A refined choice for office days that flow into dinner, this vintage black GG canvas Gucci handbag complements tailored looks and denim alike; with dual top handles and a secure zip closure, it keeps essentials close from morning meetings to museum nights.
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 Gucci GG Handbag? A: With approximate measurements of 30 x 18 x 8 cm, it comfortably holds daily essentials such as a long wallet, smartphone, keys, sunglasses in a hard case, a small cosmetics pouch, an A5 notebook, and a slim 500 ml bottle laid horizontally. It will not fit A4 folders or a 13-inch laptop. Most tablets up to around 11 inches may fit without a bulky case—please compare your device to the listed measurements.
Q: Does this bag have a shoulder strap? A: No. This vintage model is designed for hand carry via its dual rolled leather handles and does not include a shoulder strap. The handle drop is approximately 13 cm.
Q: Is the GG canvas water-resistant? A: GG Supreme/monogram canvas is a coated canvas that offers light water resistance and good day-to-day durability, but it is not fully waterproof. Wipe away moisture promptly and avoid soaking; take extra care with the leather trim, which is sensitive to water and oils.
Q: How should I care for the canvas and leather trim? A: For the canvas, dust regularly and wipe with a dry or slightly damp microfibre cloth; if needed, spot clean gently with a mild soap solution and allow to air-dry. Avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol-based wipes, and abrasives. For the leather trim, use a neutral leather conditioner sparingly and always patch test first. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity, to help preserve shape and colour.
Q: Will an iPad fit? A: Most 10–11 inch tablets can fit inside, depending on the case thickness. Due to the top zip and interior layout, fit may vary—please compare your device measurements with the bag’s 30 x 18 x 8 cm dimensions.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: No accessories are included with this piece. Everything that comes with the item is listed under Accessories; if it is not listed, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this Gucci bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, heat stamps, and interior tags/serials where present. Note that some earlier vintage Gucci bags may have no serial number or use legacy formats—absence of a modern code can be correct for the era.
Q: Can I add a shoulder strap or clips to the handles? A: This model does not have D-rings for a strap. Aftermarket handle clips can stress the leather and hardware over time and are not recommended. We suggest using the bag as a handheld style as intended.
Q: How can I prevent corner scuffs and colour transfer? A: Avoid prolonged rubbing against rough surfaces, overfilling, or resting the bag on abrasive floors. With lighter canvases, minimise contact with dark denim to reduce transfer; if transfer occurs, spot clean gently and let it air-dry. Storing stuffed and upright helps reduce pressure on corners.
