i didn't even realize there were two diff size spies. i thought it was just the papa size one and then the baby. there's a mama spy?! oOO, jpmasson i'm just as curious as you.
The 2005 large spy is extremely uncommon. It is 2 inches wider (18-20 inches wide) and has a 8 inch handle drop. Height top to bottom is 8-10 inches...I give estimates because these bags have a shape that it depends where you measure, etc. The spy compartment has a 7 inch diameter, about 2 inches wider than regular spy we see today.
and I am "large boned" as they say...tall also, so it looks great and feels good over the shoulder! After carrying all the handbags at Nordies & Barnies yesterday, I wonder why they haven't brought the large Spy back . Seems a lot of the handbags today (various brands, Chanel/YSL/Prada etc.) fit like it, over the shoulder & quite large...and it is so cool
