A contemporary reimagining of the house’s most legendary silhouette, this Saddle Messenger Pouch bridges the gap between heritage couture and modern utilitarianism. Originally conceived by John Galliano in 1999, the "Saddle" was revived and redefined for the men’s universe by Kim Jones, transforming a high-fashion icon into a versatile, street-ready essential that resonates with today’s archival aesthetic.
The pouch is meticulously crafted from beige and black Dior Oblique jacquard, a motif that has remained a symbol of the maison's identity since its introduction in 1967. This graphic canvas is expertly contrasted with black grained calfskin accents, specifically on the signature asymmetrical flap that mirrors the equestrian roots of the original design.
Designed for the modern "flâneur," the piece features a technical industrial-inspired shoulder strap in nylon jacquard, finished with a rugged Christian Dior signature. Its compact yet structured interior makes it a perfect "museum-grade" daily companion, offering a sophisticated way to carry essentials while paying homage to the transformative eras of Dior. A trophy for any collector, it represents the definitive shift of the Saddle into a gender-fluid, timeless archive staple.
Perfect conditions.
