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 inside the Gucci Web Horsebit Hobo? A: With a width of 40 cm and the easy-access hobo silhouette, it comfortably carries daily essentials: smartphone, continental wallet, keys, sunglasses in a slim case, cosmetics pouch, an A5 diary/notebook, and a small water bottle. The interior includes a zipped pocket for valuables. Capacity can vary slightly with the bag’s natural slouch—refer to the Measurements and photos or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or laptop? A: Standard tablets (e.g., iPad, iPad Air/11-inch iPad Pro) generally fit. A 13-inch laptop is usually a squeeze due to the curved hobo opening and shallow height (16 cm); very slim devices may fit without a bulky sleeve. Compare your device’s measurements with those listed or contact us and we’ll perform a quick fit check.
Q: Are the handles adjustable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: The dual leather handles are not adjustable. This style is designed for hand or shoulder carry; the handle drop is approximately 22 cm. It is not intended for crossbody wear.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: Many Horsebit hobo editions feature an open top with a magnetic snap; others are simply open-top. This piece has a main compartment with a single interior zipped pocket as shown. Please review our photos and description for the exact closure on this item.
Q: What materials and hardware does this model use? A: This vintage example is crafted in black GG canvas with green-red web stripes, black leather trim and dual leather handles, and gold-tone horsebit hardware with a chain detail. It’s lined in tonal fabric and made in Italy, as stated in the listing.
Q: How should I care for GG canvas, the web stripe and leather trim? A: Keep the bag away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight. Gently wipe canvas and the web stripe with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh cleaners. Be mindful of colour transfer, especially from dark denim onto lighter fabrics and the webbing. Condition smooth leather trim sparingly with a neutral product after testing on an inconspicuous area. Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid overfilling to preserve the hobo shape and hardware alignment.
Q: Where are Gucci serial numbers and brand markings located, and how is dating handled? A: Most Gucci bags include an interior leather tag stamped “GUCCI” with a serial/model number on the reverse; placement and format vary by era. Vintage pieces can differ and some may have worn or faint codes. We’re happy to provide close-up photos and help date this specific item on request. Authenticity does not rely on a single code—our experts assess materials, stitching, stamps and overall construction.
Q: Is the Web Horsebit Hobo still produced? A: Gucci continues to use the Horsebit motif across current collections, but specific vintage Web Horsebit hobo configurations like this are typically discontinued. The pre-loved market is the best way to find these exact styles and colourways.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This piece is delivered with a dust bag as noted. Any included items are listed under “Accessories.” If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to contact us to confirm.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi-point authentication by our in-house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps/serials and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
