Would love to hear from bandouliere and handheld users. Which do you like better and why? I’ve owned both and sold my 25b and bought the handheld speedy 25 instead. I think I liked the other better but not in a position to do anything about it right now. Although there’s something to be said for the “original”. Thoughts? Thanks!
I have the classic monogram in 30, which was my first high end bag. Didn’t take me long to figure out Im not a handheld girl so I got the speedyb25 in DE. I’ve used that one a lot, but I feel my classic 30 is better quality that the speedyb25. The zipper is smooth on the classic and the speedyb style has mismatched hardware that has constantly tarnished from the beginning. My poor speedyb has cracked canvas, which I understand to be more likely with the bandolier version.

I’m a crossbody gal and, at these prices, I need versatility. 25B all the way. The few times I carry on the crook, I like the way it looks with the strap draped over.
SAME! I’m a crossbody or crook girl but I love having the option to go with whatever the moment calls for. While doing hard core shopping in store, I want crossbody. While strolling, I like crook. Speedy B all the way

I have 25b and 30b and 30 regular. I go to the crossbody alot more. It's just easier to use.

ARGH! i knew i should have kept the 25b...now i have a never used 25 that i'm going to have to sell...UGHH!
 
I was wondering if this is normal for the Speedy B strap?

I ordered the 25 right before the increase. The first one was clearly a return. Hardware had deep, dark scratches it, as well as the lock. The dust bag had stains on it. I sent it back and this was the replacement. I didn’t get a chance to look at how the strap is on the first one since the hardware was an immediate no. Is this how the speedy b straps are normally?

one handle is slightly wrinkled and the d-ring ever so slightly scratched considering if I should even make the effort to exchange again. E3892A27-2E2B-4C20-8E9D-8D645CBB5CF3.jpeg
