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 Christian Dior Trotter Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 40 x 31 x 18 cm, it offers roomy capacity for daily essentials plus extras such as a long wallet, phone, pouch, water bottle, cosmetics case and a light cardigan or tablet. Its size also makes it suitable for work, day trips or light overnight use. For the best guidance, please refer to the Measurements on this page.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: This piece has dual rolled leather handles with an approximate handle drop of 14 cm. It is primarily designed for hand or arm carry. Some buyers may be able to slip it over the shoulder with very light clothing, but it is not a dedicated shoulder bag and it does not include a longer strap.
Q: Does this bag close securely? A: Yes. It features a top zip closure, which helps keep your belongings covered and secure during everyday use or travel.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: This item is sold with no additional original extras. If a dust bag, lock, key, strap, box or authenticity card is not shown in the product information, it is not included with this piece.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. The exterior shows light traces of use with slight staining on the canvas, the interior has light wear, and the gold-tone hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As a vintage item, gentle signs of age are normal.
Q: Is slight staining on the canvas common on vintage Dior Trotter bags? A: Yes, light marks, storage wear and staining can occur on vintage Dior canvas over time, especially on older monogram styles. This bag’s staining is already reflected in the condition notes, and many collectors accept minor cosmetic wear as part of the character of an authentic vintage piece.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number or authenticity card? A: No serial number is listed for this specific piece, and no authenticity card is included. That is not automatically unusual for older Dior bags, as vintage Dior labelling and date-code practices changed over time. Authentication should always consider the full construction, canvas pattern, logo details, stitching and hardware rather than one element alone.
Q: How do you authenticate this Dior bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, construction, stitching, hardware, branding details and overall consistency with authentic Dior production. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: How should I care for vintage Trotter canvas and leather trim? A: Wipe the canvas gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid rubbing stains aggressively, as moisture or solvents can spread marks on older canvas. Keep the bag away from direct heat, prolonged sunlight, rain and dark denim or other sources of colour transfer. Store it stuffed lightly in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape. For deeper cleaning or stain treatment, a trusted luxury bag specialist is the safest choice.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label states France.
