I have a Kelly that is peau porc. It is a durable leather, very rigid, holds its shape, scratch resistant because of the light texture, and ages well. They used to make the saddles of porc because of its durability. But because it's such a hard leather, it is also hard to break in. Hermes now uses a calfskin embossed to look like peau porc.
About toile - how durable (stain resistant) is this?
've seen some courchevel vintage bags that looked awful - I assume this is because the owner was very careless.
I believe togo and clemence have been around since the 80's.Anybody know how old Togo is?
