Reissue or Classic Flap? Or Hybrid?

[reydrosus]

I'm looking to buy my first Chanel and want to get a flap bag, but don't know which one. Should I get a Reissue, Classic Flap, or Hybrid? Black, Metallic Black, or White???

Classic Flap or Reissue, and in regards of color: black is always a great staple in everyone collection.

While I love reissues, I'm a strong believer that your first should always be that classic caviar black flap!

Go for the hybrid....before they're all gone!

Thanks for your responses!

I forgot to also ask what size? Jumbo or Med/Large?

Get a classic flap as your first bag. The clasp is significantly easier to close than the reissue.

Do you think it's hard to find the medium hybrids now? I keep wanting to get a black and white medium, but all I hear about are the jumbo sizes.

ITA! They're awesome! And so soft...

You should go to the boutique and try out different styles (classic flap in med/large, classic flap in jumbo, reissue of various sizes, and hybrids) and see what you are comfortable with.

i agree it should be a flap...
i also agree you should go see them IRL...
nothing like seeing/touching/trying on...
good luck!
