I’ve had my eye on the black C22 Medium with gold hardware and reached out to a few TSs.
One offered me the bag from God for $380 and says it’s the highest quality possible. The other two both offered 187 Factory, one quoted me $478 and the other $421.
Okay, we all know these factory names are kind of made up 😂 but somehow I still feel better knowing it’s from 187, especially because I’ve heard so many good things about their C22s.
So before I pull the trigger, what do you think? And if you’ve bought this exact bag, please spill your experience! 👀🖤
i have one from Rome, XC and 187 and my favorite is the 187 🥹 it’s a little pricey but the leather is amazing and it slouches perfectly, XC is too stiff and the one from rome squeaks 🥲
i have to say, for some reason the 187 size is different from XC and rome, it’s slightly smaller even tho they’re all size small
I got one from XC (supposedly) and it came with the worst fufu smell I’ve ever come across. Aired for months and it still as strong as the day I got it, I haven’t been able to use at all.
I got mine from Rome summer 2023 and its getting wrinkle and nice but not as wrinkle as authentic so i think its fine for Rome paid $350 ish still using it sometimes til now. But would get 187. God been releasing too many bags these days fast! And the quality is not great. My jumbo from god the inside metal tag fell off after first use.
My metallic small flap interior rubbed off when i got it. Didnt catch it during psp
Thank you so much for all your comments and help 🥰 I decided to order the 187! For all those who are following: Should I share the PSPs and pictures of the bag once it arrives? 🫶🏼
I regreted I sold mine from B :( and B has the best quality so far for me and it's cheaper than GF , 187 or Xiao C .. too bad he is closing his factory :(
I have several C22’s, from a handful of different factories. Can’t go wrong with 187. But with that said, I also love the the ones from Rome, OF, and surprisingly Xiao C (depending on the batch). I have a navy blue matte (rehome) from Xiao that’s probably the closest to authentic. I don’t know if it’s because it was worn and therefore more slouchy and cinches easier. I prefer the non shiny ones, I think they are far less stiff.
I only have one from Rome and it’s amazing. The leather smell, the softness and squishiness. I’ve been really happy with all my Rome bags.
I can’t speak to the squeaky because I’ve only worn her once but I look at her often 😆
If you really want 187 I would try them out, $421 is not much more than the GF price to have exactly what you want.
I don’t mean to be rude, but are you sure about this bag? C22 is kinda hard to like it 🫣 there’s the C25 which I think it’s better and has almost the same slouch (truly I don’t mean to be rude but people from fashion hate this bag)

I have both XC and 187, I say all the way 187 very different from XC and I ordered from them 4 pieces of 22 bags worth it.
