Prada Jacquard Messenger Bag

Q: What fits inside this Prada Jacquard Messenger Bag?
A: With approximate measurements of 28 x 24 x 2 cm, this slim messenger is best for everyday essentials such as a phone, wallet, keys, passport, sunglasses and a small notebook. Its flat profile means it is not ideal for a laptop, water bottle or bulkier items.

Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody?
A: Yes. It has an adjustable flat shoulder strap with an approximate drop of 53 cm, so it can usually be worn on the shoulder or crossbody depending on your height and preferred fit.

Q: What materials and details does this bag have?
A: This vintage piece is crafted in beige jacquard canvas with brown leather trim and silver-tone hardware. Inside, it has a tonal logo jacquard lining with one internal pocket, and it closes with a top zip.

Q: How is the bag organised inside?
A: The bag has one main compartment and one internal pocket for smaller essentials. The slim silhouette works especially well for flat, easy-to-reach items rather than bulky daily carry.

Q: What condition is this bag in?
A: The overall condition is very good vintage condition. Please note there is scuffing on the leather edges, light traces of use inside, and light scratches on the shiny hardware.

Q: What product information is included with this item?
A: The included product information for this piece is a name tag. If an authenticity card, box or dust bag is not listed on the product page, it should not be assumed to be included.

Q: How should I care for vintage Prada jacquard and leather?
A: For routine care, gently wipe the bag with a soft, dry cloth and store it in a breathable dust bag away from heat, damp and direct sunlight. Avoid harsh cleaning products, and take extra care with liquids, cosmetics and pens, as jacquard fabric and linings can stain more easily than full leather bags.

Q: Does it come with a serial number or authenticity card?
A: No serial number or authenticity card is listed in the product information for this item. Vintage Prada bags can vary in which original tags or documents are still present, so missing paperwork alone does not determine authenticity. This item has been authenticated by A Retro Tale.

Q: Is Prada jacquard durable enough for everyday use?
A: Prada jacquard is generally appreciated for being lightweight and practical, especially in flatter messenger styles like this. As with any vintage fabric bag, it is best suited to careful daily use rather than heavy loads or rough conditions.

Q: Is this bag made in Italy?
A: Yes. The country of origin label for this item states Italy.
