Q: Why is the Balenciaga City bag such an iconic style? A: The City bag is one of Balenciaga’s most recognisable designs, known for its soft moto-inspired look, braided handles, long zip pulls, and studded hardware. The house reintroduced the line as Le City on 11 April 2024, which underlines the design’s lasting popularity.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece includes a detachable shoulder strap and tags. Everything included with the purchase is listed in the Product information for this item.
Q: Does this bag include the signature Balenciaga mirror? A: Many City bags are known for a mirror detail, but it is not listed in the Product information for this specific piece. Unless otherwise stated, you should assume only the items named on this page are included.
Q: What materials and details does this bag have? A: This bag is crafted in white leather with gold-tone hardware, dual handles, a detachable shoulder strap, black fabric lining, and a zip closure. It is made in Italy.
Q: How should I care for white leather? A: Light leather benefits from gentle handling. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth after use, store it in a breathable dust bag, keep it away from dark denim and heavily dyed fabrics to help reduce colour transfer, and avoid harsh cleaners or prolonged direct sunlight.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is Very Good. The exterior shows light traces of use, the inside has a small mark, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: Does the bag have a serial number or authenticity code? A: No serial number is listed in the product information for this item. On Balenciaga bags, details such as interior tags, hardware, leather quality, and overall construction are used during authentication, and A Retro Tale carefully vets every item before sale.
