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 Fendi Zucca Messenger Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 36 × 28.5 × 5 cm, it’s ideal for everyday essentials: large smartphone, continental wallet or cardholder, keys, slim sunglasses in a soft case, earbuds and a small cosmetics pouch. A5 notebooks fit comfortably. A4 documents generally fit when placed horizontally; please compare your items to the Measurements or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or 13-inch laptop? A: Compact tablets and 11-inch iPad‑class devices usually fit. A slim 13‑inch laptop may fit without a bulky sleeve due to the 36 cm width, but the 5 cm depth and zip opening can make it snug—share your device’s dimensions and we’ll test the fit on this specific bag.
Q: Is the strap adjustable and can I wear it crossbody? A: Yes—the bag has a single adjustable flat shoulder strap (approx. 31 cm drop at the listed setting). It wears comfortably on the shoulder and as a high crossbody on some wearers; if you prefer a longer crossbody drop, let us know and we’ll measure the maximum setting for this piece.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior like? A: It features a top zip closure for everyday security. Inside you’ll find a brown fabric lining with one internal pocket to organise smaller items. Our listing photos show the exact layout of this piece.
Q: What is Fendi’s Zucca canvas and how durable is it? A: Zucca fabric is typically a coated canvas printed with the FF motif. It’s lightweight and hard‑wearing for daily use and offers some resistance to light moisture, though it isn’t fully waterproof. Avoid prolonged rain and heavy abrasion to keep the print and finish looking their best.
Q: How should I care for the Zucca canvas and brown leather trim? A: Wipe canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp, lint‑free cloth; avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol and abrasives. For leather trim, use a soft dry cloth and, if needed, a high‑quality neutral conditioner very sparingly after testing on a discreet area. Let any damp areas air‑dry away from heat. Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid hanging it by the strap for long periods. Be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim onto lighter leather.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes typically found on Fendi bags? A: Authentic Fendi bags usually have an interior leather heat‑stamp (e.g., “FENDI ROMA Made in Italy”) and a unique serial/production identifier. Many mid‑2000s pieces include a hologram sticker (roughly 2004–2010), while later pieces often have a fabric RFID tag with numbers sewn in; older vintage may have a serial on or behind an interior leather tab or within a pocket. Placement and format vary by era and model—contact us if you’d like close‑up photos for this bag.
Q: Is this bag unisex? A: Absolutely. The understated messenger silhouette and classic brown Zucca canvas make it a versatile, unisex piece suitable for work or weekend wear.
Q: What accessories are included with this listing? A: This item is listed with no accessories. If an accessory (e.g., dust bag) isn’t mentioned under “Accessories,” it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm anything specific.
Q: How is authenticity guaranteed? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, reviewing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, serial/hologram or RFID tags (as appropriate to the era) and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
