Default How are you MONEY wallets wearing people?

Just wondering since things tend to get bumped around in my bag. So Balenciaga wallet owners (that have been using them for a while). How are they wearing?

My Cinnamon Money.. is wearing very nicely. I use pro-treatment on there from time to time when needed... and so far.. there are no scuffs on the buckles and when I do accidentally scratch it w/ a finger nail.. a little spit * rubbin' does the trick~! ...

^^I bet cinnamon is beautiful! I have a cinnamon coinpurse that I love!! My (unused) Money wallet is black. I kind of wish I got a more interesting color. *sigh*

I thought about getting a more "interesting" color too.. although I've noticed.. its really hard keeping a lighter wallet clean.

Maybe a Marine or purpley one this fall?

the leather on my mogano (or cafe, not sure!) is super fine. but the hardware is not the best. the rivets have all been rubbed down quite a bit! i'm getting a GH one maybe later this year and i'm curious how that will hold up!

I love my black with GH small wallet and I also have a RH Sienna small wallet. I love them both and they hold up perfect. Wouldn't want any other wallet.

I've been wondering this too! I just got one and haven't used it yet...

Does anyone get concerned about throwing their keys in their bags alongside their wallets? I'm worried about the scratches and wondering if I should get some kind of keyholder...

Is the money the big zip around one? I have in black and have been using for about 4 months. Alas, the zipper is getting weird - getting hard to zip around one of the corners without some effort.. Wonder if I could send back to BAL for repair ?? Except for the zipper prob, love the wallet - it's holding up well.

I ended up with another money wallet - an aqua and I LOVE IT! It's such an easy wallet to use, I'm really enjoying it and it looks fab!

No, the zip around one is actually called the Compagnon.

I have had and used the money in black since January and it's held up fine. The leather is softening with use but the condition is still excellent :)
I love it more and more each time I have to reach in and touch it!
