Collection: Balenciaga Bags

Balenciaga handbags represent the cutting edge of contemporary luxury fashion. Founded in 1919 by Cristóbal Balenciaga—the couturier Coco Chanel called "the master of us all"—the house has been reimagined for the modern era as a trendsetting force in fashion. Under creative directors like Nicolas Ghesquière and Demna, Balenciaga bags have become must-have accessories that define each fashion season.

The Balenciaga City bag, introduced in 2001, became one of the most influential handbag designs of the 21st century. With its distinctive motorcycle-inspired hardware, tasseled zippers, and perfectly distressed leather, the City bag was spotted on every celebrity and model of the era. The Motorcycle bag family expanded to include the First, Part Time, Work, and Weekender—each becoming collector's items in their own right.

Under Demna's creative direction, Balenciaga has introduced new icons including the Hourglass bag with its sculptural curved silhouette, the Neo Classic with its updated take on the motorcycle aesthetic, and the Le Cagole featuring bold studs and logo hardware. The brand's playful approach has also produced viral moments like the IKEA-inspired Carry Shopper and the Trash Pouch, cementing Balenciaga's reputation for fashion that challenges conventions.

Pre-owned Balenciaga bags offer collectors access to both current designs and coveted archive pieces. Early City bags in rare colors and limited editions command premium prices, while discontinued styles like the Giant hardware collections have become highly sought after. The brand's quality construction—featuring butter-soft lambskin and distinctive aged brass hardware—ensures these bags age beautifully.

From classic City bags to the latest Hourglass designs, our collection offers cutting-edge luxury for every style.
