Yes I counted about 140 Chanel 19s currently on their site. If we think that’s a lot, they have about 380 Birkins on their site for sale. Geez!
how long do you think the chanel 19 will stay relevant?

For me it has a casual vibe, which 22 has as well.
Although I personally prefer the 19, I think the 22 is becoming more relevant.

Unfortunately I have to agree in that I do believe that Chanel 19 is becoming less and less popular with each season. I was always aware that it was a trendy bag with large puffy quilts and chunky chain handle. Chanel 22 has definitely pushed the 19 out of the trendy spotlight. I do believe the 22 will be replaced as well with the next major release. It’s always wise to buy what is convenient to use and not chase the trends because they are becoming way too transient even for Chanel.
Never. It’s a Chanel bag and not a pair of jeans that go in and out of style. Chanel is classic no matter what IMO.
I also think if you love something then it shouldn’t matter what others think.

I’m of the mind that Chanel is Chanel, no matter what the style of bag, and whether or not it has It bag status. Chanel will always be cool, classy and amazing. However, the 19 has definitely lost its popularity and been replaced by the 22.
I’m trying to get rid of my 19 and there has not been any interest compared to other Chanel bags I’ve sold previously, even the Boy. I was going to replace my 19 with the 22 but I know that the 22 will go the same way. I actually think the 22 will die a harder death than the 19 because it’s such a diversion from the classic shape, whereas the 19 still has elements of the classic flap.

Wow. No interest at all in 19 from potential buyers. I agree with you that the prime at the 19 has passed and now only hard core fans will keep buying. What color is your 19? I hope that you will be able to pass it on to a good loving home as it is a good functional bag for some. I’m definitely not partying with my 19 yet. But I do not use it lately as I use my two 22. The style is extremely functional and comfortable for my need. Would love to get one more 22 in small size grey with silver HW.
I know, I’m amazed. I sold my Boy pretty easily several years after the hype had died down and still got a good price. I’m surprised that my 19 hasn’t attracted any attention, I thought it was still fairly popular. Mine is black goatskin.
I’m glad you enjoy your 22 bags. I love the 22!
Hi. I used to love my c19, but 22 is what I’ve been reaching for. It’s definitely hands down my most used, and favorite bag for daily go to. Will something else come along later and take its spot? Maybe, probably. Though, I (sadly) it won’t be my c19. I may sell it, and get another 22 (I saw an grey ombre that stole my heart). I don’t know if I’d say c19s are “dated” per se. The 22s are newer; and I like new things? 🤷♀️
Still love my C19 small in black!!💕 I reach out to it more than my classic flaps. I love that it not as structured as the classics and only has a single flap. I can’t imagine parting with it. It’s my most used Chanel next to my black WOC. I do agree that it is not as popular as it once was but it’s KL’s last design so it will stick around.
I just snagged my C19 in black, and I can’t wait to bring it on my upcoming overseas trip! I’m totally obsessed with it and honestly can’t imagine switching to the C22. I’m all about the mini’s as crossbody bags—it’s just more my vibe. Chanel bags are so versatile, there’s something for everyone 🥰
I fell hard for the 19 when it came out. I bought three. I also have 5 CFs. I definitely used the 19 more often than the CFs. My most used is a reissue. Then I had a period where I did not use any of my Chanels, then I only used the classics. I had a moment of regret about my 3 19s sitting in my closet, but the last 2 months, I've been wearing my 19s exclusively over all other bags, including H.
I find the 19 super wearable and less 'loud' than a CF. While I find the CF more visually appealing, I don't find it nearly as practical as my 19. Thus, my eternal dilemma between visual asthetic and ease of use and practically. Hence, I need all the bags

I don’t see the 22 as a particularly enduring style, but I know people love it. If I could have found one with leather that didn’t feel “plasticky” I might have one by now.
Who knows how the 19 will endure, but I love my one and only small black and find it incredibly easy to use and comfortable to carry.
