Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits in this Gucci Jackie Hobo Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 32 × 24.5 × 3 cm, it comfortably carries a long wallet, phone, keys, passport, compact, and other slim daily essentials. A small tablet or e‑reader can fit, but the top opening and slim 3 cm depth mean bulky items like large water bottles or thick pouches are not ideal.
Q: How is it carried and is the strap adjustable? A: This vintage Jackie is designed for shoulder carry with a single flat strap and an approximate 20 cm drop. The strap is not designed for crossbody wear and is not detachable or adjustable on this example.
Q: How does the piston‑lock closure work and is it secure? A: The Jackie’s signature piston closure is a push‑and‑slide mechanism. To open, press or slide the metal piston to release the curved tab. To close, align the tab and press until it clicks. It is a secure, discreet closure that defines the Jackie’s clean silhouette.
Q: What is the history behind the Jackie bag? A: The Jackie is one of Gucci’s most recognisable designs, dating to the 1960s and famously associated with Jackie Kennedy. Its crescent shape and piston closure are hallmarks that have appeared across vintage and later re‑editions.
Q: What are the materials on this piece and how should I care for them? A: This bag features brown leather with GG canvas trim and gold‑tone hardware. Wipe leather and coated canvas gently with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged moisture or heat. Store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, keeping it away from direct sunlight and humidity. If the bag becomes damp, pat dry immediately and allow it to air dry naturally.
Q: Does it come with a longer strap like some newer Jackie 1961 versions? A: No. Some recent reissues include an additional long strap, but this vintage example comes as shown with the single shoulder strap only.
Q: What authenticity details should I expect on a vintage Gucci Jackie? A: Many Gucci bags have an interior leather tag with a Gucci made in Italy stamp and a serial number on the reverse. Formats can vary by era, and serial numbers alone are not definitive proof. At A Retro Tale, each item is authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, and stamps.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece comes with a dust bag and brand booklets. Everything included is listed under the product information section; if an item is not listed there, it is not included—contact us if you would like clarification.
Q: Is GG canvas water‑resistant? A: GG Supreme‑style coated canvas is generally more resistant to light splashes than untreated fabrics, but it is not fully waterproof. Avoid heavy rain and wipe dry promptly. Leather trim and hardware should also be kept away from moisture to minimise marks and tarnish.
