This vintage Prada Madras Woven Pushlock Flap Bag in red and white woven leather with silver-tone hardware is in very good condition. Finished with a chain-link strap and push-lock flap closure, it is a striking choice for summer events, city outings, or adding a bold accent to day-to-evening looks.
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 Prada Madras Woven Pushlock Flap Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 24 × 18 × 5 cm, it is best suited to day-to-evening essentials such as a phone, card holder or slim wallet, keys, lipstick, and sunglasses. Bulkier items or a tablet are unlikely to fit comfortably.
Q: Does this bag close securely? A: Yes. It features a structured flap with a push-lock closure, which helps keep essentials secure while giving the bag its classic polished look.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: The bag has a chain-link strap with a woven leather shoulder pad and an adjustable strap measurement listed at 30 cm. It is ideal for shoulder wear, and crossbody fit may depend on your height and how you prefer the bag to sit.
Q: Does it have any internal pockets? A: Yes. The interior is lined in red leather and includes one internal pocket for organising smaller essentials.
Q: What is Madras woven leather? A: Madras woven leather is a distinctive Prada finish that gives the bag a textured, handcrafted look. It is visually striking and collectible, but like many woven and raised leather finishes, it should be handled with care to minimise rubbing on corners and edges.
Q: What condition is this vintage bag in? A: This piece is listed in Very Good condition. The exterior shows scuffing on the corners, the interior has light traces of use and a vintage smell, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the condition notes and images carefully for the best sense of wear.
Q: How should I care for the woven leather and hardware? A: Gently wipe the bag with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaning products, excessive moisture, direct heat, and overfilling. Store it in a breathable dust bag in a well-ventilated place to help preserve the leather, shape, and finish.
Q: What does the vintage smell note mean? A: A vintage smell usually reflects age and storage history rather than a structural issue. Many buyers simply air the bag out in a dry, shaded, well-ventilated space over time, but strong sprays or household cleaners should be avoided on leather.
Q: Does this bag come with anything extra? A: No extra items are included with this piece. Everything included is described in the product information, and this listing notes no additional items.
Q: How do you verify authenticity? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by in-house experts using detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and overall craftsmanship, so buyers can shop vintage with confidence.
