Does anybody have a Bal First/City to compare to 226 and 227?

[Alaska]

I'd appreciate it so much.

I live in Alaska and there are no Chanel bags sold in this state. I'm guessing that the Balenciaga First is comparable to the 226? And the 227 is comparable in height and length to a LV Speedy 30- not as deep but as tall and long.

Pleeease post some quick pics if you can- thanks ladies!!!

Hi frozen_alaska,

Unfortunately I don't have any more bal firsts to directly compare anymore, but the first can hold more than the 226 - I'd say the amount a first can hold is similar to a 227. I think that's just due to the slouchiness factor of bbags so there's a lot more give.

I think taking a look at the 'what fits in your...' threads should help you out with making a comparison...

I believe the First/City fits more than the 226 and the 227.

Thank you! I will now proceed to hunt for 227's.
