This family is no longer part of our current selection: no example is available to buy at the moment. We keep the history of our authentications here, along with price benchmarks and the option to have your own piece valued.
Monogram has authenticated and sold 116 pieces listed as balenciaga archives since the house opened. This page gathers what those pieces taught us: recurring materials, the sizes most in demand, the colours that resell best and the authentication checkpoints that matter.
We no longer carry this family continuously. Today, our Balenciaga selection focuses on bags and small leather goods.
These markers come only from the balenciaga archives listings that genuinely passed through Monogram: we list neither theoretical references nor pieces we have not handled ourselves.
The value of a Balenciaga piece in this category depends first on condition (sole, leather, lining, patina), then on size — central sizes resell faster — and finally on the presence of the original box and accessories. A piece worn a few times and properly cared for retains a far higher share of its boutique price than a marked one.
Our team values your piece free of charge from photographs, with no obligation, and gives you the range actually observed across our own sales rather than a theoretical price.
Two routes: an outright buyback, paid once the piece has been received and authenticated, or consignment, which aims for the top of the range with a commission that decreases with your membership card. In both cases authentication is carried out in-house and shipping is covered.
The checkpoints that matter on these pieces Balenciaga: evenness of the stitching, engraving and wear of the hardware, alignment of the logos, quality of the lining and consistency of the size and manufacturing stamps. A single anomaly does not condemn a piece, but a cluster of anomalies is enough to set one aside.
