I think that minis are too common because of the price point. It is good that reissues are more expensive, because they are prettier and also more rare, which makes them even better. I love mine and I want to add a 227 soon.

thank you kindly to both of you, South Beach & aki_sato....appreciate it. I am deeply in love with that bag.
This is one of my favorite threads! Love seeing everyone's reissues, I'm hoping to have one soon [emoji16][emoji38] I wanted to know how can you tell between reissue sizes, like 226 and 227? Does anyone know what size Wendy from Wendy's Lookbook is? See attached pic.
Hers appears to be a 226 from a glance. She's quite petite and a 227 would look huge on her.
Hi babe! I know this is an oldpost but do u remember which store and country you saw this at? I just picked one up in Athens on a holiday and I was curious if it was released in the US. Thanks.
Kendie! This is so lovely! I've never been keen on chevron but this has changed my mind.
Thank you dear clevercat....& hey, I understand because I wasn't crazy about chevron at first eitherKendie! This is so lovely! I've never been keen on chevron but this has changed my mind.
but not i'm obsessed with it!! Why & how does that happen?!
Kindest thanks
You guys who own the jumbo and reissue 226, which do you recommend over the other? I'm 5'7 so a big bag won't look bad on my frame. I just wanted a bigger bag for daily use.
I personally picked the reissue over the jumbo. The reissue looks smaller but more or less fits the same amount as the jumbo. Also, the reissue is a fair bit lighter, so that is something to consider if you dont like heavy bags.
I'm 5'8" almost 5'9" and of average/slim build and i felt that the chain length was still a bit too long to wear on the shoulder single strap for the jumbo but the bag is too big to wear cross body in my opinion. You can play around with the straps to shorten them but i do feel that it is a bit of a hassle. The reissue on the other hand has the perfect strap length for me.
For me the reissue is pretty much my ultimate bag, i always preferred the m/l size classic flap but it just didnt fit enough so the reissue is a happy medium between the size of the m/l and how much the jumbo can fit. Hope this helps a little

Thank you so much! I'm def leaning towards the reissue. I love the classic bag but do want to add a reissue to my collection.
