Very Good Condition

Ideal for workdays, city outings or smart everyday wear, it brings refined vintage style to any look.
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 Saint Laurent Downtown Cabas Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 35 x 18 x 13 cm, it is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, a small beauty pouch and a compact tablet or e-reader. It is roomy for everyday use, but it is not likely to fit most laptops. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. This piece has dual rolled handles with an approximate handle drop of 10.5 cm, and it also includes a detachable shoulder strap with an approximate drop of 45 cm. That makes it suitable for hand carry or shoulder wear.
Q: Does this bag come with the original extras? A: The product information for this item lists a dust bag, detachable shoulder strap and clochette. If something is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Is the Downtown Cabas a structured bag? A: Yes. The Downtown Cabas is known for a more structured, polished silhouette than the older slouchier Downtown styles. This example also features metal protective feet at the base, which help support its shape during everyday use.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is inside? A: This bag has a zip closure for secure everyday use. Inside, it features tonal lining and one internal pocket, making it practical for keeping smaller essentials organised.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This item is listed in Very Good condition. There is minor wear on the corners, light traces of use inside, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As a vintage piece, gentle signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: How should I care for the cream leather? A: Light-coloured leather benefits from careful handling. Store the bag in its dust bag, keep it lightly stuffed to help maintain shape, avoid prolonged sunlight and moisture, and take care around dark denim or strongly dyed fabrics that may transfer colour. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, a trusted leather specialist is the safest choice.
Q: Is this a good everyday bag? A: Yes, for many buyers it works well as an everyday bag thanks to its zip closure, practical interior, top handles and detachable strap. It is best for daily essentials rather than bulky items.
Q: How do you authenticate Saint Laurent bags? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked for authenticity by specialists who assess details such as materials, construction, hardware, stamps and overall consistency with the model. If you would like extra reassurance, you are welcome to contact us for more product information.
