Clare V. Petit Moyen Dupe — Quince Sloane Handwoven Mini Shoulder Bag (90% Match)

Why the Quince Sloane Looks Like the Petit Moyen

The construction lines up piece by piece. Both bags are wide, horizontal crescents with a dipped top edge, rounded bottoms and pointed, turned-up ends, and both sit flat against the body at roughly the same footprint — Quince states 8" high by 11.75" wide by 1.25" deep against the Petit Moyen's 11" wide by 7.5" high. Both are genuinely handwoven leather, not a woven print, both close with a zip across the top, and both carry the same two-strap system: a short removable shoulder strap plus a longer removable adjustable crossbody strap. The Quince lining is cotton twill; the Clare V. lining is chambray.

What Looks Similar?

• Wide horizontal crescent silhouette with dipped top edge and pointed ends
• handwoven leather body
• zip top closure
• removable shoulder strap plus removable adjustable crossbody strap
• flat mini profile
• near-identical width and height.

What's Different?

• The weave gauge is visibly different — Quince's weave is finer and tighter, a small diamond repeat, while the Clare V. weave is coarser with larger, more open checks (clearest on the Saltillo colour). The Clare V. short shoulder strap looks thicker and more padded in photos than the Quince's thinner short strap. Quince states a slightly larger bag: 0.75" wider and 0.5" taller than the Petit Moyen. Stated strap drops differ between the listings (Quince 9" shoulder / 19.5–22.5" crossbody vs the official Clare V. page 16¼" / 41½") — the photos show the same two-strap system, so this reads as a listing measurement difference, not a shape difference. Lining differs: cotton twill on the Quince, chambray on the Clare V. Interior differs too: the Sloane has one inside zipper pocket and three card holders, while the official Petit Moyen page states no interior or exterior pockets. Clare V. depth is not stated on the official page either, so no depth comparison is claimed.

Is the Quince Sloane Worth It?

Yes, plainly: this is a 90% match, and at $120 from Quince against $425 for the Petit Moyen it is the rare dupe where you give up almost nothing you can see. The crescent shape, the woven leather, the zip top and the two-strap carry all behave the way the original does, and the flat mini size is an easy everyday carry — tablet, phone, wallet, keys — without the bulk of a full-size bag. Quince buyers rate it 4.8 out of 5 from 3,395 reviews, and all five leather colours were in stock at $120 on the day this page was checked. The finer weave and thinner short strap are real, small differences, and they are the reason this is 90% and not higher — but for $305 less, the value beats the designer markup by a wide margin.
