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 Suede Horsebit Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 30 x 23 x 5 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, long purse, keys, sunglasses, a card holder, and a slim make-up pouch. Because it has a fairly slim depth, it is better for flatter items than bulky ones.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. The bag has dual rolled leather handles and an approximate drop of 22 cm, which will usually allow shoulder carry as well as hand carry, depending on your frame and what you are wearing.
Q: Does this bag have a zip or flap closure? A: No. This style has an open top, so it offers quick access to your belongings. If you prefer extra organisation, a slim pouch inside can be a useful addition.
Q: What is the interior like? A: The interior is lined in black GG canvas and has an easy, open format that suits everyday essentials well.
Q: What is the Horsebit detail? A: The Horsebit is one of Gucci’s best-known design codes, inspired by equestrian hardware. On this bag, the dark-toned Horsebit detail gives it the distinctive vintage Gucci look associated with the line.
Q: Is suede practical for regular use? A: Suede gives the bag a soft, rich finish and beautiful vintage character, but it is more delicate than coated canvas or heavily grained leather. It works well for careful regular use, though it benefits from protection from rain, rough surfaces, and heavy friction.
Q: How should I care for this suede bag? A: For routine care, gently remove surface dust with a soft dry cloth or a suede brush used very lightly. Store the bag in a breathable dust bag, keep it away from direct sunlight, heat, humidity, and rain, and avoid overfilling it. If it gets wet, blot it gently and let it dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid harsh cleaners, creams, or heavy protective products unless advised by a specialist.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: The bag is in good vintage condition. The suede shows signs of use, the leather has scuffing and scratches mainly on the corners and base, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information for this piece states that no additional items are included.
Q: How do you authenticate this Gucci bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is reviewed by experts using checks such as materials, construction, stitching, lining, hardware, and brand markings. With vintage Gucci pieces, overall craftsmanship and consistency are especially important when assessing authenticity.
