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 Gucci GG Waist Bag? A: With approximate external measurements of 30 × 17 × 3 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, slim wallet, passport, keys, earphones and a few small essentials. A compact tablet (around 8 inches) may fit depending on its case and how you pack. For exact sizing, please refer to the Measurements on this page.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody as well as around the waist? A: Yes. Belt bags like this can be styled either around the waist or worn crossbody across the chest or back. Use the adjustable strap to find a comfortable drop and compare with your own measurements for the best fit.
Q: What is GG Supreme/ GG canvas and how durable is it? A: GG Supreme is a coated canvas/microfibre material featuring the GG motif, paired with leather trim. It is valued for being lightweight and durable, with good resistance to everyday scuffs compared with untreated fabrics. As with all coated materials, care helps preserve its finish over time.
Q: Is the bag waterproof? A: Coated canvas is water-resistant but not fully waterproof. It will cope with light splashes, but prolonged or heavy rain can eventually penetrate. We recommend avoiding soaking and wiping off moisture promptly.
Q: How should I clean and care for the bag? A: Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, dry cloth after use. For the coated canvas, use a slightly damp cloth if needed and avoid harsh chemicals or solvents. Keep away from direct heat and sunlight, and store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain shape. Leather trim can be conditioned sparingly with a suitable neutral leather conditioner.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. If an item such as a dust bag or box is not shown there, it is not included. For this specific piece, the product information indicates no additional items are included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is vetted by our in-house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, hardware and construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further product information on request.
Q: Where is the Gucci serial number and what format should I expect? A: Most modern Gucci bags feature an interior leather tag with two rows of numbers (often totalling around 10–13 digits). Number formats can vary by era and are not unique identifiers by themselves, but they are an important reference point that we review during authentication.
Q: Can the strap be lengthened or replaced? A: The strap is integrated and adjustable within its built-in range. External extenders are not supplied by us. If you require a different fit, a professional leather specialist may advise options, but retaining original parts is recommended to preserve value.
