Please help me to decide between the DE Clapton Backpack or DE Croisette

[QNX1992]

Between the DE Clapton backpack in Scarlet color (I believe this color combination only released in Asia) and the DE Croisette, which one do you think looks better and more practical?

I like to use it as an everyday bag.

I currently own couple Chanel Classic Flaps that I use for evenings and dressy occasions.
I have these LV bags that I use everyday as well.
- Empreinte Noir MPA
- Empreinte Scarlet Felicie
- Monogram Pochette Métis
- Monogram Noir Odeon MM
- Damier Ebene Speedy B25

Thank you.

Croisette is similar to speedy de 25b. Beautiful pop of red on Clapton! In my opinion!

the DE Clapton backpack in Scarlet color is so pretty! I would go for that.

I have both, I would pick the Croisette. The croisette is very small, more of mini bag, but the clapton is fussy -- it has too many straps, it sits quite low down, even on a shorter length, and it doesn't look good carried by hand. Of course it holds much more. The corners also get worn quite fast because they have very sharp edges. I bought my Clapton (in the red) from resale in the US -- I didn't realize it was perhaps just an Asia release. Anyway, the croisette also holds value-- I've received quotes on my croisette and they have always been quite high and the clapton retains very little value, I was recently quoted 900 for it from Yoogis and the croisette nearer to 1200. They are still making the croisette which also speaks to continued popularity I think. Just points to consider.

In all honesty you should get the bag that really appeals to you! And the bag that will serve your purpose! Shop for you!

I have both too, and I prefer the Clapton because it can hold more when you need it and you can wear it many ways, shoulder and crossbody the pop of colour is nice as well!

Clapton is my most used LV since I purchased it when it was released. Good size and multiple ways to wear it.
I should add, I always wear it as a backpack.

Thanks for your feedback and gkad to hear you like the Clapton backpack. I’m actually leaning toward the Clapton backpack a little more because of the color combo.

Go for the backpack! I think it's gorgeous and I love the pop of red, too. It's very unique and the color adds a nice contrast to the DE print.

Yah, that color way is gorgeous. I would of loved that one had it been available. I have the beige cream version. Really is a great and practical bag. I know it can be tough deciding. GLD

I like my Clapton as a crossbody. It holds a decent amount. I keep the extra strap in the small pocket for a speedy change back into the backpack. I vote Clapton!

I have both bags and love both equally. They are very diff bags with diff vibes. The backpack is casual and holds more. The croisette holds less and it can be worn casually/formal occasion.

The Croisette. Always.

I have almost the same LV bag collection as you:
- Empreinte Scarlet Felicie
- Monogram Pochette Métis
- DE Noir Odeon MM
- Plus a few others
I have the Clapton backpack in the creme and love it. I wear it as a crossbody which looks a little dressier but have switched it up as a backpack for a more casual look. I love the red and DE combination. Good luck deciding!
