I saw this light pink square in person and it was very wrinkled. Yours looks much better. The SA told me it is because it’s made of calfskin not lambskin- not sure if that’s true.

Todays the launch for 22b and im afraid all the mini iridescent green has been delivered. So sad. Do you mind me asking if its a stand alone store or a department store that you got yours if thats okay to ask?
I finally got the call for mine this past Friday. I feel like they’re starting to ship, so there’s still hope! Crossing my fingers you get your call soon
Yes, I received my green mini. The leather is very matte almost dry feeling to the touch. Haven’t experienced leather like this before. Not too sure how I feel about it. The color is gorgeous though! I don’t have wrinkling on mine, only very minimal by some stitched areas. I did see a previous posters mini with the wrinkling, makes me concerned mine May end up like that too due the nature of the leather? Or will flaking/peeling/cracking happen over time from dry matte leather rubbing from wear? Does anyone have any extra thoughts on this?

I don’t mind at all! I shop from a Chanel inside of a dept store. I actually got my 22B iri black mini last week before I got the 22A iri green - isn’t that crazy?!
If it makes you feel better, I like the iri black better than the iri green
I think you mentioned you ordered the iri black. I’m still crossing my fingers for you on the green!!
Congrats!! Oh really? Is yours the matte leather too? I posted the green mini above .. I’m still stewing too :/
Looks kinda crusty close up
I haven't seen any greens in person this season, only a purple top handle, but the leather was really buttery on that one.Hi, thank you so much. I did get the black iridescent too. My problem is that I actually didn’t reserve the green iridescent… i asked my SA a bit late. Actually after knowing the denim on the upcoming 22b denim was not stitched I immediately canceled the denim and asked for the green iri. I was offered the green lamb but i declined and then the 22b black iri came so i got it. Now im thinking maybe I already missed it coz i have seen a few ladies in fb groups receive theirs already almost all at the same day. Like everything was delivered that day hehe. I hope there will be another drop as I really would love a green in my collection. Thanks so much for the responseI don’t mind at all! I shop from a Chanel inside of a dept store.

Wow congratulations im wondering how the leather on the green iridescent is. If its soft or
Sturdy? Have seen ladies say the green is light? Is it possible that the iridescent make it seem lighter?
The leather is lovely. Very soft. Softer than my 22b navy iridescent but I like both leathers for different reasons.
Oh thats interesting coz I believe if im not mistaken the green iridescent is calf and the black pearly iridescent is lamb yet the green iridescent is softer. I would love to see both of them for comparison… i am not a green person nor a black but for something different id love to add one too ✨
Hi all! I am so curious to know if anyone can help me with this! I recieved this 22A small classic flap in lambskin, light pink (ni681) yesterday from the boutique. I'm confused however because I legitimately cannot find this bag anywhere online - not on resale websites, not on youtube videos of the 22a collection, literally nowhere. I love every single thing about the bag except for the fact that the cc lock light gold hardware does not match the chain at all! Has anyone seen this bag anywhere, and does anyone have any insight about the inconsistency in hardware? I don't even have anything to compare it to. Would you return it over this color variance? So confusing!

I personally have not seen the new pink in lambskin, either.
I definitely see the color difference between the chain & the turn lock.. it would bother me as well. I probably would return that one- if it bothers you now it will bother you later. Certainly seems like a defect to me.
The pink color is beautiful and I can definitely see the turn lock is silver. Quality control took a day off when this bag was made. Obviously, you can't have the turn lock and the chain to be 2 different metal colors. I would exchange for another one with the same color metal in the chain and turn lock.
