Default Beach White crunch leather?
Does anyone have experience with the Beach White crunch leather? I really really want the Boogie Bucket in Beach White as my first Tano...but I hate carrying a dirty bag (looks so yucky!!). If you have it from Spr/Summer '08 let me know how yours has held up!

Vote or !

Its far more delicate that any other crunch leather color. You definitely cant bang a beach colored bag around every day without consequences. I would recommend that you take the same care as you would with any other light colored leather bag- spray when new, clean as needed , alternate often with other bags and just baby it in general if you want it to stay looking nice.

I'll take one of my beach sexbomb in a bit. She still looks good just a little of the undercolor coming through on the corners. I used her almost all of last summer and several times through the fall and winter as well, the color is great year round.

I love the beach Boogie but it will drive me crazy if it ever got dirty. I'd probably look at her more than wear her. It is very pretty though!

In person beach is one of the prettiest Tano colors. I don't have one but I have a pearl bag that I'll wear sometime soon.

If I had a white bag, it would never look as good as yours after a year!!

I used to have a white Coach hamptons bag that would need to be cleaned everytime I used it. And it eventually TURNED YELLOW. I hate that bag so much.

White bags are sooo pretty...takes special ladies to carry them. I am a klutz, I destroyed mine.

^^ It probably turned yellow from the cleaners rather than from use!

It was that hamptons bag made of material...we only used soap and water. And the handle that was leather turned yellow and i never treated the handle.

I have a similar bag in black and I love it. I am not sure what happened.

I have a beach petit larceny, which I used a lot last summer and it still looks like new. The beach is really pretty -
