Q: What typically fits inside the Medium Paddington? A: With its slouchy shape and approximate measurements of 36 × 14 × 20 cm, it comfortably carries daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch, a compact umbrella or 500 ml bottle, and a small tablet. Capacity varies with how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Will it fit A4 documents or a laptop? A: Due to the bag’s height and the zip opening, it is not ideal for A4 folders or most 13-inch laptops. Slim papers may fit when folded; a small tablet or e-reader is a better everyday fit.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: The classic Medium Paddington is designed for hand or crook‑of‑arm carry with dual rolled handles and typically does not include a long shoulder strap. The handle drop on this piece is approximately 18 cm.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.

Q: Is the Paddington considered heavy? A: Yes. Original mid‑2000s Paddingtons are known for their substantial feel because of the weighty padlock and robust hardware. If you prefer a lighter carry, many owners remove the padlock and store it in the dust bag when not needed.
Q: Does the padlock actually work, and how do I use it? A: The padlock is both decorative and functional. To secure the bag, align the two zip pulls at the centre and pass the padlock shackle through their eyelets; use the key to lock or unlock as needed. For convenience, many users keep it unlocked during daily use.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: The classic Medium Paddington is designed for hand or crook‑of‑arm carry with dual rolled handles and typically does not include a long shoulder strap. The handle drop on this piece is approximately 18 cm.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: As listed under Accessories, this piece comes with a dust bag and the original lock and key. If an accessory isn’t listed there, it isn’t included—feel free to contact us for confirmation.
Q: How can I tell an authentic Paddington? A: Key signs include supple, non‑uniform grained leather; a weighty, matte‑finish padlock with crisp Chloé engraving and correctly oriented keyhole; neat, even stitching; and interior markings such as a date code and made‑in stamp. Zipper markings and lining details can vary by year. Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our experts before listing.
Q: How should I care for the grained leather and hardware? A: Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow to dry naturally; condition sparingly with a neutral leather cream a few times per year; avoid saturation, oils and prolonged sunlight; store the bag loosely stuffed in its dust bag to maintain shape; and keep the padlock wrapped or removed to minimise scratches on the leather.
Q: When was the Paddington introduced, and is this bag considered vintage? A: The Paddington debuted for the Spring/Summer 2005 collection and became an early‑2000s icon. This piece is a vintage, pre‑owned example of that classic design.
Q: What if I lose the key or need to replace the padlock? A: Replacement keys and locks may be obtainable via Chloé after‑sales or reputable resellers; note that keys are matched to specific locks, so sets typically need to be replaced together. We recommend professional assistance to ensure compatibility and preserve the bag’s value.
