The WoC - Wallet on Chain thread

[ka3na20]

thanks so much for your input ! I do carry quite light, I was planning to make use of the card slots, and then I just carry mini hand sanitizer, keys, lip gloss and my asthma inhaler and a sage mint roller pen ! Do you think that’ll be doable? ☺

I don’t have a woc pearl crush but I do have a classic woc, I am not sure if they have the exact same capacity or measurements, but I pretty much carry a lot more than what you mentioned in my woc. Here is a photo for you reference that contains

- phone
- lipstick
- key cles which holds my keys, coins, credit cards
- hand sanitizer

It can fit a lot more if I dont use the key cles. Hope this helps.

Thank you so much!! This definitely helps me to see how much it can hold! It does hold quite a bit more than I was expecting seeing your photos! ☺️

Here are some pics of the WOC with the inhaler. The first one has the inhaler, lip gloss, hand sanitizer, a Tylenol slim pack. I am sure a smaller phone will fit in the front pocket. The second one is with a 6-key holder and my inhaler. I couldn’t fit my phone with the 6-key and inhaler.
I hope this helps. The turn lock will certainly fit more than the regular WOC.

Oh you can definitely fit a key fob in the first pic as well.

I also really liked this YouTube video on comparison between Chanel WOC and mini:

Thank you for these photos! I appreciate it! I was actually quite concerned if the inhaler would fit, but glad to see it does !!

Ummm I just noticed this. Is this normal for a brand new WOC? The creasing goes away as soon as I close the flap. TIA!

Where did you get the bag insert if you don’t mind me asking? It looks like it expands the bag and gives it more room. I currently have the navy WOC in the classic with silver hardware. I forgot how long ago I got it, but I know it’s been about 3-4 years. I would love to purchase a bag insert to protect the inside and also allow it to be more spacious. Thanks in advance!

Samorga. I also posted it together with the base shaper that I got on page 640 and 642. The insert doesn't really allow it to be more spacious actually, the base shaper does the wonder. I just bought the thinnest insert to protect the lining.

I follow them on Instagram, but never purchase anything from them. Thank you so much! I will make sure to purchase this. Thanks for the information

HI!!! I finally got mine after ordering it over the phone. The first thing that jumped out at me was that there were patches of quilts that were quite flat.... mainly the bottom corners of the top flap, and on the back - the bottom corners (with the right corner being nearly flat). Are yours like that?

Second thing that I found weird was the smell. My other caviars had a leather smell... but this WOC smells like perfume. REALLY hoping it wasn't a return that sat in someone's home or worse, was used...

Mine looks the same as earthygirl’s! The grains look bigger to me.
Hi earthygirl, was there any plastic covering on the round piece of magnetic metal underneath the cc logo in the top inner flap? Mine came without but the magnetic closure on the bottom of the bag did…so strange… thankyou!

So excited to get my WOC! The grains are also bigger on mine. What do you all think of the leather quality? It has a sheen on it. I also see some bunching on the side (left corner) from too close stitching. I posted about it on the Quality thread. Anyways, I am not too bothered because they are hardly visible. This was so hard to get! Seemed to one of the most popular Chanel bag.

Yeah, this seems normal cuz the leather needs to 'give' when you open and close.

Can you share pics?

Thank you! Yes I searched for this topic on PF and found a few responses that this is very normal

Hard to capture how flat the corner quilts are, but overall some areas of the bag are noticeably puffier than others.
Is yours like that?

And...the strong perfume scent is definitely annoying. Assuming no one else got a non-leather smelling WOC recently?

Did your bag come with the wrapping on the handles?
