I’m only looking at the black colour.
I honestly like the look of the Gucci Marmont flap bag better and it would go with most of my wardrobe, however I feel like the bag has already had its time - I don’t see too many fashionistas rocking the Marmont anymore and I’m afraid of purchasing a trendy bag that will look dated very soon (if not already played out).
I’ve heard amazing things about the Soho Disco - I like how simple it is though it is quite boxy-looking for a crossbody. However it has grown on me and I like the fact that it is considered a more “classic” piece by Gucci and can be worn with super casual outfits. But a lot of my friends and family actually hate the look of the Soho Disco and would rather I just get something else, like a Louis Vuitton Speedy LOL (which could also be considered dated!)
I do not plan on ever selling the bag I purchase and will be using it for many years to come.
What are your thoughts on both bags? Do you prefer one or the other, or should I skip both and just splurge on another brand?

What do you plan to use it for? How often are you going to use this bag? I was deciding between the Soho Disco and Marmont camera bag (small) so our dilemmas are quite similar.

Since I want to use mine as a workhorse, worry-free bag, I've opted for the Soho Disco. Aesthetically, I like the Marmont collection, but at the end of the day, I'm choosing function/ lightweight over looks.

I wanted a casual bag for when I travel, go shopping, visit friends or family. I wouldn’t abuse the bag everyday but not save it for special occasions either (already have specific bags for these). Most likely will just use it on weekends.

How do you like the Soho Disco? Do you find it goes well with a lot of your outfits? I personally think it looks better when it’s not too structured and is a bit slouchy. When it’s a perfect box shape, it looks awkward against my body (I’m super tiny and petite lol).
