I have a City (black) which I use everyday and it still looks new! Of course I do not put it on the floor or do anything to cause scuffs or wear to the bottom or corners! I never figured out how anyone wore the leather through on the corners. You would have to be rough! If you just lay it down and not drag it! Well I just have never understood the corners wearing away. I take care of my bag with LMB and have high hopes it will not wear with proper care!
