Q: What typically fits inside the Gucci Medium Bamboo Shopper? A: As a medium tote with three compartments, it comfortably carries a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), a continental wallet, keys, a small cosmetics pouch, slim sunglasses in a soft case, and an A5 diary. A4 paper and 13-inch laptops generally do not fit flat due to the 19 cm height. Please refer to the Measurements on this page (approximately 19 × 35 × 10 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, iPad Air/11-inch iPad Pro) usually fit well in one of the open sections or the central compartment. Most 13-inch laptops will be too tall for the 19 cm height and curved top opening. Compare your device’s dimensions with our Measurements or ask us to test the fit against this specific bag.
Q: Is the shoulder strap adjustable or removable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: The Bamboo Shopper’s shoulder strap is detachable; adjustability can vary by season. This piece shows an approximate 40 cm strap drop and 14 cm handle drop, making it ideal for shoulder carry or high crossbody on some wearers. If you’d like us to confirm adjustability and how it sits on you, just ask and we’ll advise.
Q: Is the Bamboo Shopper still produced? A: The Bamboo Shopper line as shown here is generally discontinued, with bamboo elements appearing in other current Gucci styles. The pre-loved market is the best way to find specific sizes and configurations like this Medium.
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.

If you’d like us to confirm adjustability and how it sits on you, just ask and we’ll advise.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: Bamboo Shopper totes typically feature three sections: a central zipped compartment flanked by two open sections (often with magnetic snaps). Day-to-day security is good—use the zipped middle compartment for valuables and keep the bag upright while commuting. Our listing photos show the exact configuration of this piece.
Q: What materials and hardware does this piece have, and where is it made? A: This listing specifies black grained leather with gold-tone hardware, dual bamboo handles, and a black fabric lining with three compartments. It is stamped Made in Italy. Our photos and description show the precise finish and details of this item.
Q: Are the bamboo handles durable, and how should I care for them? A: Gucci’s bamboo handles are heat-treated and lacquered for strength and a signature sheen. Avoid prolonged moisture, high heat and direct sunlight, which can stress the cane or finish. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth, avoid heavy impacts, and store the bag stuffed and upright so the handles aren’t compressed against the leather.
Q: How should I care for the grained leather and hardware? A: Keep leather away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim—especially on lighter leathers (this piece is black, but care still applies). Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; if conditioning is desired, use a high-quality neutral product very sparingly and test on a discreet area first. Store lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and protect hardware from rubbing to minimise hairline scratches.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and how is dating handled? A: Authentic Gucci bags feature a “GUCCI” heat-stamp and “Made in Italy” inside. A serial number is typically found on the reverse of the interior leather tag (often a two-row numeric code). Placement and format vary by era; we’re happy to share close-up photos and help interpret the code for this exact piece.
Q: Is the Bamboo Shopper still produced? A: The Bamboo Shopper line as shown here is generally discontinued, with bamboo elements appearing in other current Gucci styles. The pre-loved market is the best way to find specific sizes and configurations like this Medium.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: Included items are listed under “Accessories.” For this piece, we note a detachable shoulder strap. If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to contact us to confirm. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi-point authentication by our in-house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, serial code and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
