I don't know for sure but I think they are. Lotion is worse though.

I am sure they are. Fortunately, I am someone whose palms never sweat, but I can tell you, I have a GF whose palms are always sweaty and her Speedy's handles are scary.

Probably a killer. Wipes can help.

I have sweaty palms, too and yes, dear, they are absolute death for vachetta. It turns handles noticeably darker & faster than the rest of the leather (and not that nice natural patina that comes with natural aging, either). I solved my problem by sewing cloth protectors that are the same color of my speedy handles. I can grip them comfortably when it's hot & no yuckiness develops.

i have naturally oily skin so i just try not to really hold my bag by the handles with my hands if i don't have to. i'll put it in the crook of my elbow or something and it won't be so bad. couple of my bags have darker patina than i'd like but i'm being super careful with my azur as i am sure i will hate it with dark patina.
