Delivery & Returns
Q: What fits inside this Saint Laurent Yves St. Tropez Mombasa Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 27 cm width, 23 cm height and 3 cm depth, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, card holder or small wallet, keys, sunglasses and a few beauty items. Its slim profile makes it more of a compact shoulder bag than a roomy carry-all.
Q: Is this a shoulder bag or a handheld style? A: This piece is designed to be carried on the shoulder. It has a single shoulder strap with a drop of approximately 30 cm, which gives it a comfortable under-arm fit for most wearers.
Q: What are the signature details of the Mombasa design? A: The Mombasa line is known for its distinctive sculptural detailing and vintage fashion appeal. This St. Tropez variation features beige ruffled leather, gold-tone hardware, a horn detail on the strap and a dark suede lining, giving it a recognisable early-2000s Saint Laurent look.
Q: How does the bag close? A: The bag has a magnetic snap closure at the top, which makes it easy to open and close while keeping everyday essentials secure.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. The exterior shows cracking on the edge coating of the handle strap, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the product information carefully for the full condition details.
Q: How should I care for the leather, suede lining and horn detail? A: Handle it with clean, dry hands and avoid rain, excess moisture, heat and prolonged direct sunlight. Store it in a dust bag when not in use, and avoid overfilling to help preserve the shape. For the suede lining, use only gentle specialist care, and for the leather and horn detail, avoid harsh cleaners or oils unless advised by a professional bag restorer.
Q: Is this bag considered vintage? A: Yes. This is a vintage Saint Laurent piece, and the Mombasa family is especially appreciated for its Tom Ford-era aesthetic and distinctive statement design. Vintage bags may show minor signs of age and character, which are part of their appeal.
Q: Does the bag come with anything included? A: Yes, this item includes a dust bag. Everything included with the purchase is shown in the product information.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin listed for this piece is France.
Q: How do I know if a vintage Mombasa bag is authentic? A: Authenticity should be assessed through the overall quality of construction, leather, lining, hardware, branding details and the consistency of the design. At A Retro Tale, all items are carefully vetted for authenticity before being offered for sale.
