Perfect for cocktail parties, gallery openings or dinner dates, this black croc-embossed Saint Laurent Kate Wallet on Chain elevates any evening look. Wear on the shoulder and keep essentials and cards organised beneath its magnetic flap—effortless polish for nights out.
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 are the size and strap drop of this Kate Wallet on Chain? A: The small Kate WOC measures approximately 19 × 12.5 × 3.5 cm. On this piece the chain strap drop is about 60 cm for easy crossbody wear; Saint Laurent lists a 55 cm strap drop for comparable chain wallets.
Q: What typically fits inside? A: The Kate WOC is made for essentials: a smartphone (up to around 16 cm length; larger models fit best without a bulky case), cards in the built‑in slots, notes, a key and a slim lipstick. A separate bulky wallet will reduce capacity, so we recommend using the integrated card slots and zip pocket.
Q: Is the chain removable and can I wear it crossbody or on the shoulder? A: Many Saint Laurent chain wallets feature a removable chain and a drop suited to crossbody. You can also double the chain under the flap for a shorter shoulder look, or tuck it inside to carry as a clutch. Please check our photos and product information for this exact piece.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: It typically includes around six card slots, one bill slot, a main compartment and a zipped pocket, secured by a magnetic flap closure—ideal for streamlined day‑to‑evening carry.
Q: Is the tassel removable? A: No. On Kate Tassel models, the chain tassel is a fixed design element and is not intended to be detached.
Q: What leather is “crocodile‑embossed”? A: It is calf leather pressed with a crocodile‑style pattern using heat and pressure. It delivers the textured look of exotic skin but is not made from crocodile leather.
Q: How should I care for croc‑embossed leather? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use; avoid heavy oils or over‑conditioning which can soften and flatten the emboss; keep away from prolonged moisture and direct heat; and store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape. Avoid colour transfer from dark denim or dyed fabrics.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. If an item such as a dust bag or card is not listed there, it is not included—contact us if you’d like us to confirm specifics.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every item is meticulously inspected by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and serial markings. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further details on request.
Q: What hardware colour is this piece? A: This piece features silver‑toned hardware with the YSL monogram and tassel, as shown in the photos and product information.
