For gallery openings, dinner dates or chic weekend strolls, the Saint Laurent Medium Sunset in light beige crocodile-embossed leather brings polished glamour. Its sliding chain strap and silver-toned hardware complement both tailored looks and refined eveningwear. In very good condition, it’s an elegant choice when you want understated luxury to take centre stage.
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.
Q: What typically fits in the Saint Laurent Sunset Medium? A: With its structured silhouette (approx. 22 × 16 × 6.5 cm), it comfortably holds a large smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, and slim sunglasses. A full-size water bottle or bulky cases are not recommended. Capacity varies with how you pack and whether you use a continental wallet; see below for fit tips.
Q: Can I wear it on the shoulder and crossbody? Is the strap adjustable? A: Yes. The sliding chain strap can be worn doubled on the shoulder or extended for crossbody. The drop is about 28 cm when doubled and approximately 51 cm when worn long on this piece. The strap is not detachable.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The Sunset Medium is a functional, structured flap bag with two main compartments, one front pocket under the flap, and a large back slip pocket. It closes with a magnetic flap and features the YSL monogram on the front.
Q: Will it fit an iPhone Pro Max or a continental wallet? A: A large smartphone (including Pro Max-sized models) fits comfortably. A slim continental wallet up to roughly 19 cm can fit, but a compact wallet or cardholder maximises space and keeps the gussets from stretching.
Q: Is this real crocodile leather? A: No. It is crocodile-embossed calfskin, meaning the pattern is stamped into calf leather to mimic the look of exotic skins while offering the durability of calfskin.
Q: Is the chain heavy? Is this a good everyday bag? A: The Sunset is robust and holds its shape well. The metal chain adds some weight, so it can feel weightier when fully packed. Many users find it versatile for day-to-night wear, especially when not overfilled.
Q: How do I care for the light beige croc-embossed leather? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; avoid moisture, oils, and harsh cleaners. Store stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct heat/sunlight. Take care with dark denim or heavily dyed fabrics to minimise colour transfer, and avoid overfilling to preserve the structured gussets.
Q: Is the magnetic closure safe for credit cards and hotel keys? A: Modern chip (EMV) credit and debit cards are generally unaffected by typical handbag magnets. Traditional magnetic-stripe cards (including many hotel key cards) can be sensitive, so keep them in an interior pocket away from the magnet to be safe.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This piece comes with a luggage tag. Everything included is listed under Accessories; if an item like a dust bag or authenticity card is not listed, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: External condition: good, with some corner scuffing. Internal condition: very good with light traces of use. Hardware: shiny with light scratches. Overall: very good pre-loved condition.
