I am looking to buy a Chanel backpack that I've been wanting for a long time. In terms of ease of use, practicality and the look, which one should I get? I am a curvy lady and about 5'7". I am quite obsessed with backpack even I might not use them often, and so far I only have LV. For those who own either of these backpack, what are the pros and cons, and do you love using yours? TIA!
Gabby chevron backpack or urban spirit calfskin backpack

I own a gabrielle backpack. It looks very cute an easy to style (note: I'm relatively to petite) but I wouldn't say it is practical. You can't fit that many items in there and if you want to get it I would recommend getting it in a darker color. The white part of mines has already started becoming dirty after only a few times. I would only recommend it if it fits with your lifestyle and maybe if you already have a few other chanels.
I don't currently own a urban spirit backpack but I have tried them on. I personally think they look better on non-petite individuals.

Girl I’m on the same boat here, want a Chanel backpack so bad!! I’m quite petite though and I’d like to use it as a diaper bag for going out with my toddler. Tried on the Gabby backpack in size small last week and I absolutely fell in love!!! But I didn’t go for it because it was too small for my needs. Glad I didn’t loose my senses haha... So I think it depends on how much you’d like to fit in and what makes you happy to look at. The Gabby is so versatile which I adore, but the Urban Spirit would definitely hold much more and I think it’d look great with your body frame. Good luck with your choice!!! ❤️
Are you from the US? If yes which store did you try the gabrielle backpack at? I've been on the hunt for small black one.
Yep I am in the US. I have been searching everywhere including boutique and department stores. There is no shipment coming into the US for the past year and half.
I have a backpack obsession too lol and have both the US and Gabrielle. I have the large Gabrielle so I think it fits a fair amount, but so does the US. IMO the US is more casual, and the Gabrielle is a bit dressier, but that being said, both could be dressed up or down, so that may not be much help lol. I love both and you can’t really go wrong with either one. Also fyi I was able to get my Gabrielle a few months ago from a Chanel boutique, and I’m in the US. Good luck with your choice! 
Thanks! The booutique offered rose, red, and royal blue colors. Which color did you get from the boutique a couple months ago ?I have a backpack obsession too lol and have both the US and Gabrielle.

I got the beige one... my SA located it for me and ordered it, but I think at that time there were only 2 left, so I think I may have gotten lucky.
I got the medium size in beige and black. (or is it called large? Lol, either way the bigger size)
Hi everyone! I’m not sure how to make my own post, so just posting on a backpack thread. Does anyone know what’s the name of this Chanel backpack? Hopefully I can hear back from someone

Hi there, I don’t know about the bag, but the font of that dust bag seems off. The shopping bag font looks weird too. What do you guys think? Sorry it is not the answer you were looking for!Hi everyone! I’m not sure how to make my own post, so just posting on a backpack thread. Does anyone know what’s the name of this Chanel backpack?

I agree. Plus, this reminds me of a wannabe Timeless CC backpack but the drawstring is wrong.

I think this is a dupe.
Where did you find it?
