Hi! I am thinking of buying a Chanel boy bag in black, caviar leather with silver hardware . However the caviar leather is not available right now. Only the smooth calfskin is available. Further, the videos I watched warms again buying the boy bag citing material issues and the structure collapsing. So I’m worried about how well it will wear in the long term.
On the other hand I do love the classic flap bag in black but it’s available only in gold hardware currently and I already have a black ysl Lou Lou in gold hardware. I don’t want to end up with two similar bags ..
Would appreciate your thoughts on this
