Q: What size is this Chloé Medium Paddington Bag, and what typically fits inside? A: This medium size measures approximately 37 x 18 x 19 cm. It will typically fit daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, cosmetics pouch and a small tablet, with some extra room to spare. Please refer to the measurements on this page for the best indication of capacity.
Q: Is the Medium Paddington designed for shoulder wear or hand carry? A: This bag features dual rolled leather handles with an approximate handle drop of 19 cm. It is best suited to hand carry or carrying in the crook of the arm, though some customers may also find it sits on the shoulder depending on frame and styling preference. This item does not include a shoulder strap.
Q: Is the Paddington known to be heavy? A: Yes. The Paddington is well known for its substantial feel, largely due to its thick leather and signature oversized hardware. Many collectors love this because it gives the bag its iconic, luxurious presence, but if you prefer especially lightweight bags, it is worth keeping in mind.
Q: Is the padlock functional or mainly decorative? A: The oversized padlock is one of the Paddington’s signature design elements and an important part of its recognisable look. On vintage Paddington bags, it is both a decorative feature and part of the closure styling, but most buyers value it primarily for the iconic aesthetic it gives the bag.
