I like Damier Canvas, but I don't care for Damier Infini. I just don't find this leather treatment attractive. I prefer Épi or Taurillon. I also don't love Taïga (although I have a couple of pieces). It's good that LV has so many options to chose from!

I am not sure that I understand your question @prepster. There is textile (fabric) and microfiber/microsuede linings. Then on a few speciality bags there are other alternative linings (especially on runway bags like Tobago, etc).
Also, in many LV bags, the lining is not attached to the bottom of the bag so you can take it out to wash it.
Thanks for the reply! It's a little confusing because for awhile LV referred to "textile" lining as lining that was not woven fabric but some other man-made material. (Lol, even though fabric is a textile.) If a lining was canvas as in my Montsouris and Speedy, or Alcantara as in my SC bag, the written descriptions would say "Canvas" or "Alcantara" or sometimes just "Fabric." The lining on my pencil case, which they referred to as "textile" was (supposedly) wipeable/washable, felt sort of vinyl-esque and looked like the wipeable beige lining on the hard Toiletry cases. The canvas and Alcantara wore very well, but I wouldn't buy the mystery washable textile again. When I read "Textile Lining" on the website I always wonder just exactly what kind of textile they are referring to.
Thanks for giving your opinion. As you write, it's good that LV has so many options.
As you kindly answered my question, I will reciprocate.
I think Damier Infini is an inspired leather (nicer than empreinte) - making a good alternative to canvas;
More special than Taïga, although walking downstairs at NBS last Friday I did think how good a Taïga messenger on display looked.
i have transferred my allegiance from the Taïga of my well-used Viktor to DI or Epi that I have recently come to appreciate.
If it's a stand-alone colab then I don't know when they are dropping it but if it's part of Spring 2018 collection then we are not seeing it until the show in late June.
Thanks I thought so too
Guess have to wait and see
