How's your Carmino doing?

[blugenie]

I'm really tempted by the Carmino color I saw this question asked in another thread but it may have been too early for Carmino owners to weigh in....

Now that a few of you have carmino, how is it holding up? Any color fade where it rubs or color transfer? Do you feel it's a high maintenance color? Any other advice?

TIA

So far, I have used my carmino mini tote on weekends or days off, and use it more handheld. I have not seen any fading or scuffs, nor have I seen any darkening of the handles from oils in my skin. I haven't figured out if my bag is nappa or nappa umbria, but it seems to take water drops pretty well, no stains.
