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 can I fit inside the Valentino Rockstud Crossbody Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 26 × 18 × 7 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, small wallet or cardholder, keys, sunglasses and a few small cosmetics. There is an internal zipped pocket to secure valuables. Capacity will vary depending on how you organise items.
Q: Is the strap suitable for wearing crossbody? A: Yes. This piece has a single flat shoulder strap with an approximate 46 cm drop, which suits most heights for crossbody or on-shoulder wear. The strap on this vintage example is not designed to be fully removable.
Q: Are the Rockstuds heavy or sharp? Will they snag clothing? A: The pyramid studs are smooth and lightweight for everyday wear. As with any embellished bag, take care with delicate fabrics such as open knits or silk to avoid snagging.
Q: Do the studs tarnish or come loose over time? A: Valentino uses a silver/platinum-tone finish on Rockstud hardware. With regular use, fine hairline scratches or slight spotting can occur, and on rare occasions a stud may loosen. Wipe hardware with a soft dry cloth and avoid chemical polishes; a specialist leather repair service can resecure or replace studs if ever needed.
Q: What leather and lining does this bag have? A: It is crafted from grainy calfskin leather with a canvas lining and silver-tone Rockstud hardware. The front flap closes with a flip-lock, offering quick, secure access.
Q: How should I care for light ecru grainy calfskin? A: Keep the bag away from rain and oils, and avoid prolonged contact with dark denim or dyed fabrics to minimise colour transfer. Store it lightly stuffed in its dust bag to maintain shape. Clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow to air-dry; use a neutral leather conditioner sparingly after spot-testing. Do not use metal polishes on the studs.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or e-reader? A: Most mini tablets are around 19–20 cm in height and may not fit due to the bag’s 18 cm height. Slim e‑readers up to roughly 17.5 cm tall typically fit alongside smaller daily essentials. Always compare your device’s measurements to the bag’s interior space.
Q: Is this style still produced and how does it compare to current Rockstud crossbodies? A: This is a vintage Rockstud with a front flap and flip-lock closure. Current Rockstud crossbodies continue to use grainy calfskin and platinum-finish studs, with closures and exact sizing varying by season (some feature a hook-and-zip fastening and adjustable straps).
Q: How can I check key authenticity markers on a Rockstud bag? A: Many Rockstud bags include a small serial label inside a pocket, often in a contrasting colour, alongside a crisp heat-stamped logo and Made in Italy mark, consistent stud shape/finish and neat stitching. Note that some lines and production runs may differ in placement or format. A Retro Tale authenticates every item in-house before listing.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. For this bag, a dust bag is included.
