This thread is for @dulparii and others interested in this bag (like me!)
The Tifosa or basketball comes in 2 sizes. As yet I've only seen the smaller IRL in black
Smaller Style 536110 0PL0T 1000 which is still a fair size H23cm x W23xm x D23cm
and
Larger Style 541843 0PL0T 1000 (as yet unmeasured)
Neither one will be comfortable for the shoulder
To my knowledge, this is a brand new bag (as we know most bags are revivals/adaptions of Gucci bags from the archives.
Specifically for our new member @dulparii: A runway bag just means it was seen on the runway. The Tifosa was starred not only on one but two seasons' runway shows AW18 and Cruise/Resort '19. If the cruise version goes into production the bag will be studded and also come in other colours. The whole sports theme was very much a part of this Winter's theme but the signs are that the bag line will carry on.
Gucci's bags only become 'classics' as opposed to seasonal (one or two seasons only) if a) enough people buy them and b) the mark-up is high enough. If a bag doesn't sell or it's not cost-effective to produce, they either go straight to Gucci's outlets or if costly to make but good for their rep or publicity they're made in small numbers and when they're gone they're gone.
Cruise'19 smaller in red (could be even smaller(?))
AW18 larger in black
Cruise'19 smaller studded in black
