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 Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Cabat MM? A: With approximate measurements of 40 × 22 × 17 cm, it comfortably carries daily essentials: a large smartphone, continental wallet, keys, slim sunglasses in a soft case, a small cosmetics pouch and a 500 ml bottle. An A5 diary/notebook fits easily; A4 documents fit best when placed horizontally. Capacity varies with how you pack—share any specific item and we’ll test the fit for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a laptop or tablet? A: Most 13‑inch laptops (e.g., around 30.5 × 21.5 cm) and many slim 14‑inch models fit horizontally; thicker devices in bulky sleeves may be snug due to the 22 cm height and open‑top design. Standard tablets and e‑readers fit comfortably. For commuting, we recommend a slim sleeve and placing the device horizontally for balance and protection.
Q: Can I wear it on the shoulder? A: Yes—this Cabat MM has dual rolled top handles with an approximate 19 cm drop, allowing most wearers to carry it on the shoulder over light layers, or by hand/in the crook of the arm. Over bulky coats it may sit higher and feel snug on the shoulder.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior like? A: The Cabat is intentionally minimal: an open‑top, unlined tote with a single main compartment and a detachable zipped pouch for valuables. For travel or commuting we suggest keeping the bag upright and using the included pouch or a slim organiser to keep essentials secure and easy to find.
Q: Is the Cabat heavy? How does it carry day to day? A: Hand‑woven leather makes it sturdy yet relatively lightweight for an all‑leather tote of this size. Weight perception depends on what you carry; if you’re sensitive to weight, we’re happy to provide an exact scale weight for this specific piece on request. Distribute heavier items along the base for comfort and to maintain shape.
Q: How should I care for Bottega Veneta’s Intrecciato leather? A: Keep it away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight; if lightly wet, blot (don’t rub) and air‑dry away from heat. Avoid overloading to prevent unnecessary stretch in the weave. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; use a high‑quality neutral leather conditioner very sparingly and only after testing on a discreet area. Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag; pad the handles to minimise impressions and avoid pressure on the woven edges.
Q: Will the woven leather stretch or snag? A: The Intrecciato weave is robust when used mindfully. Repeated heavy loads can lead to gentle stretch over time; keep sharp objects inside a pouch and avoid abrasive surfaces and jewellery to reduce snagging. If a strip lifts, do not pull—consult a trusted luxury leather specialist for professional repair advice.
Q: Is the Cabat MM still produced? A: Yes—the Cabat remains part of Bottega Veneta’s current collection in various sizes, though details and dimensions can vary by season. Vintage and earlier‑era Cabat bags like this piece may feature different proportions and finishes, making the pre‑loved market the best place to find specific configurations.
Q: Where are the brand markings/codes and how do you authenticate? A: Authentic Cabat bags typically have a “BOTTEGA VENETA – MADE IN ITALY” heat‑stamp and, depending on era, a small internal tag/code or a code associated with the attached pouch. Placement and format vary by year. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts—we stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
Q: What accessories are included and what is the condition of this specific item? A: This listing includes a detachable zipped pouch. Overall condition is graded Good: there are visible signs of wear on the handles and corners, light traces of use with minor marks inside, and the pouch hardware shows deep scratches, discolouration and oxidation. Please review our photos for close‑ups or ask us for additional images or a video overview.
