I don't have many bags, and only 2 Chanel bagsPlease use your bag unless you are a collector of course.
Maybe you should carry it for dinner dates or special events at first, I think bag becomes special once we add more memories to it. I had a white 22 bag that one started peeling, cracking but chanel refunded me since bag was I think less than 2 weeks old. Sooo, I think it’s a hit or miss with quality issues. However my other pink 22 held up well. I don’t insert anything into my 22 because I like the soft slouchy look maybe because of that slouchy look corners of my pink 22 has no visible wear. Also this has some kind of coating so I just wipe off any stains after a wear. Mine is from the very first release of 22. I also added recent purple one in mini size. They been to many places, boba drinks, trips, restaurants and even grocery shopping. I love 22, whatever material they used for the bag ( leather or pleather ha ha) so far ( fingers crossed) my pink and purple one holding up well! Don’t be afraid just carry it to a lunch date, coffee date and add some memories when you need that extra pick me up energy with chanel.I don't have many bags, and only 2 Chanel bagsI feel a little bit uncomfortable taking it out and nervous to ruin it! Does anyone else feel this way?

I’m not scared to use any of my bags. In fact, I like to have some ware as I prefer the look of bags that conveys comfort, convenience, and ease of use. I also like to do some DIY to my bags like fixing the corners with sharpie and leather cream if some ware happened. So please own your bag (not the other way around) and make it your trusted accessory that makes you smile.I don't have many bags, and only 2 Chanel bagsI feel a little bit uncomfortable taking it out and nervous to ruin it!
