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 Burberry Barrel Tennis Racket Bag? A: Its long, slim shape is designed for tennis use and is best suited to one racket plus a few flatter essentials such as tennis balls, a small towel, papers or slim personal items. With dimensions of approximately 73 x 28 x 12 cm, it is more compact than a standard holdall, so bulky everyday packing is likely to be a squeeze.
Q: Will it fit a full-size adult tennis racket? A: Most adult rackets should fit. The bag measures 73 cm across, and standard tennis rackets are usually within that range. Very long frames, oversized head shapes or a racket inside a thick secondary cover may fit more snugly, so it is best to compare with the Measurements shown on this page.
Q: Can this bag be used as an everyday or travel bag? A: It can certainly be styled that way, but it is primarily a slim sports-shaped vintage bag rather than a roomy weekend holdall. It works best for a statement carry with light essentials rather than heavy daily packing.
Q: Does this piece come with a shoulder strap? A: No shoulder strap is listed in the product information. This piece features a single top handle with an approximate handle drop of 4 cm and is intended to be carried by hand.
Q: What materials and details does this bag have? A: According to the product information, it features Burberry check canvas with brown leather trim, brass hardware, a black leather lining and a double zip closure. It is also marked as made in Italy.
Q: What condition is this vintage bag in? A: It is graded Very Good condition. The exterior shows minor spots on the canvas, scratches on the hardware and wear to the bottom studs, while the interior shows light traces of use. The hardware also has scratches and tarnish consistent with age and careful prior wear.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information lists tags as included. If another item is not listed in the product information, you should assume it is not included unless confirmed separately.
Q: How should I care for vintage Burberry check canvas and leather trim? A: Gentle care is best. Wipe the canvas with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth, keep it away from heavy rain and prolonged direct heat, and avoid overfilling the bag so the shape and zip line stay neat. It is also wise to take care with dark denim, pens and cosmetics to help prevent colour transfer or marks.
Q: Is this an authentic Burberry item? A: Yes. A Retro Tale states that its items are vetted by in-house experts. On vintage Burberry pieces, buyers also commonly look closely at the quality of the check pattern, materials, hardware, stitching and interior branding when assessing authenticity.
Q: Why is this style appealing to collectors? A: Vintage Burberry sports bags are sought after because they combine the house’s iconic check with a less common racket-bag silhouette. Compared with more common Burberry totes or shoulder bags, this shape feels more niche and distinctive for collectors who like vintage sporting or travel-inspired pieces.
