Ahhh I'm so glad you're loving the reissue! I only really use mini bags, which is why I'm so into the 224.

It's definitely a bag I'd re-buy but in a different material (a nice Chanel tweed!!!).

My one is black and gold...IT IS SO AMAZING.

I spent the longest time trying to decide between the brushed silver vs. gold, but when I saw them in real life the gold sang!!



Keep an eye out on all the second-hand online stores; Vestiaire sees 224 once every month or so!


Black and gold is quintessential Chanel. [emoji7] It is truly amazing!

Thanks for the tip. I haven't bought from Vestiaire before. Will check it out! [emoji3]

Tha chain lenght is too short for my huge frame to use as a crossbody. So I can only wear it as a shoulderbag.

Is it possible to order extention on the chain at the chanel store?

Congrats on your beautiful reissue 224! Thank you for posting the pics, esp the interior and what fits inside. They're very helpful. [emoji3]

Hi, there is still more room. I can also fit in the iphone 6 plus sideway behind the lv clay and the cc coin/card thingy. And it will close nicely and still be more room for other goodies on the side [emoji4]

I have an iphone 6+ too! Glad to hear that it fits and that there's still more room. Thank you for mentioning that.

I was watching a bronze 224 on ebay but I waited too long, it's now sold. Because I already have 2 black 226's, I'm aiming for a colored 224. Can't wait to finally join this club! [emoji3]
 
Hi guys, I know this is the 224 club but there isn't one for 226. I actually only have a general question about Reissue bags. I just purchased one and I was wondering what is considered normal wear. Unfortunately, I've watched all the videos I could find on YouTube about this bag and didn't get my answer. I've read how they normally come flat or creased at the bottom, which mine has, but I've seen unboxing videos where the bottom doesn't have that crease. Mine is the 2005 version and the black seems little faded. I'm not sure if this part of the "distressed" look or if this is from normal wear. Any input would be much appreciated. Thank you so much!!

k5ml3k - maybe your bag leather is a little dry? Needs some moisturising if it has faded. I will pack my 224 bag flat when travelling but once it is flattened out and stuffed again any crease disappears. Try moisturising the leather with a little non-silicone leather conditioner and see if that helps. Maybe the bag has been stored flatpacked for sometime.
