Hermes Bolide or Chanel Classic Flap (Maxi)

[namie]

As mentioned in the subject heading. Which do you think is a better choice? They are similar in elegance and price point. I have a Chanel Jumbo and a Hermes Bolide. So wonder if I am to get another one, which will be better?

I find the maxi looks too much like a briefcase, there's also a lot of weight on the chains (and on your coat). If you love the Bolide that you have already, just go for a very different colour (or leather) that's what I'd do anyway.

I'd choose a Bolide. Let us know your decision.

My choice would be the Boldie. Good luck deciding

Thanks. I'll think about it. My trip is next week.

Maxi flap for sure.

They are both so different than each other, it would depend on how you plan to use it. I personally find the look of the Bolide more casual than the Chanel flap, both love both equally.

Between the 2, I would choose the bolide. Happy shopping and safe travels.

The Bolide fore sure. It's understated elegance.

I love the maxi, but if you're using it for travels, then I would opt for the bolide. Safe trip!!

Bolide. To me any flap size beyond the Jumbo or 226 reissue looks awkward. Bolides are the original Dome style. Although I do not like the shoulder strap on it as it latches on the handle buckle and do not have a designated latch.

Hi. I bought the Maxi in the end. I still like Bolide. Maybe the next purchase.
