Pre-Loved Chanel 2.55 Reissue
The original 1955 flap, purist and chain-strapped.
The 2.55 Reissue is Chanel's faithful re-edition of Coco Chanel's original February 1955 flap, reintroduced by Karl Lagerfeld in 2005. It keeps the purist details the Classic Flap later updated: the rectangular Mademoiselle chain-only strap and the Mademoiselle turn-lock rather than the CC clasp. It is the connoisseur's Chanel flap.

Buying a pre-owned Chanel 2.55 Reissue — FAQs
What is the difference between the 2.55 Reissue and the Classic Flap?
The Reissue keeps Coco Chanel's original details, the rectangular Mademoiselle lock and an all-metal chain, while the Classic Flap uses the CC turn-lock and a leather-woven-through chain introduced by Lagerfeld.
What do the numbers like 226 and 227 mean?
They denote the size of the Reissue, with 225 being a smaller medium, 226 a medium and 227 a large; the 226 is the most popular everyday size.
Which lock should a purist choose?
The Mademoiselle turn-lock is the historically correct choice for the 2.55, as the CC lock belongs to the later Classic Flap lineage.
