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 Christian Dior Street Chic Hobo? A: With its slim east–west crescent silhouette (approx. 43 × 22 × 5 cm for this piece), it comfortably holds a large smartphone, long wallet, keys, sunglasses case, a small cosmetics pouch, and a slim tablet up to about 11 inches. Capacity varies by how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Does it fit A4 documents or a 13-inch laptop? A: Due to the curved top and slim depth, A4 papers may fit only when placed horizontally and can catch at the corners; a 13-inch laptop is generally too tall. A slim 11-inch tablet is a safer fit.
Q: Is the strap adjustable and can it be worn crossbody? A: The bag features a single adjustable shoulder strap intended for on-shoulder wear. Most Street Chic hobos do not have the drop length needed for comfortable crossbody use on most body types.
Q: What is the Street Chic line and when was it produced? A: Street Chic is an early‑2000s Christian Dior line from the John Galliano era, often crafted in Diorissimo/Oblique canvas with leather trim and silver- or gold‑tone hardware. Many examples date from around 2002–2006.
Q: Where is the date code and what format should I expect? A: For this era, Dior date codes are typically on the reverse of a small leather tab inside the bag (often near or inside the pocket). Codes usually combine numbers and letters, for example 09‑BO‑XXXX. Placement and letter combinations vary by factory and year.
Q: How should I care for Diorissimo/Oblique canvas with leather trim? A: Wipe the canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth; if needed, use a drop of mild soap and wipe clean with plain water. Avoid soaking, harsh chemicals, or vigorous scrubbing. Treat the leather trim sparingly with a suitable leather cleaner/conditioner and allow the bag to air‑dry away from heat and direct sunlight to preserve the colour.
Q: Is the canvas water resistant? A: Dior’s jacquard/Oblique canvases are tightly woven and some are lightly coated, offering minor water resistance, but they are not waterproof. Blot moisture promptly and avoid heavy rain where possible.
Q: What does this listing include? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section. For this piece, no additional items are listed, so the bag is supplied on its own.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can provide additional photos or details on request.
Q: How should I store it between uses? A: Store it loosely stuffed to support the crescent shape, in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Do not hang it for long periods, as this can distort the strap and opening.
