That's good to know. Like most folks, I avoid suede although it always looks and feels scrumptious!
I have the red nubuck 33 en route to me but it takes longer because I'm in Canada. After I ordered, I tried cancelling but I will decide when I see this in person. Now that it's appeared in O magazine - geez!
Does anybody know if it's already sold out? When I ordered last week, JAX had 22, then 20. Another TPF member in the US ordered in the evening and said JAX was down to 12. That's why I ordered - I was pretty sure the red nubuck would sell out.
The size of the Rhyder 33 is not an issue for me - I'd just carry it like a tote. (I had the colorblock Workwear Rhyder 33 for less than 24 hours which I bought with 25% off and I returned her but it wasn't due to size or weight issue). One reason why I took the plunge in the first place was to get a hold of that elusive full feather fob!!!! Whatever - I have no hope of receiving a feather fob with the red nubuck
