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 this Prada Tessuto Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 34 x 26 x 17 cm, this tote is well suited to everyday essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, cosmetics pouch, water bottle, and a small tablet. It offers practical day-to-day capacity while keeping a lightweight feel. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Can this bag be carried comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. This style is designed as a tote with dual flat shoulder straps, and the listed strap drop is approximately 25 cm. For most people, that allows comfortable shoulder carry, though the fit can vary slightly depending on your frame and what you are wearing.
Q: What is Prada Tessuto? A: Tessuto refers to Prada’s signature nylon material, loved for being lightweight, practical, and easy to wear. It became one of the house’s most recognisable materials and is especially popular for everyday bags because it combines a clean look with durable performance.
Q: Is a Prada Tessuto tote a good everyday bag? A: Yes, this style is a strong everyday option if you want something light, roomy, and easier to manage than a full leather tote. The nylon body helps keep the bag light, while the leather trim adds structure and a more polished finish.
Q: What condition is this particular bag in? A: This item is listed in very good condition. The exterior shows scuffing on the leather corners, the interior has light traces of use, and the silver-tone hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches. These details are reflected in the price and are typical signs of gentle wear on a vintage piece.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: For routine care, gently wipe the bag with a soft dry cloth and store it in a well-ventilated place away from heat and moisture. Take extra care with liquids, cosmetics, and loose items inside the bag so the lining stays clean. Avoid harsh cleaning products and aggressive home treatments, especially on the leather trim and corners.
Q: Is this bag made in Italy? A: Yes. This piece is marked as made in Italy, which is consistent with many classic Prada bags and part of the appeal of vintage Prada craftsmanship.
Q: Does this item come with any original product information or extras? A: No. This item is listed as having no original product information included. If anything is included with an item, it will always be stated clearly in the product information on the page.
Q: How do you authenticate this Prada bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked for authenticity by specialists who assess details such as materials, construction, hardware, branding, and interior details. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell, so you can shop vintage with confidence.
