I ordered a red maxi lambskin and just got it from fedex guy about an hour ago. When i opened it, it looks perfect. I tried to put the basic things: my heavy wallet, cosmetic case, keys and my small mobile phone. It didn't have any wings. After awhile I tried carrying it again and there it goes... the left side started flying away. The right side looks ok but the left side just folded up. When it's just sitting down you wouldn't see the problem but when you start carrying it, when the chain is pulling the bag the wings started to fly. I really like the bag but I feel that over time the flying away will worsen and will destroy the look of it. The bag is brand new but it looks worn out because of the fold its creating.
I don't know if I'll try another one. I think that all maxis will be the same because of the softness of the leather.
I suggest that if you're going to buy one make sure that you yourself test how the bag will hold up. I specifically asked my SA to give me the perfect one, to put things inside and see how the structure goes after that. I think she really did it but the test she made wasn't long enough for her to see what happens afterwards.
I ordered my bag from Saks by mail I'm just not sure if I can do an in store return in the Saks here which doesn't carry Chanels. Anyone knows? TIA!
