The Chanel Lambskin Quilted New Medium Boy Flap in black with gold hardware is a bold, modern classic that bridge the gap between daytime utility and evening edge. The “New Medium” size (also referred to as the Large on the official Chanel website) was introduced to offer a roomier alternative to the original “Old Medium” silhouette.
Core Design & Material
-
Material: Crafted from luxurious black lambskin leather, featuring the house’s signature diamond-quilted center and smooth leather borders.
-
Boy CC Push-Lock: Defined by a graphic gold-tone double C push-button clasp that has an industrial, bold feel.
-
Signature Hardware: Features a chunky gold-tone “gourmette” chain link strap with an adjustable leather shoulder pad for comfort.
-
Structure: Known for its angular, boxy silhouette and broad triple-border frame that distinguishes the Boy line from traditional flap bags.
Specifications & Utility
-
Dimensions (New Medium): Approximately 28 cm W x 18 cm H x 9 cm D (approx. 11″ x 7″ x 3.5″).
-
Internal Layout: The flap opens to a fabric-lined interior (typically black) that includes a long internal patch pocket.
-
Capacity: The “New Medium” is notably roomier than the Old Medium, providing extra storage for daily essentials like a large smartphone, sunglasses case, wallet, and a small makeup pouch.
-
Versatility: The adjustable strap allows it to be worn as a long shoulder bag or doubled up for a shorter drop, though many users find the New Medium’s boxier size better suited for shoulder wear rather than crossbody.
