Can we talk about Courcheval vs Ardennes please?

Ardennes is an embossed leather as well.

Courchevel was introduced long before Ardennes was, and it was produced untill the early 2K just before H released Veau grain lisse ( a shiny version ) and then Epsom in 2003. It's probably the best seller leather along with Box, before TOGO era....

On the long run :
Both can lose color to corners and both can be very hard to touch up (unless dark colors)
Colorwise, I think Courchevel looks better in Gold, in Green, in Yellow, Bleu France, even Bleu jean if you can find one that would be a collector !
While Ardennes looks fabulous in Black, Rouge Vif, Vert, Bleu Saphir ( the old one from the 80's)

What an incredibly insightful post!!! TY!!! I never would've guess Ardennnes is an embossed leather!!!!

@S'Mom @Israeli_Flava Did the spa help with the dryness of the Ardennes leather?

I sold mine loooong ago. Never sent to spa. Too plastic feeling IMHO... I just don't enjoy that leather at all. =(
