Chanel Boy Red Studded Chevron Old Medium
A bold and highly collectible statement piece, the Chanel Boy Old Medium in Red Studded Chevron reinterprets the House’s iconic Boy silhouette with a striking combination of edgy hardware and structured quilting. Designed under Karl Lagerfeld’s modern vision for Chanel, the Boy bag is known for its architectural form, graphic lines, and masculine-feminine contrast.
Crafted in rich red quilted calfskin or lambskin leather (depending on release), this version features a distinctive chevron quilting pattern, giving the surface a sharp, directional texture. The design is elevated with stud embellishments, adding a rebellious, fashion-forward edge that sets it apart from classic Boy iterations.
The bag is finished with Chanel’s signature antique gold or ruthenium-tone hardware and the iconic CC push-lock clasp, reinforcing its instantly recognizable identity. A chunky leather-woven chain strap with padded shoulder support allows for comfortable shoulder or crossbody wear, balancing utility with statement design.
