Story

Lagerfeld named the Boy for Coco's great love, Boy Capel, and gave it a brick-pattern frame and a chunky gutter chain — the flap's tougher sibling. Photographed here with its full set: authenticity card, care booklet, and dust bag, which is how a complete example should present.

Authentication checklist

1. Brick frame quilting is bordered by smooth channels — check the corners for peeling first
2. Push-lock CC has a matte ruthenium finish; shiny silver suggests a different hardware variant

Care notes

Wipe smooth leather with a soft dry cloth after use and condition only occasionally with a neutral leather balm — test any product inside first, and keep it away from perfume and hand sanitiser. Store the bag stuffed with acid-free paper, upright in its dust bag (not its box — leather needs airflow), away from direct sun and heat. Rest chains and hardware against a soft cloth so metal never presses into light leather for a season. Carry it in rotation rather than entombing it: leather that is aired, carried occasionally, and re-stuffed ages far better than leather stored untouched for years.
