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 Fendi Baguette Backpack? A: With approximate measurements of 22 × 22 × 9 cm, it comfortably carries everyday essentials such as a large smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve, earphones, a small cosmetics pouch and an A5 diary/notebook. A compact tablet (similar to an iPad mini) generally fits; A4 papers and laptops do not. If you’d like a tailored fit check for a specific item, just ask and we’ll test this exact piece for you.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or water bottle? A: A compact tablet (around 8 inches) typically fits inside the main compartment. Standard 10–11-inch tablets and 13-inch laptops are usually too large for the 22 cm height/width. A slim 500 ml bottle may fit upright depending on the cap height; we recommend a low‑profile bottle to maintain the silhouette.
Q: Are the shoulder straps adjustable and how can it be worn? A: Yes—this backpack has adjustable shoulder straps and a top handle. The strap drop is approximately 50 cm at its longest setting, allowing a close, comfortable carry on the back. The top handle gives you a quick grab‑and‑go option when commuting.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: The main compartment closes with a zip for everyday security. There are two external pockets for quick‑access items, and the design features a magnetic flap element in the Baguette style. Our listing photos show the exact layout of this piece.
Q: Is the nylon water‑resistant? Can I use it in the rain? A: Nylon offers light, day‑to‑day water resistance and is great for shrugging off minor splashes and light showers. It isn’t fully waterproof—particularly at seams and zips—so we recommend avoiding heavy rain and blotting any moisture promptly with a soft cloth.
Q: How should I care for the nylon and gold‑tone hardware? A: Wipe nylon gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth using mild soap if needed, then air‑dry away from heat and direct sunlight. Avoid harsh cleaners or soaking. For hardware, buff lightly with a clean, dry cloth—avoid abrasive polishes that can wear the finish. Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, inside a breathable dust bag, with straps tucked to prevent imprints.
Q: Where are the Fendi markings/codes and how is dating handled? A: Authentic Fendi bags typically include an interior “FENDI Made in Italy” stamp and may have a serial or production code; placement and format vary by era. Some later‑era pieces use newer identification technology. We’re happy to share close‑ups and help interpret the markings on this exact bag.
Q: What accessories are included with this listing? A: For this specific piece we include the dust bag and the original receipt, as shown under “Accessories.” If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm.
Q: Is this Baguette Backpack still produced? A: This specific nylon Baguette backpack configuration is most commonly found on the pre‑loved market today. Availability can vary by season and region; our listing shows the exact vintage configuration you’ll receive.
Q: What is the condition and where is it made? A: Overall Preloved Condition: Very Good. Exterior—Very Good with light traces of use; Interior—Very Good with light traces of use; Hardware—shiny with light scratches. This piece is made in Italy. Please review our photos for close‑ups, and contact us if you’d like additional images or advice on care and professional cleaning.
