Perfect for evenings out, festivals or weekend city breaks, the Balenciaga Le Cagole coin purse keeps your small essentials neatly organised and slips effortlessly into a mini bag or pocket—an elegant choice whenever you want to travel light.
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 can this coin purse hold day to day? A: It comfortably carries coins, folded notes and a few cards (around 3–5, depending on thickness). A house key or slim lip balm can also fit. It is not designed for smartphones or bulkier items; please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Does it have card slots, and will standard bank cards fit? A: This Le Cagole piece is a zip coin purse without dedicated card slots, but standard credit and ID cards fit inside the main compartment. If you prefer integrated slots, Balenciaga offers separate Le Cagole coin‑and‑card holder variants.
Q: Will an AirPods charging case fit inside? A: Not comfortably. Most charging cases are thicker than the purse’s slim profile, so they tend to bulge and can stress the leather. We recommend using it for coins, folded notes and cards instead.
Q: Is the wrist strap removable and can I use it as a bag charm? A: This design features a knotted leather wristlet attached to the zip pull for hands‑free carry. It can be looped through a bag handle for charm‑style use. On many editions it is not intended to be fully detachable; please check our photos for the exact attachment on this piece.
Q: What materials and hardware are used on Le Cagole coin purses? A: Le Cagole coin purses are typically crafted from Balenciaga’s textured leathers with the line’s signature studs and aged‑metal hardware. Materials and finishes vary by edition; please refer to the Product colour and product information on this page for the specifics of this item.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: Keep the purse away from prolonged sunlight and heat, and avoid contact with liquids, oils and cosmetics. Limit friction with contrasting colours to reduce colour transfer. Wipe gently with a soft, dry, light‑coloured cloth and store it in its dust bag and box when not in use. Avoid overfilling, and protect the metal components from moisture and hard impacts.
Q: Where is it made? A: Le Cagole coin purses are made in Italy. This piece carries an Italy origin label.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item comes with a box and dustbag. Everything included is listed under the product information section; if it is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly checked by our specialists via multi‑point inspection of leather and materials, stitching and construction, hardware and stud details, logo stamps and fonts, and origin labels. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional images or details on request.
Q: What does the condition grade mean for this piece? A: Very Good indicates light signs of previous use with no major flaws. For this purse, expect minor wear consistent with the description, including shiny hardware with light scratches. Please review the photos for an accurate view of condition.
