An elegant choice for polished everyday wear, Bottega Veneta’s black Intrecciato medium hobo transitions effortlessly from office to dinner. Understated and versatile, it carries your daily essentials with quiet luxury for commutes, meetings and weekend plans.
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 Intrecciato Medium Hobo? A: With approximate measurements of 40 × 25 × 2 cm, it comfortably carries a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, and a small cosmetics pouch. A4 documents and a tablet fit slimly. Due to the curved zip opening on the Medium Veneta, most 13-inch laptops will be a tight fit and may not pass the opening; if you plan to carry a laptop regularly, consider a larger Veneta size or compare your device dimensions with the Measurements on this page.
Q: Is the handle drop comfortable on the shoulder? A: Yes. This piece has a single Intrecciato handle with an approximate 15 cm drop designed to sit neatly under the arm for shoulder carry. The handle is fixed and not adjustable.
Q: Does the bag close securely and what is the interior like? A: The bag has a zip-top closure for secure carry. Inside, you’ll find a beige suede lining with one internal zip pocket for small essentials, as noted in the product information.
Q: How should I care for the Intrecciato nappa leather? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid prolonged exposure to rain, oils, or direct heat/sunlight. Store the bag loosely stuffed in its dust bag to maintain the hobo shape and protect the weave. For deep cleaning, colour touch-ups, or repairs, we recommend professional aftercare; the brand also offers care services on select bags.
Q: Is the suede lining delicate and how can I protect it? A: Suede is naturally supple and can show marks from pens, liquids, and dark items. Use small pouches for cosmetics and pens, and consider a lightweight bag organiser or fabric liner to minimise transfer and friction. Avoid placing sharp objects directly against the lining.
Q: Do Bottega Veneta bags have serial numbers or cards? A: Many Veneta bags include a discreet interior tag with a multi-digit serial code; the presence of an authenticity card varies, especially on vintage pieces. Everything included with this item is listed under product information; for this piece, a dust bag and mirror are included. As always, A Retro Tale has authenticated this bag through rigorous multi-point checks.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody or with a detachable strap? A: No. The classic Veneta design features a single fixed shoulder handle and does not have hardware for an additional or detachable strap.
Q: Is the bag heavy to carry? A: The Veneta’s soft, unstructured silhouette typically feels lighter than many structured totes. Weight can vary slightly between individual vintage pieces, but the single-strap hobo design distributes weight comfortably on the shoulder.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: External: Good with small traces of use and light corner scuffing. Interior: Very Good with light signs of use. Hardware: Shiny with light scratches. Please review all photos for the most accurate view of condition.
