Chanel Classic Flap - Small vs Medium vs Large sizes

I have a dilemma and I need help! I had a jumbo flap once before, but sold it since I think its too bulky when I carry it with one long chain (that's how I always carry it). Now I have a GST which I love, but thinking of selling it since its too bulky when carry. I'm thinking of getting a m/l flap now, but I don't is it will fit me or not. I'm 5'9 and around 135lbs. Is the m/l chain as long as the jumbo chain when carry with one long chain? TIA :smile1:
 
Medium flap is a good size for me but I didn't like the idea that there is no cross body option for medium flap.
Jumbo is fine and I can bring more stuff with me with cross body option. I'm 5'8 and the medium flap makes me look bulky and fat. My SA told me that medium strap is not made long compared to the new mini or jumbo. I see why because I can't use it as cross body and can't even fit through it.

I don't know how tall are you. I always like more options. I ended up getting the jumbo instead of medium flap

Earthx: the medium strap is shorter than the jumbo. When I try to do cross body with medium flap, I can't fit through and I'm 5'8.
When I uses jumbo as cross body, the bag is down to my hips.
 
Hi, my first post here. I recently bought the beige jumbo from Selfridges London and love it. I have the M/L too small for me. I am 5'6" and not thin ;-D I do still wonder when looking at pictures on the forum why my jumbo looks 'normal' on me but looks huge on others. Could be a matter of proportion, but would be good to get some feedback.

I am 5'9" and not thin either and I'm debating between the m/l and the jumbo. Have until tomorrow at 1pm to make my decision! I agree, it looked normal on me but when I see it on others here who are either shorter or thinner it looks huge on them.

Can I ask what made you chose the jumbo over the m/l? I loved the size of the m/l (I was there returning the mini, which was way too small) but I'm a sucker for a cross body bag and the jumbo didn't look as huge as I thought it would.

Hi agentemily007, I chose mainly because of the color and because I somehow like bigger bags.

It is best to try both the small and m/l to see which one would work best for you. Personally, I would choose the m/l over the small for that little extra room inside. Good luck deciding!
