The Chanel grand shopping tote, also called the GST, is equally famous as the Chanel classic flap bag. Its fame starts in the United States, going all the way to Europe, Africa to China and Japan. This bag represents the brand Chanel and is considered one of the hottest bags in fashion, the ‘it’ of the ‘it’ bags. But that doesn’t surprise me; everything that you need in a tote, the GST has it and so much more. The durable caviar leather, large enough to pack your modern essentials and even your summer jacket, stylish enough to make your girlfriends jealous and durable enough to love it forever.
There are several choices you need to make when it comes to the GST: the color, the hardware and the leather. The GST is available in gold hardware as well as silver hardware. And there are several colors to choose; of course the classic black, quilted red, beige, chalk white, blue, gold, yellow, red and even gray. But it doesn’t mean that you can just enter the Chanel boutique and go home with whatever style you want. These bags are limited and your favorite choice might not be available in stock.
Then you have the leather, it’s available in metallic, patent, lambskin and caviar. The most famous choice is the GST in black and lambskin/caviar. But that’s no surprise, it’s the same choice you would make picking your first Chanel classic flap bag.
Since 2010, Chanel has reissued the GST (just a couple of modifications to make it better). There’s a new strap with key hook inside; you can use it to attach anything you like, keys, wallet or even your iPad. The interior has changed too; Chanel has used thicker lining comparable to the Ottoman lining. Some people claim that the older lining was much better, more durable and less easy to abuse. The new lining, Satin seems to be much more difficult to maintain.

If you have a hard time of gather money to buy your first Chanel classic flap bag, your dream bag, then consider the GST. It’s as useful as the classic flap and much bigger. The price is much lower too, which means you get a great value for money. But you really want to stick with the classic flap or the reissue 2.55, Chanel PST, Chanel GST and even to the Cerf tote to make sure you have a Chanel classic in your wardrobe.

hi, may I know the size detail for small PST and medium PST? thanks
Hi Chrissie, there is no small PST,
there is normal size PST and XL PST.
Normal size PST: 10″ x 9.5″ x 3.5″
PST XL: is approximately 30cm (W) x 30cm (H) x 10cm (D)
How much is it in milan for the normal PST? And is it available there?
Hi Chrissie, PST normal size in Milan: €1,390 (price increase since they re-release it a month ago), but yes it’s available, but depends on the day you enter the boutique and the availability in stock.
Okayy.thanks 🙂
And how much for PST XL in Milan?
Hi Chrissie, the PST XL cost: €1,790. Are you getting the XL? It’s a rare bag, not sure if they have in stock.
Yes.i’m thinking of getting PST but dont know which size suits me 🙁
We usually hear from people that they buy the normal PST, not the XL, unless they need to carry a lot of items like baby stuff. The difference is only that the XL is longer. But if you are thinking about the PST XL, why not consider the GST? A lot of people choose GST because it’s a classic.
So PST is not a classic ? Because i like the PST shape more than GST
Hi Chrissie, the PST is a classic, it’s available in all season. The GST is much wider, but it has more space. I would recommend just buy the bag you love, if you like the PST shape more, then I would go for the PST. They are both famous. Are you from Europe?
Alright.i think i’ll go for PST normal size 😀 thanks alot for your guidance
No,im not from europe.but i’ll ask my friend to help me buy from europe 🙂
Oke Chrissie, I am crossing my fingers, keep us informed =)
Is it cheaper to buy GST in Vegas than Singapore? As I be going to Vegas soon. Thanks
