after so long looking for a reasonably prices rocco in acid, I get it on sale but:
the color is lighter than expected
the leather is not pebbled all over, it's soft in some places
it didnt come with a dustbag (this is a turnoff)

Return it if you don't love it.

Do any of you guys have any of the Nubuck bags? How do they look irl and do they show wear easily?

 

[Piarpreet]

can you exchange it?

No. Its sold out. Everywhere lol. Im going to return it for sure now. Its 650 bucks... If i dont love it or think the craftmanship is worth the money i shouldnt have it in my room love the color though. But the uneven leather kills me...

I got the navy rocco too! Now wondering if I'll have to baby it too much.
Already have the rocco in vine and a diego in iridescent and the leather on those feel awesome!

I have an older Rocco from 2011 and although I didn't baby it , i wish i hd. It is beat up which is upsetting because I do have lots of other bags that I rotate so I didn't use it everyday. That being said, I think the newer bags are more resistant. does anyone know what I could do to refurbish worn handles and leather on a Rocco?

Isn't it great? I didn't have high expectations because I have never handled a Nubuck bag but when I took it out of the box I was super excited. It's very rich looking and I love the texture.
