Gucci is already pushing for warmer weather with its ultra-luxe basketball shorts and Yankees-emblazoned Rhyton sneakers — what says springtime style better than a lightweight carryall? As such, the famed Italian luxury house has set its sights upon the travel-friendly messenger bag, coating the youthful classic with its signature GG Supreme pattern.

The Italian-made bag features dual compartments, an adjustable web strap emblazoned in Gucci’s signature green and red and a brazen logo realized in gold-toned metal on the front leather patch, complemented by a small tiger head. The body of the bag is crafted from monogrammed canvas — not only is it an unmistakable symbol of current-day Gucci, but the textile is environmentally-friendly. Grain leather trim matches the flap patch and strap, giving the small bag an opulent touch.

MATCHESFASHION.COM currently offers the GG Supreme messenger bag for $1,167 USD.

Most recently, we took a look at Gucci’s recent Fall/Winter 2019 presentation.
