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 is the Christian Dior Libertine Hobo, and when was it from? A: The Libertine is a ruched-leather shoulder hobo from the John Galliano era, introduced around 2010. Hallmarks include pleated leather, a single padded strap with gold-tone links, and a magnetic snap closure. It is a discontinued style now sought after on the vintage market.
Q: What typically fits inside, and will it hold a 13-inch laptop? A: With approximate dimensions of 35 × 30 × 13 cm, it comfortably carries a long wallet, phone, keys, a cosmetic pouch, sunglasses, and a small water bottle. A 13-inch laptop or tablet in a slim sleeve can fit horizontally; thicker cases or most 14-inch laptops are not recommended due to the hobo’s soft structure. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Is the shoulder strap adjustable or removable? A: No. This model has a fixed single shoulder strap designed for under-arm wear, with an approximate drop of 23 cm. It is not intended for crossbody use.
Q: How secure is the closure in daily use? A: The magnetic snap closure offers quick access and reliable everyday hold. As with most magnetic clasps, it is not as sealed as a full zip, so we recommend placing small valuables inside the internal pocket.
Q: What does the interior look like on this specific piece? A: This example has a black leather lining with one internal pocket, as listed under Features. Internal layouts can vary slightly by production run.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This bag is sold without accessories. Everything included is always listed under Accessories; if a dust bag or authenticity card is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How can I authenticate a vintage Dior Libertine Hobo? A: Dior bags from this era typically feature a leather tag with a heat‑stamped logo and a date code on the reverse or inside a pocket. The alphanumeric code indicates factory and date, and countries such as Italy and Spain are legitimate origins. Inspect materials, stitching, edge paint, and hardware engravings; when in doubt, obtain a professional third‑party authentication.
Q: What leather is used and how should I care for it? A: The Libertine is crafted in soft, ruched leather. Avoid overfilling to prevent stretching of the pleats, keep it away from moisture and direct heat, and wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use. Store the bag stuffed to maintain its shape and in a breathable dust bag. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, test any product on a hidden area first or consult a leather specialist.
Q: Is this model still produced by Dior? A: No. It is a discontinued style from the Galliano period and is available today primarily on the pre‑owned market.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country‑of‑origin label for this piece is Italy.
