I have a pebbled leather chelsea bag (not sure of the style) from 2005 and it is by far the easiest/worry-free bag I have. Now I have a black one with tan accents, but it's held up amazingly well - no scratches, I can take it out in any weather and it's fine and it looks as good now as it did when I first got it. I love the tote you're looking at and think it will hold up great!
