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 Zucca Chef Leopard Tote? A: With approximate measurements of 35 × 27 × 12 cm, it comfortably carries daily essentials: large smartphone, continental wallet, keys, slim sunglasses in a soft case, a small cosmetics pouch and a 500 ml water bottle. An iPad/11-inch tablet generally fits; if you use a bulky case, it may be snug. Share your items’ dimensions and we’ll provide a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit A4 documents or a 13-inch laptop? A: A4 papers can fit when placed horizontally; rigid folders may be snug due to the zip opening and softly structured silhouette. A 13-inch laptop may fit without a thick sleeve but is not the most protective carry, as there’s no padded compartment. We’re happy to test a specific device on request.
Q: Are the straps adjustable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: This style has dual flat shoulder straps designed for shoulder carry. They are not adjustable and the bag is not intended for crossbody wear. The drop is approximately 24 cm; if you’d like exact on‑body measurements (with or without a coat), just ask and we’ll advise.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: It features a top zip closure for everyday security. Inside, there’s a brown fabric lining with one internal pocket for smaller valuables. Our listing photos show the exact configuration of this piece.
Q: What are the materials and hardware on this bag? A: This piece combines Fendi’s Zucca and leopard‑print canvas with black leather trim and gold‑tone hardware. The canvas offers durable, lightweight wear, while the leather trim adds structure and polish.
Q: How should I care for the canvas, leather and hardware? A: Keep the bag dry and away from prolonged rain; if it gets lightly wet, blot (don’t rub) and allow to air‑dry away from heat. Avoid colour transfer from dark denim or richly dyed fabrics. Dust the canvas with a soft brush; condition smooth leather sparingly with a neutral product after testing on a discreet area. Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, and keep hardware from rubbing against the canvas during storage.
Q: Will the Zucca/leopard print rub off or fade? A: The jacquard/printed canvas is robust for daily use, but like all textiles it can show wear at high‑friction points over time (corners, against rough fabrics). Minimising abrasion and avoiding overloading will help preserve the motifs and silhouette.
Q: Is this a current‑season style? A: This is a vintage piece from a past Fendi collection. Availability now is mostly through the pre‑loved market, so exact trims and prints like this Zucca‑and‑leopard combination are sought after and not regularly found in boutiques.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located? A: Authentic Fendi bags typically feature an interior FENDI heat‑stamp and, depending on era, a serial number on a small tag or within/along a pocket seam. Placement and format vary by year and model; we’re happy to share close‑ups and discuss dating details for this exact bag.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: This item is sold as the bag only (no accessories are included unless listed under “Accessories”). Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts—assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps/serials and overall construction—so you can buy with confidence.
Q: Can Fendi or a specialist repair this bag? A: Fendi boutiques may offer repairs subject to assessment and parts availability. Skilled independent luxury restorers can also help with cleaning, zip replacement, corner touch‑ups and general refurbishment. Contact us if you’d like recommendations or advice on typical lead times and costs.
