So after my truffe/camel dilemma, a big THANKS again for all who patiently helped me to make my mind up, I went to search for the perfect camel day but without result (I didn't want to order the day outside of europe because of the pricediffrence).
But LVR had camelcitys and since I had a storecredit there...I went for it.
i was a little scared since my last order there ended with a return since the leather on what I has ordered was really not nice, you know that plasticloock that some of the sprinbags have...
so this time I was incredibly precise so this is what I asked for:
very, nice smooth thick leather, butterlike, a little veiny/marbled but only a little to give it the special caracter, but not dry or distressed and with only a little shine
I will try to post a pic to let you judge for yourselves.
First I was very surprised :?: by the color the camel 06 fall I had seen IRL (a work) was much lighter and I think fiatfux pics were as well.
I think I like it but need to overcome my surprise since I was expecting a lighter bag.
The leather: soso, it's not veiny more matte than in the pics because of the flash, it's thick but it's neither smouchy nor soft but rather distressed and dry.
I hope this makes sens.
The SA told me I would receive this:
I personally went to the warehouse to choose the least veiny one that was smooth like butter. I know you will LOVE IT!
So I like it but I don't love it and it's really not buttery. Now I know conditioning can do wonders but my RV was so wonderful not needing any of that.
Ohh I will keep it since my first return cost me nearly 50 euros shipping out of my pocket.
I must add that LVR customerservice is overall very good, maybe a little slow to reply mails but very quick to ship, refund etc.
Maybe there was no softer bag...
Anyway
