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 Gucci Medium Dionysus Hobo? A: As a medium hobo, it comfortably carries daily essentials: smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), a continental wallet, keys, slim sunglasses in a soft case, a small cosmetics pouch, A5 diary/notebook and a standard tablet. Capacity is influenced by the curved hobo silhouette—please refer to the Measurements on this page (approx. 28 × 36 × 6 cm) or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or laptop? A: Standard tablets (e.g., iPad/11-inch iPad Pro) typically fit. A 13-inch laptop is usually a squeeze due to the magnetic flap and shallow depth; very slim devices may fit without a bulky sleeve. Compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements shown or ask us to perform a quick fit check for this item.
Q: Are the straps adjustable or removable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: This model features a fixed leather shoulder strap and a detachable Web shoulder strap. The strap drop listed for this piece is approx. 46 cm, and the handle drop is approx. 17 cm. It can be worn on the shoulder and as a high crossbody on many wearers. If you’d like us to confirm how it sits on you, just ask and we’ll advise.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: The bag has a magnetic flap closure with the signature Dionysus tiger head detail, providing good day-to-day security. Inside, you’ll find a tan microfiber lining with one internal pocket. Our listing photos show the exact layout and closure of this piece.
Q: What materials and hardware does this piece have, and where is it made? A: This listing specifies black and cream leather with silver-tone hardware, plus the iconic detachable Web shoulder strap. The bag is stamped Made in Italy. Our photos and description show the precise finish and details of this item.
Q: How should I care for the leather and microfiber lining? A: Keep leather away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim—especially on the cream panels. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; if needed, use a high-quality neutral leather conditioner very sparingly and test first on a discreet area. For microfiber, use a clean, dry lint-free cloth or a soft brush to lift dust; avoid liquids. Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid overfilling to preserve the flap and shape.
Q: Will the Dionysus tiger head hardware scratch or tarnish? A: Silver-tone hardware can develop light hairline scratches with normal use. Avoid abrasive surfaces and prolonged friction. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; we don’t recommend metal polishes that could affect the finish. During storage, keep hardware from rubbing against the leather to minimise imprints and micro-scratches.
Q: Where are Gucci brand markings and codes located, and how is dating handled? A: Authentic Gucci bags typically feature an interior heat-stamp (e.g., “GUCCI” and “Made in Italy”) and a leather tag with a style/serial number on the reverse. Placement and format vary by era. We’re happy to share close-up photos and help interpret the code or markings for this exact piece on request. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi-point authentication by our in-house experts.
Q: Can I swap the Web strap for another strap? A: The Web strap is detachable, so many owners alternate with other lightweight straps. Use compatible clips and avoid heavy aftermarket hardware that could mark the rings or stress the flap. We don’t recommend modifications that require drilling or adhesives. Ask us if you’d like guidance based on this exact bag.
Q: Is the Dionysus Hobo still produced? A: The Dionysus line is part of Gucci’s ongoing collection, though the hobo silhouette and specific strap/colour configurations vary by season. The pre-loved market is ideal for finding particular editions like this black-and-cream Web-strap Medium.
Q: What accessories are included and what is the condition? A: Included items are listed under “Accessories.” For this piece, we note a detachable shoulder strap and booklet. Condition is described as Very Good overall: light traces of use externally, lightly worn material internally, and shiny hardware with light scratches. If you need additional photos or a video condition walkthrough, just let us know.
