A legacy bag with layered past—aged, restored, and still unmistakably Balenciaga.
The City Classic by Balenciaga is one of fashion’s most enduring silhouettes—worn, weathered, and coveted since the early 2000s. This black version, code N°0012 P / 103208, features the signature mirror tag, front zip pocket, and whipstitched handles.
While the original agneau leather has been professionally repainted, the structure, charm, and intention of the City remain fully intact.
Authentic down to its Lampo zipper pulls, this pre-2011 version lacks its original shoulder strap—a note reflected in pricing. Its leather has softened and slightly reshaped through years of styling, but the attitude remains pure. Not flawless, but far from ordinary.
