Interesting comparison of the mini reissue in black from 22p vs previous season sizes credit to IG @caryl.lifestyle and how Chanel appears to have ‘shrunk’ the size of the bag...of course the price has remained the same and anticipating another increase. :tdown:

This is my first mini reissue so it hasn’t made a difference for me but seems kinda cheeky for them to change it. It seems to have only affected the black and white this season as the blue is still the same size. Interesting though nonetheless - wonder what the reasons are besides the obvious ones?

That looks similar to the So Black I received and returned. When I looked at the one I got, it wasn't a matter of pushing the leather back or making it more malleable: there was actually more leather on the one side than the other. Hopefully this isn't the case with yours, and yours hopefully is something that can just remediate over time with use.

Don’t give up hope yet! There could be a waitlist but I also joined the party really late and messaged two SAs from different boutiques in Singapore that I was looking for one last Wed and there happened to be a new shipment last Fri and she messaged me that they just received the black mini reissue that I was looking for! This was despite not having any purchase history or a prior waitlist with her as I bought my CF from the other SA who told me that she will keep a lookout for me in future collections (probably out of stock this late into 22P)

Since 22P isn’t over yet although it’s late into the season, there could still be new shipments coming in! (:

Oh thank you so much for your support! :heart: You‘re giving me hope! If only my SA would get one and give her to me earlier - I can’t wait to start using her to work and in my free time as well! :love:
If this style, leather and lock work out for me, I might consider getting a reissue in M/L as my carefree everyday bag :girlsigh:

Thank you so much for sharing. I will examine this again as this came flat during purchase. So far i haven't had any issues with my chanel bags and i hope this will work out after use.

Hi! Can I ask which store you managed to get the black mini reissue from? I’m from Singapore too :smile:

Does anyone have a reissue in metallic silver? Is it ok as a casual day bag? I like it but am worried it will look silly as my every day bag. I don’t switch out bags often.

Hi,
Do you have a photo of the one you are talking about? I think it depends on how shiny it is. I have these with some sheen on, not so metallic. They are my favorite everyday bags.
