Q: What typically fits inside the Chloé Paddington Medium? A: Based on the measurements shown here (approx. 36 × 13 × 17 cm), it comfortably holds a long wallet, smartphone, keys, a small make-up pouch, sunglasses case, and a small notebook. It is not designed to fit a laptop or A4 folders upright; slim A4 papers may fit if placed carefully but may curl at the edges.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder? A: The Paddington satchel is primarily designed to be handheld or carried in the crook of the arm. The drop on this piece is around 20 cm, so some may manage a snug shoulder carry over light clothing, but it is not intended as a shoulder-first bag.
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.

It is not designed to fit a laptop or A4 folders upright; slim A4 papers may fit if placed carefully but may curl at the edges.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder? A: The Paddington satchel is primarily designed to be handheld or carried in the crook of the arm. The drop on this piece is around 20 cm, so some may manage a snug shoulder carry over light clothing, but it is not intended as a shoulder-first bag.
Q: How does the signature padlock and key work? A: The top zip has leather tabs/loops designed to be secured with the padlock. Unlock the padlock with the key, thread it through the tab/loop to close, and lock again if desired. Many owners wear the padlock decoratively and keep the keys in the small key holder; take care to avoid the padlock rubbing directly against the leather when storing.
Q: Is the Paddington heavy? A: Yes—the original 2000s Paddington gained a reputation for being weighty due to its substantial leather and metal padlock. Owners commonly report around 1.3 kg for the classic medium, though exact weight varies by batch and hardware. Modern reissues have been designed to feel lighter than the original.
Q: Is this bag a vintage original or a modern reissue? A: This is a vintage Paddington from the 2000s era. Chloé has recently reintroduced updated Paddington styles with lighter construction and refreshed details; this piece retains the classic look and proportions associated with the original It-bag.
Q: What items are included with this piece? A: This item includes a padlock and key, as stated in the product information. If a dust bag or any other item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Does the Paddington have a serial number or date code? A: Chloé used varied coding over the years. Some authentic vintage Paddingtons show a date stamp or serial-style number on an interior leather tag; others may not. The presence or format of a code is not, by itself, proof of authenticity. Our description notes if any code is present; this listing does not show a serial number.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: Wipe the leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dust, then condition sparingly with a neutral, quality leather conditioner. Avoid harsh cleaners, oils, or excessive moisture. Store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, with the padlock tucked so it cannot press into the leather. Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight and high heat. For the hardware, use a gentle dry cloth only.
Q: Will the padlock scratch the leather? A: It can if it swings freely. When carrying, position the padlock so it rests on the leather tab rather than the body, and when storing, place a soft cloth between the padlock and the leather to prevent imprints or scratching.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by our in-house specialists using multi-point criteria: leather quality and construction, stitching, edge paint, embossing with the correct accent on the “é”, hardware weight and finish (including the padlock), interior tags and any date/serial codes, and model-specific details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share additional information on request.
