I have my Alexa made in Turkey and the quality of the hardware is really bad. The gold tone just get scratched and peeled off.
Does anyone has the same problem?
Think it ultimately boils down to the actual craftsperson (!) who stitches it - meaning that whether it's made in Turkey, China etc. is only a guide - one of my older Roxy's is beautifully stitched and finished (Turkey), and my new NVT Choc (Turkey) really isn't up to the same overall standard!.....Hi there ive prev had the daria satchel and the med+ large daria hobo all made in Turkey. I personally have had no problems whatsoever. Ive sold them now though. I think it is the luck of the draw as bag*mad*bags states.

Hello
I am about to embark on my first purchase.....I have decided that the Daria hobo in medium suits my needs....
I am trying to decide between last years Daria Hobo medium Midnight Suede croc in the sale....
or the new A/W 2012 Daria hobo medium in petrol blue!!! How does the coloured leather wear - will it be better wearing then the suede...? does anyone have a suede Daria that hasn't worn well...? Thought the suede was quite unusual but then love the colour of the petrol but then suppose the petrol colour is seasonal and will be out next year...?
Oooooh decisions....
Any thoughts on the 2 would be great.... xx
Both are lovely. I don't have any experience of either. But my instincts tell me the suede wouldn't wear so well, but it would depend how you were going to use it. Is it an everyday bag? Then I would go with the leather. The petrol colour looks quite nice and different coloured hardware on it too.
Please show reveal pics of your new purchase, we would love to see what you decide
