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 are the measurements of the Christian Dior Oblique Vertical Saddle Pouch? A: The pouch measures approximately 18 × 9.5 × 3.5 cm, with an approx. 57 cm chain drop. This compact, vertical format is designed for streamlined carry; please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact figures.
Q: What typically fits inside? A: A large smartphone (including most Pro/Max sizes), a slim cardholder or a few cards, keys and a lipstick will fit comfortably. A standard passport can also fit vertically. Bulky wallets or sunglasses cases are unlikely to fit due to the slim profile—packing flat items works best.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody and is the chain adjustable or detachable? A: Yes, the approx. 57 cm drop allows shoulder or crossbody wear on most builds. Some Vertical Saddle Pouch runs have a detachable chain; for this specific piece, please check the photos and product information or contact us if detachability is essential.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: It has an asymmetric magnetic flap with the signature ‘D’ stirrup charm. The magnet keeps contents secure during day-to-day use; as with any small pouch, avoid overfilling to maintain proper closure and shape.
Q: How does this differ from the Small/Medium Saddle Pouch with Chain? A: The Vertical Saddle Pouch is taller and slimmer, optimised as a phone-and-essentials pouch. The Small/Medium Saddle Pouches are wider and often include extra internal organisation (e.g., multiple card slots and a removable zipped insert), making them better mini-bag alternatives if you need more compartments.
Q: What materials is it made from? A: Blue Dior Oblique jacquard canvas with blue leather trim, aged gold-tone hardware and beige fabric lining—crafted in Italy. The jacquard is durable for daily use while remaining lightweight and refined.
Q: How should I care for Dior Oblique jacquard and leather trim? A: Brush off surface dust with a soft, dry cloth, then spot-clean gently with a barely damp, lint-free cloth on the fabric areas. Avoid harsh chemicals, soaking, or vigorous rubbing. Keep away from prolonged sunlight, oils and dark denim that may transfer colour. Store lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape.
Q: Is it water-resistant? A: The jacquard canvas and leather trim are not waterproof. If exposed to light rain, blot gently and air-dry at room temperature. Avoid heat sources and do not use household cleaners.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is always listed under product information. For this piece, it is listed with no additional items beyond the pouch itself.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous multi-point checks by our in‑house experts, including materials, stitching, stamps/date codes and hardware details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share further details on request.
