Saint Laurent Puffer Medium Review

Description

The YSL Puffer was launched in 2019 as a play on the successful Loulou Line. Indeed the Puffer feels very similar to the Loulou, just a little bit more.. puffy. It has been described as a “squishy pillow” in the “softest lambskin leather”. The line feels a bit more casual and less structured than the Loulou line while still being very classy and sophisticated. It comes in 3 sizes: a toy, small and a medium (sometimes called large in the bag community). The Puffer line is very on trend, and, like the Chanel 19 it was spotted on many celebrities and influencers. 

The Puffer comes in black and cream as well as many seasonal colors. It also comes in different hardware: gold, silver, ruthenium and black hardware as well as different materials: lambskin, crinkled calfskin, shearling, denim, etc.

Like the Loulou, the Puffer features a beautiful chain strap with leather pads which you can wear it long (on your shoulder or crossbody) or you can double it up and wear it on your shoulder.

The Medium Puffer is the biggest Puffer bag and perfect for someone who needs to carry more than just essentials on a day to day basis. The Toy, Small and Medium Puffer look very similar, featuring the same quilted leather and beautiful chain with leather pads, however, the Medium is significantly bigger and is best worn on the shoulder with the strap doubled. When worn as a single strap it measures 19 inches and doubled up it is 10 inches which is slightly shorter than the Small Puffer.

In our opinion, the Medium (or Large as it is sometimes called) Puffer makes a great bag for work as it fits quite a lot, including an iPad, a notebook, water bottle and it is also very trendy and stylish. However, one must note that unfortunately it does not fit a laptop.
