Guccissima Sukey Bag

Q: What is Guccissima leather?
A: Guccissima is Gucci's embossed leather featuring the interlocking GG motif pressed into the surface. On the Sukey, it gives the bag a recognisable Gucci look while feeling softer and more refined than coated canvas styles.

Q: What typically fits inside this medium Sukey bag?
A: With measurements of approximately 36 x 22 x 12 cm, it is well suited to everyday essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetics pouch and a small tablet. It is roomy for daily use, but it is not the best choice for most laptops or larger A4 paperwork.

Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder?
A: This bag has an approximate 18 cm handle drop, so it can sit under the shoulder for many people, but the fit is fairly close. It is often most comfortable carried by hand or in the crook of the arm, especially when wearing thicker coats.

Q: Is the Sukey a good everyday bag?
A: Yes. The Sukey is widely appreciated as an everyday Gucci style because it offers a practical medium size, a soft feminine shape and enough room for day-to-day essentials without feeling overly bulky.

Q: Does Guccissima leather wear well over time?
A: Generally, yes. Many owners find that Guccissima leather softens nicely with use and tends to wear better than canvas Sukey versions around the pleats and corners. As with any vintage leather bag, gentle care and careful storage help preserve the finish.

Q: What condition is this specific bag in?
A: This piece is in very good vintage condition overall. The exterior shows light traces of use, the lining has stains, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the product information and images for the clearest impression of its current condition.

A: This listing is sold with no additional items included. Everything that comes with the bag is shown in the product information, so if an item is not listed there, it is not part of this sale.

Q: How should I care for vintage Guccissima leather?
A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after use and store it in a breathable dust bag, lightly filled to help maintain its shape. Avoid direct sunlight, heat, humidity, rain and harsh cleaning products, as these can affect the leather and embossed finish.
