Q: Does it come with a strap or any extras?
A: No strap is listed in the product information, so it should be treated as a handheld pouch. No additional items are included with this piece.

Q: What is the condition of this vintage item?
A: It is listed in very good condition overall. There is minor wear on the corners, light traces of use inside, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.

Q: How should I care for vintage GG canvas and leather trim?
A: After use, gently wipe it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from direct light, heat, humidity, rain and rough surfaces. If it gets wet, dry it straight away with a soft cloth. Gucci advises avoiding cleaning or protective products that could alter the finish, so deeper cleaning is best left to a specialist.

Q: Does every Gucci pouch have a serial number or NFC authenticity tag?
A: Not necessarily. Gucci’s newer NFC authenticity tag is only available on selected items, and serial numbers cannot be confirmed through a public Gucci database. A number tag can support authentication, but it is not proof on its own. No serial number is noted in the available product information for this pouch.
