Unhappy Washed lambskin: how well does it hold up?

I saw the new ultimate soft and it's gorgeous! But it's made of lambskin (washed I think) so I'm not sure how well it would hold up? I am thinking about getting the red one, but don't know if the leather would pick up dirt easily, etc. It's very soft and almost suede-like to the touch. What do you girls think?

From what I have read it is more durable than you would think. If you do a search on the “Ultimate Soft” in this forum you will find a lot of past threads about this bag. :)

not really my style, but they do feel like heaven. i would imagine they hold up like most other luxury brand distressed bags...
