Q: What are the measurements and strap drop of this Medium Boy Bag? A: The bag measures approximately 25 × 15 × 6 cm (W × H × D). The chain-and-leather strap can be worn doubled with an approximate 30 cm drop for the shoulder, or long with an approximate 52 cm drop for crossbody, as listed on this page.
Q: What typically fits inside this size? A: Everyday essentials such as a smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, and slim sunglasses in a soft case fit comfortably. A full-length continental wallet can fit but will reduce interior space due to the bag’s structured frame and 6 cm depth.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody and is the strap adjustable? A: Yes, the long strap drop allows crossbody wear for many heights. The strap is not traditionally adjustable, but you can shorten it by doubling the chain or by tucking a portion of the chain under the flap to achieve your preferred length.
Q: Is this the “old medium” or “new medium” Boy size? A: Resellers commonly refer to two medium sizes. Based on our listed measurements (approx. 25 cm width), this piece aligns more closely with what many call the “old medium”. Depths can vary slightly by season and measurement method, so please rely on the exact dimensions provided here to gauge capacity and fit.
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.

Depths can vary slightly by season and measurement method, so please rely on the exact dimensions provided here to gauge capacity and fit.
Q: What does the serial number starting with 18 indicate? A: An 18-series serial number corresponds to production around 2013–2014. Chanel introduced microchipped metal plates from 2021 onwards, so this earlier piece features a serial sticker rather than a plate.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, a serial number tag is included. Items such as an authenticity card, dust bag, or box are only included if specifically stated in product information.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every item undergoes a multi‑point inspection by our in‑house experts, covering materials, stitching, stamping, hardware, and the serial number. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
Q: How should I care for the leather and ruthenium‑plated hardware? A: Store the bag stuffed and upright in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Wipe leather gently with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh cleaners or oils. For hardware, use a clean, dry cloth only—metal polishes can damage the plating. For deep cleaning or corner reinforcement, consult a professional handbag care service.
Q: What should I expect from a “Good Condition” vintage piece? A: This pre‑loved bag shows normal wear consistent with use. For this specific piece, there are scuff marks on corners and edges, signs of wear around the front lock, some stains and light scratches inside, and scratches/dullness on the hardware. Please review the photos and condition notes for full details before purchasing.
