Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: With approximate measurements of 20 x 17 x 8 cm, this bag is best for daily essentials such as a phone, card holder, keys, lipstick, and a few small personal items. Its tall shape is practical for light packing, but it is not intended for bulkier items or a full-size wallet.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: The adjustable chain-and-leather strap gives flexible styling options. Depending on your height and preferred fit, it may suit shoulder wear or a shorter crossbody-style look. Please use the strap measurement provided on this page as your best guide to how it will sit on you.
Q: Is the North South Boy a good everyday bag? A: Yes, if you prefer to carry just the essentials. The structured Boy design, black colourway, and compact shape make it easy to dress up or down, while the size is better suited to light daily use than to carrying larger items throughout the day.

Q: What is the Chanel North South Boy Flap Bag? A: The North South Boy is a compact, vertically shaped version of the Chanel Boy Bag. It keeps the signature structured silhouette, quilted leather, chain-and-leather strap, and Boy push-lock closure, but with a taller profile that is ideal for carrying essentials in a neat, streamlined shape.

Q: What are the main features of this specific bag? A: This piece is crafted in black quilted leather with gold-tone hardware. It features a chain-link and leather shoulder strap, black fabric lining, one internal pocket, and a Boy push-lock closure. It is also marked as a vintage piece and made in Italy.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This bag is listed in very good condition overall. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with all vintage pieces, small signs of age and wear are normal and form part of the bag’s character.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: This listing is noted as having no included items in the product information. If you would like confirmation before purchase, feel free to contact us.
Q: Does the Chanel Boy chain ever catch hair? A: Some Boy Bag owners mention that the chain can occasionally catch long or fine hair, while others never experience this at all. If this is a concern for you, wearing the bag over a collar or keeping hair clear of the chain can help reduce friction.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Chanel Boy Bag? A: To keep it looking its best, avoid overfilling the bag, keep it away from prolonged heat and moisture, and wipe the leather gently with a soft dry cloth after use. Store it upright, lightly stuffed, and in a breathable fabric bag when not in use to help preserve its shape.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by in-house experts before sale. Authentication takes into account details such as materials, construction, stitching, hardware, stamps, and overall consistency, so you can shop pre-owned luxury with confidence.
