New to Gucci’s ever-growing bag family is the Borsetto, a softly structured carryall with a relaxed silhouette and a distinctly equestrian edge. With a name as sharp as a double-edged sword – it merges borsa (Italian for bag) and morsetto (Italian for horsebit) – it plays with language the same way it plays with form, fusing house codes into something that feels intuitive, modern and effortlessly Italian.
Designed to “feel easy, expressive, and instantly recognisable”, this bag features an elongated handle that sits neatly under the arm and a strap that you can remove and reapply as you please, so it’s easy to wear whether you’re navigating weekday meetings in the city or slipping out for dinner after dark. Available in medium and large sizes, its horsebit hardware gallops in from Gucci’s past, having first appeared in collections back in the late ’40s. In 2026, the emblem is one of the Florentine house’s most immediately recognisable signatures, and here, it hurdles toward the future, bringing a delightful vintage feel to a contemporary bag with a supple, softly draped finish.
Find it in dark brown suede, soft black leather or sand and dark brown GG Monogram canvas. Whichever tickles your fancy, the Borsetto delivers that balance Gucci does so well – heritage you can trace back decades, wrapped up in a silhouette that feels entirely of the now.
