What size is the most popular for the 22 bag? I noticed the difference is minimal especially when worn but I can’t decide between small and medium. I’m not taking into account proportions to your own height/size but more so just wondering what the most sought after size is. What proportions does the bag look best in based on the overall dimensions of the bag itself. Think medium classic flaps are usually the “safe” size, mediums for boys, etc
 
Ok, so I went to the boutique thinking for sure I wanted the white 22. I loved it but I saw the navy and fell in LOVE. it’s the perfect shade and looked so gorgeous with the gold hardware. I can’t emphasize enough how beautiful this is in person and so comfortable. I bought the small size. I’m 5’10” and a size 6 for reference.

lovely! May I know what you can fit?
 
I know I pissed all over the 22 bag several days ago on this thread, but I just saw this and must have it lol.
This tweed version is so unique and lovely. I've always wanted a tweed bag from Chanel and this may be the perfect one that I can use on a daily basis! I still don't like the leather versions of 22 bags, but this fun tweed piece definitely deserves a place in my closet.

Managed to try on 22 bags in Chanel.
Couldn’t decide on the size and color.
All colors I tried on are in Small size, only black is in Medium.
Black with white Chanel is in Matte calf leather while others are in shiny calf leather.
I was originally leaning towards small size but the blue one looks really small on me.
I’m 160cm by the way.
Which color and size do you all like?

I think you can rock either size, depending on what you usually carry. Thanks for sharing the comparison photos. Personally, I’d go with the small
 
THANK YOU both for the pictures! So helpful for those of us who can't try it on in a boutique before purchasing.

I was so set on the black with gold but that shade of navy looks beautiful. I'm having the same small vs. medium debate as many others but I think the small looks more everyday. Probably depends on what it will be used for, but it looks like it can hold essentials and a bit more.

I've heard many ppl like how it's a really light bag, but does this mean the leather is thin?

Wondering how wear and tear will be, especially if I'll be throwing in water bottle, umbrella etc. which will make it heavier.
Saw a youtube video where someone showed that it can fit a laptop, but I wonder if that'll stretch the leather out
 
For me, it’s a pass, I don’t have enough stuff to put in it. It kind of reminds me of the Hermes Bridado Backpack that can be used as a shoulder tote. I saw it in person at my local stand alone and it was really big.
