Compagnon ( Balenciaga Wallet)

[l_b]

Hi ladies..
I need a new wallet and i'm in love with the compagnon ...
Do you think that for the same price is better a classic wallet (LV, Chanel, Gucci) ?

I have two Compagnon's ... one in Black and the other in Bordeaux. I find them very useful (especially as they zipper up), however, I would have to say that you can't beat Louis Vuitton ... they (L/V) seem to last FOREVER. I've had some of their wallets for 20+ years (some were from my Aunt's estate ... those are over 30+ years old, and they still look great!).

Agree with CeeJay- LV wallets last atleast 20 years. The only thing about LV is some of the threading comes loose after many years of use.

I've never seen a Compagnon before! Cute! I also like the name--which means "companion." That would be a good name for a handbag!

I'm assuming these wallets come in assorted colours like the bags--how fun!

I vote for the Compagnon! (In case you hadn't guessed that already! )

I think it looks really cute! For the kind of money though, I would rather buy a Chanel wallet. Lots of people like to match their bags and wallets though, and I am more a fan of having a little of everything.

i think the compagnon wallet is cute... but i'd probably buy an LV wallet... good luck with what you decide!

I will take the bwallet any day over the LV wallet.

I like the Compagnon wallet, it's a bit more unusual, and definitely harder to get then the LV. The leather on the wallets is amazing and they are great for travel.

i have the compagnon and simply love it. it has lots of compartments and slots. it's huge and works nice as a clutch too.

I have just bought a Lilac Compagnon from http://www.cultstatus.com.au/index.php....
They usually don't accept credit card for international orders but they did it in order to avoid Western Union Fees...
They are really kind!!
