Default raggedy coin purse?

Okay, so my CP isn't exactly "raggedy" yet, but I feel like it's heading in that direction. I got the sky blue GSH coin purse and been using almost everyday. Sometimes as a wallet, sometimes a mini make up bag, or even a clutch when I'm just heading out for errands. It's totally thinning out and feel super-broken it. But it just feels so much more fragile then when breaking in a bag...how long can a CP live like this?

i don't know...its my first CP so I don't know how it goes haha. i love a broken-in bag, but a broken in CP feels so..thin..and fragile. and it gets tossed around inside a bag rubbing on other items in my bag...nothing sharp tho. Am I being weird?

Hmm I have a sky blue sgh coin purse too and she feels silky rather than fragile and thin. Perhaps the sgh weight makes the leather feel more fragile (in relation to the weight of the sgh)? I don't suppose it has tears in it, scuffs etc. so I guess it's just getting silkier?
