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 Stirrup Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 42 x 32 x 23 cm, this is a roomy everyday bag. It can usually hold a wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetics pouch, a water bottle and other daily essentials comfortably. A slim tablet or documents should also fit, but we recommend comparing your own items with the Measurements shown on this page for the best guide.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. This piece has dual flat shoulder straps with an approximate handle drop of 23 cm, making it suitable for shoulder carry for many wearers.
Q: Does this bag come with a long strap or any extra product information? A: No additional product information is listed for this item, and no detachable long strap is noted. It is designed to be carried by its fixed shoulder straps.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a foldover strap closure, which helps keep contents in place while still allowing easy access. As with many flap-style bags, it is best not to overfill it if you want the closure to sit neatly.
Q: What makes the Gucci Stirrup line distinctive? A: The Stirrup line is known for equestrian-inspired detailing, a long-standing theme in Gucci’s design history. It has a refined heritage look centred on the stirrup-inspired hardware.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This bag is listed in very good vintage condition. It shows rubbing on the edges, slight wear on the bottom, a pen mark inside, and light surface scratches to the shiny hardware.
Q: How should I care for vintage Gucci leather? A: Gently wipe the leather with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid heavy rain, heat and prolonged direct sunlight, and store the bag stuffed with tissue in a breathable dust bag when not in use. For deeper cleaning, marks or conditioning, use a trusted leather specialist rather than harsh household products.
Q: Is a serial number required to authenticate a vintage Gucci bag? A: Not always. A serial number or interior tag can be helpful, but it should never be used on its own. Authenticity is assessed through the overall quality of the leather, lining, stitching, hardware, construction and consistency of the model details. For this item, no serial number is listed in the product information.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin listed for this piece is Italy, which aligns with Gucci’s long-standing Italian manufacturing heritage.
