Condition

This Balenciaga City bag, crafted from distressed leather, is in good pre-owned condition. The exterior leather maintains its signature crinkled texture with visible softening and some signs of wear consistent with regular use. The overall structure is well-preserved. The antique brass hardware shows typical oxidation and minor surface wear, which is characteristic of the style. The interior lining is generally clean with some minor signs of use. The top handles show light darkening and softening from handling. The shoulder strap is present and functional.

Exterior

Crafted from soft, distressed chevre or agneau leather in a deep grey hue, characteristic of Balenciaga's iconic Motorcycle bags. The bag features prominent antique brass-tone hardware, including studs, buckles, and zippers, defining its edgy aesthetic. The front panel includes a zip pocket with a long leather pull. Distinctive whip-stitched top handles are attached via sturdy hardware rings. Side gussets include zipped pockets with long leather pulls, enhancing the 'motorcycle' appeal.

Hardware

The hardware is finished in an antique brass-tone, showing a natural patina and some areas of gentle wear, which complements the distressed nature of the leather. All zippers, including the main top closure and exterior pockets, operate smoothly. The iconic stud and buckle details are present and intact.

Interior

The main compartment is lined with a dark textile fabric, appearing clean with minor signs of prior use. It offers ample space for daily essentials and includes an internal zip pocket for securing smaller items. The 'BALENCIAGA. PARIS' leather tag with the serial number and 'MADE IN ITALY' stamping is stitched inside.

Notable Features
