I have an older metallic blue striped reissue and an older light gold metallic Reissue. They didn’t rub or peel, but I recall that a lot of TPFers had issues. I thought the runway pic posted looked fabulous but the actual IRL bag posted here looked like a train wreck. JMOChanel metallic leather is famous for rubbing off/ peeling. I am sure this particular bag is going to be even worse given how they made the leather in a “dry and crumbled” finish. You’ve made a good decision.
I like the one on leftcan´t make up my mind on that one haha.. one has the most gorgeous front flap but is a bit boring on the rest, the other one is the other way around...maybe I should pass If I don´t absolutely love one...

you’re right! the lock closes a tiny bit out of angle. it’s not dramatic and a lot of reissues have it, but it’s something that bothers me. otherwise I think I would’ve already bought it. also the back looks a bit boring. but it still has one of the best fronts I‘ve seen...+1
But it doesn’t sound like you love it, so pass!
What’s about it that makes you hesitate- just the colour or something else?
I find that usually, if I second guess myself and ask here, I don’t love the bag well enough to keep it.you’re right! the lock closes a tiny bit out of angle. it’s not dramatic and a lot of reissues have it, but it’s something that bothers me. otherwise I think I would’ve already bought it. also the back looks a bit boring. but it still has one of the best fronts I‘ve seen...
True! if I really want a bag I jump on it and don’t start posting here... ah well..I find that usually, if I second guess myself and ask here, I don’t love the bag well enough to keep it.
If it’s just those two reasons you mentioned, then keep looking and see if you find “the one”. Otherwise, there are always other bags to focus on![]()
I’m new to reissue. Love this rainbow. Wat is the meaning ‘leather is dry’? Does is it mean it will crack in further ?
