wrinkle in leather?

[sail_away]

over the weekend, i've noticed that my hillier hobo has some kind of deep wrinkle in the leather :/

are wrinkles like this natural or can i prevent them in the future?

i know this question is so "high-maintenance" of me to ask, but then again, aren't we all? haha

Do you have a picture? Hilliers have such pebbled leather, I suppose it wouldn't be a stretch for them to develop larger wrinkles over time. Since you use it regularly, though, I'm not sure how that might happen....

I think you should post pics.

Yeah I think a pic will help. I do have a similarly shaped non MbMJ bag (a Hayden Harnett Nico) that has a similar bottom half. I store this one (along with my HH Havana hobo) flat with no stuffing to avoid wrinkles. I learned this at the HH forum. The leather is pretty different though from the Hillier. Just a suggestion.

if you can post a pic, we can take a look at it was it always there or it has developed over time?

Oh I see what your talking about!

Does it bother you? If you got it at a department store, you can probably return it. But like I said, it's probably just a natural seam caused by the pebbled nature of the leather.

The more I look at it the less of a deal it is to me. Leather's never perfect. Thanks for your help
