From office commutes to dinner dates, its spacious silhouette and secure top zip keep everything in place while the signature monogram adds refined polish.
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 Fendi Zucca Suede Bag? A: With approximate measurements 39 × 26 × 16 cm, it comfortably holds A4 documents, a 13-inch laptop in a slim sleeve, a long wallet, phone, keys and a small pouch or 500 ml bottle. Capacity depends on how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap or extras? A: This piece has dual rolled leather handles (approx. 18 cm drop) and does not include a long crossbody strap. Everything included is listed in the product information section; if an item such as a dust bag or card is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: What does ‘Zucca’ mean, and how is it different from ‘Zucchino’? A: Zucca refers to Fendi’s iconic FF monogram, created in the 1960s, usually shown in a larger scale. Zucchino is a smaller, tighter version of the same motif. This bag features the larger Zucca pattern in suede.
Q: Is suede suitable for everyday use and rain? A: Suede is durable with proper care but is sensitive to moisture and stains. Before first use, treat the bag with a suede-specific protector, avoid heavy rain, and allow any light moisture to dry naturally away from heat. Regularly brush the nap to keep it looking fresh.
Q: How can I prevent colour transfer on suede (for example, from dark denim)? A: New or unwashed denim can release dye that may transfer onto lighter materials. Minimise prolonged contact with dark garments, apply a protective suede spray, and avoid friction against clothing. If transfer occurs, gently brush the nap; for persistent marks, seek a professional cleaner.
Q: There is a light vintage scent inside—how can I reduce it safely? A: Air the bag in a cool, dry room away from direct sunlight. Place odour absorbers nearby (such as baking-soda sachets or activated charcoal) but never sprinkle powders directly onto suede. Avoid perfumes or harsh cleaners; a specialist leather-care service can assist if needed.
Q: How do you authenticate this Fendi bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is verified by our in-house experts through multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, brand stamps and serial/production tags. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share additional photos or details on request.
Q: What serial numbers or security tags should I expect on vintage Fendi bags? A: Many Fendi bags from the 1980s onward include a 15–17 character serial number on a leather or fabric tag. Around 2004 some styles added a hologram sticker, and in the 2010s many moved to sewn-in RFID fabric tags. Placement varies by model and era, and a number alone does not guarantee authenticity.
Q: How should I store this suede bag? A: Store it loosely stuffed to support its shape, in a breathable dust bag, and away from direct sunlight and humidity. Keep it separate from dark or untreated leather items to prevent colour transfer, and reapply suede protector periodically as part of routine care.
