Perfect for city breaks and weekend getaways, this vintage Gucci pouch slips into a tote or carry-on to keep small essentials neatly organised. Equally suited to daily commutes or dinner dates, it doubles as a minimalist clutch when you’re travelling light.
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 this pouch hold day to day? A: With external measurements of approximately 16 × 10.5 × 8.5 cm, it comfortably carries a passport, compact wallet or card holder, keys, lip balm and travel‑size cosmetics, and a small power bank. Capacity is roughly 1.3–1.4 litres using external dimensions, so usable space will be slightly less depending on how you pack.
Q: Will it fit my smartphone? A: It suits most standard smartphones up to around 15 cm in length. Larger “Plus/Max” models may be a tight fit, especially with a thick case. Please compare your device’s measurements with the pouch dimensions for certainty.
Q: Is the GG canvas water‑resistant? A: GG canvas is a coated fabric designed to be durable and resist light moisture. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or prolonged exposure to water and promptly blotting dry if damp. Take extra care to keep the brown leather trim and edges dry.
Q: How should I clean the canvas safely? A: Spot clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth and a drop of mild soap, then wipe with clean water and air‑dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol, bleach, abrasive sponges, or soaking the material. Repeat gently if needed rather than scrubbing.
Q: How do I care for the leather trim? A: Wipe the leather with a dry, soft cloth after use. If conditioning is desired, use a quality leather conditioner sparingly on the leather areas only, first testing on a small, hidden spot. Keep oils and lotions away to prevent darkening.
Q: How should I clean the dark silver‑tone hardware? A: Gently buff with a soft, dry cloth to restore shine. If needed, use a non‑abrasive metal polish applied to the cloth (not directly on the bag) and avoid contact with canvas or leather. Fine hairline scratches are normal on vintage hardware.
Q: Does this pouch come with a strap or wristlet? A: No. This vintage pouch is designed to be handheld with a zip closure and does not include a strap or dedicated strap attachments.
Q: Can I use it as a toiletry or cosmetics bag? A: Yes; the compact, structured shape works well for travel essentials. As the interior is fabric‑lined, we suggest keeping liquids in leak‑proof travel bottles or a secondary pouch to prevent spills and stains.
Q: How should I store it when not in use? A: Store in a breathable dust bag, lightly filled with acid‑free tissue to maintain shape. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Avoid overstuffing in use to preserve the seams and structure.
Q: How do you authenticate this piece? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes a multi‑point inspection of materials, stitching, hardware and brand stamps. Typical Gucci identifiers include a “Gucci made in italy” heat‑stamp and an interior serial number on a leather tag (often 10–13 digits in two rows on newer pieces). Some older vintage items may display different formats or, occasionally, lack a code altogether. Everything we sell is guaranteed authentic.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Everything included is listed on this page. For this piece, no accessories are included.
