I think a lot of women love the classic flap jumbo. The size is roomy enough for everyday use but it isn't overwhelmingly big. Another favorite seems to be the GST but IMO that seems to be more of a work/daytime bag, whereas a classic flap can also transition nicely into the night (especially the smaller ones).

I posted a new thread but just realised maybe I should have posted the question here. Sorry.

Can someone please tell me what is the difference between matte distressed & crackled leather and the 05 anniversary limited edition reissue. I had read a number of threads but still can't figure what the differences are.

Thanks very much.

I know that this was answered but I do think it comes in caviar because I have one in white:

harley that's not a reissue. That's a hybrid which came in washed caviar, mm lock and bijoux chain not the reissue chain.

Ah - thanks for the info - you learn something new everyday.

I have both styles...the classic flap has the double CCs which are part of the lock..the reissue bag is the style that was brought out in 2005 .it has the flat square lock and the chains are plain without any leather woven in them as are the classics. The vintage classics range in 3 different sizes..

Not sure if this is the place to post this, but can someone tell me if the white jumbo flap with bijoux chain is a seasonal bag or is it in the permanent collection? I saw one of the members posting a pic of it, but I haven't seen it around much. Thank you!
