Elevate a smart-casual day out or an after-work dinner with this vintage Givenchy hobo. Crafted in black monogram canvas with leather trim and gold-tone hardware, it brings understated polish. The single shoulder strap and secure top zip keep daily essentials close, making it an easy companion from city errands to evening 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 this Givenchy Hobo Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 32 × 32 × 16 cm, it comfortably holds daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, small makeup pouch, a water bottle, and A4 documents. Most 13-inch laptops in a slim sleeve will fit, though the curved zip opening of a hobo can make bulkier devices a tighter entry—please check your device against the measurements.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody? A: This model has a single flat shoulder strap with an approximate 18 cm drop. It is designed for shoulder carry and is not intended for crossbody wear.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. For this listing, no additional items are included beyond the bag itself.
Q: How should I care for the 4G jacquard canvas and leather trim? A: Gently brush off dust, then spot clean the jacquard with a soft, slightly damp cloth and a tiny amount of mild soap if needed, blotting rather than rubbing. Avoid soaking the fabric. Keep leather trim dry; if required, wipe with a clean cloth and use a neutral leather conditioner sparingly on the leather only. Store stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct heat and sunlight.
Q: Is it water-resistant? A: Jacquard fabric and leather are not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain and prolonged moisture. If the bag gets wet, blot dry immediately with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry naturally. If you choose to use a fabric protector, test first on a discreet area and avoid the leather trim.
Q: The inner label states a country of origin. Does that affect authenticity? A: Authentic Givenchy items are produced in multiple countries depending on the model and materials. The country shown on the label reflects where that specific piece was made and does not determine authenticity by itself. Authenticity is best assessed by overall construction, materials, markings and unique internal codes.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is examined by specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and internal codes. The unique serial code for this item is S10151, which we have recorded for traceability. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide more details on request.
Q: What condition should I expect on arrival? A: This item is in Very Good condition with light signs of use inside and out. The hardware shows scratches and some tarnish, consistent with age and careful wear. Please review the product photos and product information for full details.
Q: Can I improve or slow hardware tarnish? A: Gold‑tone finishes can dull over time with exposure to air, skin oils and humidity. After use, gently wipe hardware with a dry microfibre cloth and store the bag in a cool, dry place. Avoid abrasive polishes on plated hardware; if deeper refresh is desired, consult a professional handbag care service.
