Q: What typically fits inside the Balenciaga First Bag? A: The Balenciaga First is a compact shoulder bag designed for daily essentials. With approximate measurements of 32 × 18 × 6 cm, it will typically fit a phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses and a few small personal items. It is not suitable for larger items such as a laptop, tablet or A4 documents.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: This item includes a shoulder strap, but with an approximate strap drop of 20 cm it is best suited to shoulder carry rather than true crossbody wear. On most people it will sit fairly high under the arm or close to the body.
Q: Is the Balenciaga First a good everyday size? A: Yes, the First is widely loved as an everyday style for those who prefer a lighter, more compact bag. It offers enough room for essentials while keeping the signature relaxed Balenciaga Motorcycle look without the bulk of larger styles.
