Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside this Prada Tessuto Messenger Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 33 x 21 x 12 cm, this bag is well suited to daily essentials such as a phone, long wallet, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch, charger, and a compact umbrella. It can also suit a small tablet or e-reader, depending on the case. Please refer to the measurements on this page for the best size guidance.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: Yes. This style has a single adjustable shoulder strap with an approximate drop of 60 cm at its longest, so it can suit shoulder or crossbody wear for many people. Exact fit will vary depending on your height and preferred styling.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: It is not the best choice for most laptops. The 33 cm width and 21 cm height make it better suited to everyday essentials and smaller tech such as a tablet rather than a standard laptop.
Q: Is Prada Tessuto nylon durable enough for everyday use? A: Yes. Prada Tessuto nylon is known for being lightweight, practical, and durable for regular wear, which is one reason vintage Prada nylon bags remain so popular. As this is a pre-owned piece with leather trim, we still recommend mindful use to help preserve its condition.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: This item is listed in Very Good condition. The exterior shows scuffing and creasing on the leather details, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. This is consistent with a well-kept vintage bag that has been gently used over time.
Q: How should I care for this Prada nylon bag? A: For day-to-day care, gently wipe the nylon with a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh chemicals, soaking, or abrasive cleaning. Because this bag also has leather trim and a jacquard lining, it is best to store it in a dry, well-ventilated place away from heat and damp, and to take extra care with liquids, cosmetics, and pens inside the bag.
Q: Is this bag suitable for light rain? A: Tessuto nylon generally copes better with light moisture than many delicate materials, but this is still a vintage bag with leather details. It is best to avoid heavy rain and to dry the bag gently if it becomes damp.
Q: Does this item come with any extra pieces? A: No. The product information for this listing states that no additional items are included with the bag.
Q: Where was this Prada bag made? A: The country of origin listed for this piece is Italy.
Q: How do you authenticate this Prada bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted for authenticity by specialists who assess details such as materials, construction, hardware, branding, and other model-specific features. If you would like more product information before purchasing, you are welcome to contact the team.
