Q: What typically fits inside this Chloé Medium Paddington Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 35 x 19 x 20 cm, this medium size is suitable for everyday essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and similar daily items. Capacity will vary depending on how fully you pack it, so please refer to the measurements on this page for the best guide.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. This piece has an approximate strap drop of 22 cm, which generally allows it to sit comfortably on the shoulder for many wearers. As always, the fit can vary slightly depending on frame and what you carry inside.
Q: Is the Paddington known to be a heavy bag? A: The Paddington is widely known for its substantial feel, largely because of its soft leather construction and signature oversized padlock hardware. Many collectors love this iconic look, but if you prefer very lightweight bags, it is worth keeping in mind.
Q: Is the Medium Paddington a good everyday size? A: Yes, the medium size is generally considered one of the most practical Paddington formats. It offers enough room for daily essentials while keeping the classic slouchy Paddington silhouette that made the style so recognisable.
Q: Is this the newer re-edition or an older Paddington style? A: This is a vintage pre-owned Paddington rather than the recent re-edition. That means it has the original-era character collectors often look for, including the signature oversized lock and the relaxed, heritage-inspired shape.
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.

Many collectors love this iconic look, but if you prefer very lightweight bags, it is worth keeping in mind.
Q: Does the padlock on this bag come with a key? A: Yes. According to the product information, this item includes a padlock and key, along with a dust bag.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This item is graded in very good condition. The exterior shows minor scuffing on the corners, the interior has stains, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. These details are reflected in the product information for this exact piece.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: How can I care for a vintage Chloé Paddington bag? A: To help preserve the leather, wipe it gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid overfilling it, and store it in its dust bag when not in use. It is also best to keep it away from prolonged direct sunlight, rain, high humidity and heat, as vintage leather and hardware can be sensitive over time.
Q: How is a Chloé Paddington usually authenticated? A: Authentication is normally based on the overall quality and consistency of the bag rather than one single detail. Experts typically assess the leather texture, stitching, hardware finish, logo and stamp details, interior construction and the signature padlock. As with all items sold by A Retro Tale, authenticity is vetted before sale.
