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 Guccissima Charlotte Hobo? A: With measurements of approximately 37 × 26 × 8 cm, it comfortably carries daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, a small cosmetics pouch and a compact water bottle. It also takes A4 documents and many 13-inch laptops or tablets depending on sleeve and the width of the opening—please compare your device to the measurements listed.
Q: Is this bag designed for shoulder or crossbody wear? A: The Charlotte is designed as a shoulder hobo with a single adjustable strap. It sits comfortably on the shoulder, including over light outerwear. The strap is generally not long enough for true crossbody wear for most heights.
Q: How secure is the closure on this piece? A: This specific bag features a top zip closure with an interior zipped pocket for valuables, offering secure organisation for daily use.
Q: What is Guccissima leather? A: Guccissima is genuine calf leather embossed with Gucci’s interlocking GG motif. It offers the signature look of the house pattern with the touch, patina and durability of real leather, a hallmark introduced in the mid‑2000s.
Q: How should I care for Guccissima leather? A: Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then air dry. Condition sparingly with a neutral, non-greasy leather cream and avoid petroleum or oil-heavy products. Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight and heat. When storing, loosely stuff the bag and place it in a breathable dust bag to help maintain shape.
Q: Is the leather water-resistant? A: Leather is not waterproof. Light rain is usually fine if you blot dry promptly, but avoid soaking. Never use harsh cleaners or hairdryers; allow the bag to dry naturally at room temperature.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: As listed under Accessories, this item comes with no accessories. If an item such as a dust bag or authenticity card isn’t mentioned there, it is not included.
Q: Is the Charlotte Hobo still produced by Gucci? A: This is a past-season style most commonly found on the pre-owned market today. Your piece is a vintage/pre-owned example made in Italy.
Q: How do you authenticate Gucci bags, and what about serial numbers? A: Many Gucci bags feature a leather tag with a two-line serial/style number (often 9–13 digits). Formats can vary on vintage pieces and the numbers do not directly indicate the year. At A Retro Tale, each item is authenticated through multi-point checks of materials, stamping, stitching and hardware; we do not rely on a serial number alone.
