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 fits inside the Fendi Tweed Mamma Bag? A: Typically, it holds everyday essentials such as a smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, and a slim sunglasses case. Some versions also accommodate a small notebook. Continental (long) wallets can be a snug fit and full‑size tablets generally do not fit. Please refer to the Measurements on this page or contact us for tailored fit advice for this exact piece.
Q: Is the strap adjustable and suitable for crossbody wear? A: Many Mamma bags feature a short leather shoulder strap with a few adjustment holes, offering minor length tweaks. It’s designed primarily for shoulder or hand carry rather than crossbody wear. We’ll list the strap drop in the Measurements—if it’s missing, just ask and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: How does the closure work and is it secure? A: Most Mamma bags have a front flap with FF logo hardware and a concealed magnetic snap. It provides convenient, everyday security; for added peace of mind, keep valuables in any interior zip pocket (if present) and carry the bag upright when commuting.
Q: What materials is this Tweed Mamma Bag typically made from? A: Tweed versions commonly feature a wool‑blend tweed exterior with leather trim, textile or suede lining, and gold‑tone or palladium‑tone hardware. Exact materials and finishes for this specific piece will be indicated in the listing photos and details.
Q: How should I care for tweed fabric and the leather trim? A: Keep the bag away from moisture and oils, and avoid colour transfer from dark denim. Prevent snags by steering clear of rough surfaces. Use a lint roller or a gentle fabric/sweater comb for de‑pilling, and wipe leather trim with a soft, dry cloth; condition smooth leather sparingly with a suitable neutral product (test first on an inconspicuous area). Store lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and heat.
Q: Is the tweed fabric water‑resistant? A: Tweed and leather are not waterproof. If caught in light rain, blot gently (do not rub) with a soft cloth and allow to air‑dry naturally away from heat sources. If you prefer extra protection, consider a suitable fabric protector—always test first on a discreet area and follow the product’s guidance.
Q: Is the Mamma Bag still produced, or is it a vintage/past‑season style? A: The Mamma silhouette is most associated with late 1990s–2000s collections. While Fendi often revisits the Baguette family, specific Mamma configurations (including tweed editions) are past‑season and availability varies over time. The pre‑loved market is the best way to find particular versions.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located on Fendi bags? A: Authentic Fendi bags typically feature an interior leather tab heat‑stamped 'FENDI' and 'Made in Italy'. Many pieces have a serial code printed or stamped on/behind the tab, or a fabric label with a hologram on some early‑2000s models. Newer releases may include an embedded microchip instead of (or in addition to) a visible code. Placement and format vary by era—feel free to ask us for close‑up photos for this exact bag.
Q: Will it fit a long/continental wallet or a small tablet? A: Compact wallets and cardholders fit best. Long continental wallets are often a tight squeeze. Small tablets (e.g., an iPad mini) may fit only in larger Mamma editions and without bulky cases. Please compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements shown or contact us to check fit before purchase.
Q: What accessories are included, and how do you authenticate this bag? A: Any included items (e.g., dust bag, box, paperwork) are listed under 'Accessories'. If an accessory isn’t mentioned, it isn’t included—just ask and we’ll confirm. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated through multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stitching, stamps, hardware and codes/microchips, and we stand behind the authenticity of all pieces we sell.
