The Gucci Boston bag is an absolute staple when it comes to travelling in style. Having first emerged from the fashion giant in 1921, it has graced runways and wardrobes ever since. Featuring a structured shape with two handles and a detachable crossbody strap, this refined classic comes in many variations to suit any sophisticated style.
The History of the Gucci Boston
The Boston dates all the way back to the beginning of the fashion house. It was designed and produced by Guccio Gucci in the same year that the company opened its doors. The emerging designer previously worked at London’s Savoy Hotel as a bellboy. It is rumoured that he was inspired to start his empire here, by the luxurious luggage carried by the aristocrats who frequented the hotel. Gucci then further cemented the brand's association with luxury by incorporating the aristocrats' pastimes into his design – hence the birth of the iconic Horsebit element.
Since then, the brand has had an intriguing history, reaching its 100th year in 2021. Passing through take-over attempts, family feuds, and even a murder. This story inspired the ‘House of Gucci’ film starring Lady Gaga to be made.
This spacious classic exudes luxury. Being available in a variation of colours and leather options, it suits both the quiet luxury shopper as well as those who love to make a statement. Having originally been made in classic leather with the iconic green and red stripe, it has since become associated with the GG monogram when it was first introduced in the early 60’s. The expert craftsmanship combined with timeless style and functionality make the Boston an unbeatable choice to reach for whether travelling or just trying to elevate your outfit, day or night.
