I love my 25 bags but I am put off by Chanel gifting this bag to so many influencers. Traditionally they never gifted bags (except to friends of the house like established actresses and models) but this time it’s been widely gifted and it’s the first time in seeing this. I’ve seen quite a few influencers thanking Chanel. It cheapens the brand in my opinion. Ive seen Louis Vuitton, Dior and other brands do this and it’s off putting.

THIS! 💯. Makes me feel like a sheep in the herd. I was not a fan at first glance but the more I see it…esp on some of the stars like Jennie.. I’m liking it. Sad to say I’m definitely being influenced and their marketing is working 🤣
 
What is everyone’s opinion on the small 25 in black denim?
I actually love both of my reserved. Got a black denim in Small and Medium in light denim. I tried on the cavier in both sizes before my denims came in and actually love the denim more than the cavier.🫣

Congrats on scoring such nice bags! Can I ask how do you like your small black denim? @Gatto has the medium black denim and it looks amazing on her but I failed to even able to try on a medium in person at my local boutique :(

Today my wonderful SA was able to secure me a small black denim and she said it will be arrive in 10 days!!! I am over the moon but also nervous as this is definitely a blind purchase for me. Would love to hear your thoughts on the small black denim, small vs. medium, and black denim vs. blue as you are so lucky to have both. Thank you 😊

This would be my first ever denim bag so i hope I didn’t make a mistake not going with the black caviar.

In my country - Singapore - the 25 bag can't be reserved (at least for normal customers, I'm not a VVIP!). I'm on the wishlist and last Friday the black small + medium came back in stock (on the hunt for one for my mom), wanted to head down to the boutique 1hr after my SA's text message but alas I was too slow the black small was sold out already :lol:

The small size is definitely more popular here!

I wish I could try the small and medium on to compare. Some days I’m sure that I would prefer the small, then i see the medium on IG and I think maybe it would be more functional. Some people report that the small sits too high under the armpit when worn on the shoulder and that you can’t quite totally close it, so your items aren’t 100% secure. But, the medium looks like it hangs quite low on the hip and you can’t shorten the shoulder strap to bring it up an inch or so.

I honestly wish they had made a size between the small and medium. I’m am very surprised that they elected to instead make a third size option that is BIGGER than the medium. More like a luggage piece.
