I use the Chanel dust bag inside the flap when going out to keep my items away from scratching the leather. Just fold inward the extra fabric to fit inside or use the drawstring to have extra security, especially when travel aboard.

And if I travel by plane, I use soft neoprene material laptop pouch to keep my flap inside. There are many sizes these day. No worry going through x-ray or place under the seat. Easy zipper for access & store any boarding pass & passport too. And I just put the laptop pouch inside a soft & light weighted bag ie cotton tote or Longchamp tote.

For storage, I stuff the flap with just enough tissue paper with anti-humidity bag or my custom made 100% wool felt material, which is an excellent humidity regulator, not the commercial polyester made felt you get from craft store. All chains will be wrapped separately & extra felt with be placed between front flap & the body. At the end, the bag will be placed inside it's own dust bag & LAY FLAT for my reissues on the back while STAND UP for rigid classic 2.55 in a dark airy temp-regulated closet. :)

Just a little something that i noticed. With bags stored standing up right - it tends to create creases or it bulges out on the bottom of the bag (back or front). Especially with GST or Jumbo bags that are heavier up top and light down the bottom. This is why I store my bags in their dust bags, stuffed with tissue paper, chains wrapped and felt to protect m/l flaps. HTH

Hi guys,
How do you store your Chanel Bags? I store mine in its dust bag and in its box. I think you have to let it out in air because it is leather or it will mold, correct me if i am wrong:smile1:

I read almost every post, but I still don't know what's better. I have a lambskin chanel flap in m/l, is it better to store on it's backside or standing? I don't want it to end up being flat :( can someone answer me? TIA! I really appreciate it!

I wrap my chain too in fabric (and put inside of the bag). Don't ever forget, you can't store in the box.

Hey just curious, y not store in box?
I just got my 1st double flap. B4 now I have been a Gucci/LV kinda girl. But I love Chanel so much that I am even empressed with the dust bag. It fits the bag perfect and seems to be made to keep the chain and bag separate. Am I just dreaming? Or does the dust bag really have a flap to hold the chain?

Oh yea i did see sum type of chair protector cloth for sell on eBay. If that helps

I alternate mine, sometimes laying down, sometimes standing up. This way none crease or flatten too much.
