Hi guys! Is anybody is willing to give me a comparison between the Chester canteen 9901 and the mini one 9982? I have the regular one, wondering how big a size difference between the two. Thanks!

I believe mine is more of a medium sized style, but I can take a photo tomorrow to show you.Whateve says there are many style numbers with variations on the style...different stitching and straps so any idea of what the size looks against a Court is going to be helpful. I see some on maniquins but Im chubby so when I wear it it looks really small. So Im hoping to find a larger one.
Oh fabulous!...that is perfect...so if its the medium I need to look for the larger size. That helps me so much. Now I have to look up to find the style numbers for the larger one. Hopefully there is a larger one.@Narnanz here they are to compare. I think my Soho baguette is a medium, its actually pretty similar in size to the Court. I always thought it was smaller. My Court has a strap, but I got lazy, lol. I'm 5'8" size 8 for reference.

I thought I needed a small plaza but fell in love with this large red one and got it. Dunked and conditioned it. Just to give you an idea of my preference my favorite size bag is the Willis. Not too big, not too small, and can be crossbody or carried with top handle. The large plaza looks rather ladylike. I was pleasantly surprised that it was not a huge and clunky bag. It is closer in size to a Willis than I expected.ill take a shot next to a Willis for comparison.Yes that is very helpful in fact. Maybe if I found it in a dark color it would not seem too big yet give me the roominess I need. Gorgeous Court, by the way.

Thanks for sharing this post with me!I have a big plaza but is in search for a small one. I have never carried any of my Willises. I find them too big for my 5’1 self. I love my Ramblers though.
@jwteah Here is the new thread I told you about. Enjoy!
I agree, it seems to be a mix of femininity and sophistication.I thought I needed a small plaza but fell in love with this large red one and got it. Dunked and conditioned it.

Yes, I’ve heard that about shorter ladies. I’m 5’10” so perfect for me! That’s why I own 33 Willis bags and counting!I have a big plaza but is in search for a small one. I have never carried any of my Willises. I find them too big for my 5’1 self. I love my Ramblers though.

Some colors have both nickel and brass hardware so I have both. I also found a brand-new currant with nickel when I already owned one. Decided to switch out the hardware on the preowned one from nickel to brass so it will better coordinate with my Mulberry satchel. Normally I carry two bags, purse and carryall type bag, to the office and I like the hardware to match. Here’s a photo of my Willis collection I took a couple months ago. Have since acquired several more plus a custom trust color. Coach made Willis in many more colors and hardware combinations than you think! I also own four of the newer version not pictured here in oxblood, green, saddle, and black.33? I didn’t know there was that many colors. Or you have multiples of the same color?
Thanks! Color was a bit faded when I first got it so dunking, conditioning, and buffing really made the leather glow. I didn’t have to do anything else to it.This is really beautiful! I love the Plaza, it's so classy.
