Will u ever buy another A Wang Rocco handbag if u could?

I bought mine last April this year and i havent really used it much since ive seen cases of the leather looking like it gotten peeled.And just one day i saw mine wit the same issue,now i dont even wanna take it out coz im afraid it will get worst.

For 950 Australia $, is it really that worth it?am i really paying for a leather handbag or faux?

I love the design but for that amount of money, think ill just go canvas to be safe.

Anyone having trouble wit their Rocco's?

Enlighten me pls.

Frankly for me - they're only worth getting on sale because of the leather problems. I think I'd be really upset about paying full price only to have issues with the piping, etc.

I have been lucky and haven't had a problem with mine. My issue is how heavy they are. I haven't paid retail and probably wouldn't for any AW bags.

Now the AW clothing I own has all had to be taken to the tailor to have seams resewn. Drives me nuts but I am still a fan of the designs.

Treat this with edge kote before it gets worse.

Before applying, first use a leather conditioner to moisturize. I use Bricks leather conditioner. I use it on my exotic leather too.

I use black shoe polish/cream to cover these small rub spots. It keeps it from getting worse.

All bags have their issues. Balenciaga bags (twice the price) corners and leather rub like this too.

I don't have any edge problems or with the leather peeling, BUT the small leather loop that has the D-ring for the long strap tore-off twice in six months! There is no way i'm buying another AW bag. I love my Rocco but i'd rather pay slightly more and buy a Prada or Miu Miu, never had a problem with those...
