Ideal for a refined weekend away or a swift overnight business trip, the Christian Dior Homme Lingot 50 weekend bag brings understated luxury to your travels. In black Diamond canvas with leather trim, it moves effortlessly from city hotel lobbies to countryside retreats, complementing sharp tailoring as well as relaxed off-duty looks.
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 Dior Lingot 50? A: With approximate measurements of 50 × 25 × 21 cm, it comfortably holds a long weekend’s wardrobe: 2–4 outfits, a pair of shoes, toiletry bag, chargers, and a 15-inch (and most 16-inch) laptop in a protective sleeve. Capacity depends on how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Is the Lingot 50 generally carry-on compliant? A: At around 50 cm in length, it falls within the cabin-bag length used by many airlines (often about 55–56 cm). Policies vary by carrier and route, so please check your specific airline before travelling, and remember allowances include handles and any bulging when fully packed.
Q: Does this item come with a shoulder strap? A: This specific piece is configured for handheld carry via dual top handles; no shoulder strap is included unless stated in the product information. The handle drop is approximately 13 cm for comfortable hand carry.
Q: What is the CD Diamond canvas? A: CD Diamond is a Dior Men motif revived for the Summer 2022 collections by Kim Jones, based on a 1974 Marc Bohan design. It appears in core colours such as Dior Grey, black and coffee, and is used across men’s leather goods for a graphic, durable finish.
Q: What does this item include? A: As listed in the product information, this item includes a padlock. If an item (for example, a strap or dust bag) is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: It features a black fabric lining with one internal pocket and a two-way zip closure for easy access and secure packing.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: Yes. It fits a 15-inch laptop easily and most 16-inch models as well. We recommend using a padded sleeve and placing the computer flat against a side panel when packing.
Q: Is the canvas water-resistant and how should I care for it? A: The coated canvas is hard-wearing and more water-resistant than many untreated leathers, but it is not fully waterproof. Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth; avoid soaps, alcohol, or harsh cleaners. Keep leather trims away from prolonged moisture and heat, and store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help retain its shape.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label indicates Italy.
Q: What is the condition of this pre-owned piece? A: Very Good overall, with light traces of use. The hardware is shiny with light scratches. Please review all photos for a close-up view of wear before purchasing.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every item is rigorously vetted by our in‑house specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, hardware and construction, supported by industry tools when appropriate. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell and can share further details on request.
