Thank you!I completely agree. I loved this bag when I saw it in person. They were flying off the shelves in nyc yesterday as well. I love that it’s caviar leather too. Makes it so much more durable. Congrats on your bag
Here are photos of the small-medium-large sizes from a personal shopper on Instagram 
The Chanel boutiques I called and went to today (in the USA) did not have them in black, and I was told the only colors made were white, pink, beige, blue and I think red (I could be wrong about red). I’m unsure these black Urban Companions are real. Hopefully another TPF’er will know. Perhaps they are in Asia or Europe in black.
I was told the same thing. I even called the 800 number. I’d buy it if I found black.
Yes I actually heard that as well on an FB group. I believe this personal shopper is Dubai/Europe based though (not sure which exactly) and the photo was taken in the boutique (as seen from the background) so im pretty sure theyre real. I havent inquired from her though so i wouldnt know the exact details on which boutique it was.
Love it as I first thought it reminded me of the mini square unfortunately we only have Navy for now in Singapore... have been on the hunt for a pink bag 
Also not too sure since seasonal bags have a fabric lining

Doesn't impress as a luxury bag, which after all, is part of allure of Chanel... strictly casual throw-around vibe... there’s an LV for that ... my mere opinion..
My SA sent me photos in black and pink! I love the one in black and going to try in boutique! This bag looks very functional for daily wear. I will take more pics to share later
cocoloversisi - Great pics. Are those the mini and small? Which one did you like more? I tried on two yesterday but didn't actually check which sizes they were.
Yes, I call it small and medium... and that's the smallest size. I got the small one finally. Originally I aim for the medium one when I see this style in IG, and text my SA this morning. she told me black colour juz arrived yesterday and launch today!!! So My SA kept for me and I went to the boutique to try it, but I find that small one looks much better on me both in crossbody and double chain! And in terms of proportion of the bag, I feel small one looks better than medium one, but of coz small one can juz fit similar to a rectangular mini 20cm while the medium can fits a bit more~ hope it helps u to choose your size! I will do a reveal of this bag later after I unboxed it! [emoji8]
The chain doubled looks really nice on you. Congrats on ur new bag. Are u happy with the length of the chain cross body?
this bag looks soooo much better on than in standalone pics. can you let us know how much the small size can actually fit (can it fit more than a mini because of the extra compartments)? as someone said, it is reminiscent of the LV pochette metis and that bag fits a lot. i'm wondering how this one compares. also, did you get it from a boutique in the USA? it would help to clarify what colors are available.
thanks for sharing the pics. super helpful!
