Chanel 2.55 Reissue Jumbo vs Hermes Constance 24

[papertiger]

For me that I can't wear the Constance x-body is a minus but likewise I am shy of any chain-straps with coats and delicate jumpers/tops so that would make me double-think the Reissue as a all-year-round.

I own 2.55, 227 size.
I wear it with leather jackets.
It is subtle enough to carry most places.
Store it upright, so no pointy bit complaints.

Constance has that huge freaking H metal closure.
Flashing, "Look at me!"
And seems to hold less, or require content item stacking.
I won't even consider one.

Best wishes.

I'm a little confused since those two are very different bags. Reissue is kind of discreet Chanel bag but Constance is obvious Hermès with big H logo on. I think it also really depends on what color you're looking for as well. Why don't you give us more data old on what you're looking for?

I meant to write “... more details on what you’re looking for?”

Have you tried both bags in person? C24 is quite large, just as eckw mentioned above, it is boxy, C18 looks nicer on me, a few months ago H Sydney allowed us to make Constance order. However, I changed my mind, as C opening is quite fiddly & resulted in crease (I attached pic). I have changed my wish list from C18 to Kelly Pochette.
Im planning on getting 226 reissue next week if the combo i wanted ever arrived in store. Good luck on ur decision

I see this crease happening with the Constance wallet as well. Bummer

Oh wow! That is a big issue.

Thank you so much for your thoughts everyone.
I decided to get the reissue in black with gold hardware
