I cheated.... and I might not be going back!

the draw.... well...
for the koobas, it's the soft, smushy leather, the smell, the shape... In the case of my marcelle, I love the lacing and the bo-ho quality it has. :heart:

As for the Botkier... I love the bombay line. The trigger, and the sasha just don't do it for me... but the Bombay bags are so rock n roll... all the studs, the large rings, the studded tassle.... :yes:

I also like the fact that I don't see these bags at all where I live... here it's a lot of coach sig and (mostly) fake LV, so it's nice to have something unique!
 
The draw for me for Koobas is the vastness of styles that I love and would carry. No other bag line (that I can afford) can do that for me.

I like the belts, straps, whipstitching, buckles and such. And the leather is normally thick and substantial. Most, like my Frankie, Maria, and Braedon, are built like a Mack truck so will stand my dragging it around for years.

And I adore the leather bomber jacket type of leather they use on some.
