Hi! I have the bag in green and the size 225, but I did try on the 226 whilst in the store. So yes, it was available in 226 when it came out last year
Thank you! Now, I could watch the pre-loved market for it patiently. Do you remember if it was more red or brown when you tried it on? I've tried the 225 in store but was in a rush so I couldn't remember clearly on the colour.Hi! I have the bag in green and the size 225, but I did try on the 226 whilst in the store.

You're very welcome!
There is actually a red version of this bag too. But it's weird coz I remember how I only saw the green and bronze color on the website last year. But I tried on the red in the store as well (seriously all 3 colors of this bag were gorgeous!). Here's a photo of me trying it in the size 225. Hopefully it will be helpful to you

Wow what a beautiful color! This is my dream bag! May I ask where you found this beauty?
For those who happen to have both a quilted and chevron 2.55 of the same size: Is there a slight difference in bag shape/size and chain length between chevron and quilted? I noticed these very slight variances between a chevron and quilted coco handle where the chevron was a little smaller and the strap was 1” shorter. Would also love to see photos to both side by side worn crossbody. I can’t seem to decide between the two! I’m looking at getting either a 225 or 226. Thank you!!
Fellow reissue lovers, how do you keep your bags from losing its shape (sagging, slouching into it's natural wrinkles...)? And, for those who've had theirs for a few years, how have they kept up?
I want mine to keep its base flat (ie. able to sit standing up like a classic flap)
Any help will be much appreciated, so happy to be joining the reissue club!

Brought from Xexilia Lam at Timelesslikeaudrey (you can search her IG) she sells and source bags for client in the prelove market. All her bags are stunning and amazing condition! Her service is great so Highly recommend her! I was searching for this bag for ages and she managed to find one for me super quick!
I use a bag pillow when storing my bags. When using my Reissue 227, I have an insert
For those of you who like the pointy bottoms on your Reissues, how do you store your bag?
I've tried both the flat bottom and the bowing bottom and I have to say I prefer the latter. I didn't even realize this until today because I was so in love w my Reissue 226 at the boutique and then I go home (not realizing I had flattened the bottom by having my bag out on display and using it) and I feel ehhh. I thought it was the size.
Well today, I folded my Reissue back to how it was when I got it and that was it!! Turns out I prefer the Reissue closer to my body frame. Anyone on the same boat?
