Q: Does this item come with any extras? A: Yes. According to the product information, this item includes a detachable shoulder strap and a mirror. If another extra is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This bag is listed in good condition. The exterior shows fraying on the handle, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos and condition notes carefully for the most accurate impression.
Q: What is special about the Brogues version of the City bag? A: The Brogues variation is loved for adding decorative brogue-style detailing to the classic City silhouette. It keeps the signature Balenciaga look, known for its relaxed shape, braided handles, front zip pocket and distinctive hardware, while giving the design a more detailed and fashion-forward finish.
Q: Will this bag fit a laptop? A: It may fit some smaller or slim laptops diagonally, but we would not recommend buying it specifically as a laptop bag without comparing your device measurements first. A protective sleeve is also advisable if you plan to carry tech inside.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin listed for this piece is Italy.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Balenciaga City bag? A: For routine care, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, loosely filled to help maintain its shape. As this example has fraying on the handle, it is best not to overload it.
Q: Is the grey colour easy to style? A: Yes. Grey is one of the most versatile shades for the City bag and pairs easily with black, denim, neutrals and softer tones. It gives the bag an understated look while still highlighting the signature Brogues detailing.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully inspected by specialists using detailed checks of construction, materials, hardware, finishing details and brand markings. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell.
