The cream canvas with black polka dots, dual shoulder straps and drawstring top keep essentials chic and secure from morning errands to afternoon gallery visits.
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 Saint Laurent Kahala Polka Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 37 × 37 × 1.5 cm, it comfortably holds A4 documents, a 13-inch laptop in a slim sleeve, a tablet, large smartphone, wallet, keys and a small pouch. Its slim profile is best suited to flatter items rather than bulky bottles. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: How does it carry on the shoulder? A: The strap drop is approximately 20 cm, which sits well on the shoulder with light layers. Many users find a 20 cm drop can feel snug over thick winter coats, so consider this if you prefer extra clearance.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a drawstring closure that cinches the top for everyday security. For valuables such as a phone or cardholder, we recommend using the internal zipped pocket. As with most drawstring totes, it is not fully zipped closed at the top.
Q: What materials is it made from and how should I care for it? A: It is crafted from cream canvas with black polka dots, black leather trim and silver-tone hardware, with a black fabric lining. For care, gently spot-clean the canvas with mild soap and cool water, avoid soaking the leather trim, and air-dry away from direct heat. Do not machine-wash. Store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help retain shape.
Q: Is the Kahala considered a vintage style? A: Yes, the Kahala is a discontinued Saint Laurent style and is typically offered today as a pre-owned/vintage piece on the resale market.
Q: Are the straps adjustable or removable? A: This example has dual flat shoulder straps with an approximate 20 cm drop and is designed for shoulder carry. It is not intended to be worn crossbody. Please check the photos for the exact strap set-up on this item.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section and shown in the photos. For this listing, no additional items are included unless explicitly stated there.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is examined by in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further details on request.
Q: What does Very Good Condition mean for this piece? A: It shows light, respectful wear consistent with prior use. For this specific item, the canvas has some stains, the corners are scuffed, the lining shows light traces of use and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Always review the photos and product information for the exact condition notes before purchasing.
