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 Shoulder Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 30 × 16 × 6 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, small wallet, keys, sunglasses, and a compact cosmetics pouch. A slim tablet up to about 8 inches can fit horizontally depending on its case. For exact capacity, please refer to the Measurements on this page.
Q: Is the strap adjustable, and can I wear it crossbody? A: The bag has fixed dual leather shoulder straps with an approximate 25 cm drop. It is designed for hand or shoulder carry and is not intended to be worn crossbody.
Q: Is Prada’s Tessuto nylon water-resistant? A: Tessuto nylon is known for being hard-wearing and water-resistant for everyday use, but it is not fully waterproof. Light rain or splashes can usually be wiped away; avoid soaking the bag and dry it promptly if it gets wet.
Q: How should I clean and care for the nylon and leather trim? A: For the nylon, spot clean with a soft cloth slightly dampened with lukewarm water and a small amount of mild soap, then blot dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach. Keep the leather trim dry; if needed, wipe it with a dry, soft cloth only. Let the bag air-dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help it keep its shape.
Q: How can I minimise creasing or wrinkling in Tessuto nylon? A: Gently stuff the bag when not in use and store it upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid pressing it under heavy items. Persistent wrinkles usually relax with careful storage over time.
Q: Does this Prada bag have a serial number or microchip, and will it come with an authenticity card? A: Many Prada bags include a small white factory/QA tag with numbers inside the pocket; older Tessuto pieces may or may not have an authenticity card from the original purchase. Newer Re-Nylon items can include an NFC tag linked to a digital certificate, but vintage Tessuto models generally do not. Everything included with this listing is shown under product information.
Q: Can Prada repair or replace parts like hardware or straps on vintage Tessuto bags? A: Prada offers after-sales repairs on a case-by-case basis, and authorised repair partners can also assist with cleaning and part replacements where feasible. Availability, lead times and costs vary by assessment, age of the item and parts availability.
Q: Is Tessuto nylon prone to scratches or colour transfer? A: Tessuto is more abrasion-resistant than many smooth leathers and is relatively easy to maintain. As with any fabric, avoid rough surfaces and prolonged contact with dark or untreated denim to minimise marks or colour transfer.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information for this listing indicates that no additional items are included; the purchase is for the bag only. If an item is not listed under product information, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly vetted by in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, brand markings and interior tags. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further details on request.
