Balenciaga First Bag

Very Good Condition

This vintage Balenciaga First Bag in pink leather with antique brass hardware offers an iconic, relaxed silhouette. In very good condition, it features dual braided handles, a zip closure and black fabric lining with one internal pocket. Perfect for lunches, shopping days or adding a soft pastel accent to day-to-evening looks.

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 fits inside the Balenciaga First Bag?
A: With approximate dimensions of 32 × 18 × 6 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet or card holder, keys, sunglasses, lipstick and a few small personal items. It has a slim profile, so it is not designed for bulkier items such as a tablet, notebook or water bottle.

Q: Can this bag be carried by hand and on the shoulder?
A: Yes. This piece has dual braided handles and a detachable shoulder strap. The handle drop is approximately 11 cm and the strap drop is approximately 21 cm, so it works well in the hand or as a short shoulder bag. It is not likely to sit as a true crossbody style.

Q: What is the difference between the Balenciaga First and the City?
A: The First is the more compact style in Balenciaga’s Motorcycle line. It is generally preferred by those who want the signature look in a lighter, smaller day-to-evening format, while the City offers more capacity for fuller everyday use.

Q: Does this item come with the original mirror and strap?
A: Yes. This bag includes a detachable shoulder strap and mirror. Everything included with the item is listed in the product information on this page.

Q: How is the bag organised inside?
A: It features a zip closure, black fabric lining and one internal pocket. The layout is simple and practical, making it easy to keep everyday essentials neatly organised.

Q: What condition is this vintage bag in?
A: It is in very good vintage condition. There is visible wear on the handles, scuffing on the corners, light traces of use inside and light scratches to the shiny hardware. Please review the product images as well for the clearest impression of its current condition.

Q: Is the Balenciaga First a good everyday size?
A: It can be, especially if you prefer to travel light. Many Balenciaga owners find the First roomy enough for essentials and appreciate that it feels lighter and more compact than larger Motorcycle styles. If you usually carry larger extras, a bigger model may suit you better.

Q: How should I care for vintage Balenciaga leather?
A: Store it lightly stuffed in a dust bag or other breathable storage, keep it away from prolonged sunlight, moisture and dark fabrics that may transfer colour, and wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after use. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, it is best to use a trusted leather specialist.

Q: How do you authenticate a pre-owned Balenciaga bag?
A: At A Retro Tale, each item is inspected for authenticity by experts. For Balenciaga, details such as the leather quality, construction, hardware, braided handles, mirror, lining and interior markings are all important parts of the authentication process.
