I thought the strap choice was an interesting change with this brick red color as well since the large size previously came with the oblique strap. I actually really like the larger strap as I find it more comfortable.
It should still be available at most boutiques. Sometimes they just take certain colours off the website to showcase the newer ones.
Hi!! How has the oblique held up to wear?? Absolutely love the oblique look, but I do not baby my bags and am worried that the fabric will not wear well to use and am worried about it being exposed to rain/snow, etc. I personally love the look of the oblique for this bag more than the leather, and I would be too worried about scratching up the smooth leather too
Agreed. The guitar strap is gorgeous and beautiful quality. I was worried it wouldn't be as nice as the straps they sell separately, but it's just as stunning and well made. I know the large size isn't the most popular, but it's pretty great value for money with the strap. Maybe the navy oblique just didn't pair well with the brick red.
I was finally able to make it into the boutique a few weeks ago to try everything on. I surprised myself and fell in love with the large pebbled version in warm taupe. She's a beauty!
Yes! The tan box leather is still available in store. I'm not sure exactly which tan color it was - the lighting was so yellow in the display shelves so it was hard to tell. I did ask my SA about a pebbled cognac but she wasn't aware of anything.Congrats, she‘s gorgeous!
Did you see any camel or cognac?
Hi,
How has your Bobby held up? Would you mind posting a pic after so many months of use? Thanks a lot!
Absolutely! I tried to take some photos in both natural light (it's cloudy here today, crazy how dark the bag looks!) compared to indoor lighting. You can see there are some *very tiny* scratches on the front near the buckle, and by the back pocket (which I use every time to put my phone in, so that's inevitable) but you really have to be searching to even notice them. I have to say overall I'm SUPER thrilled with how Bobby's held up - I definitely don't baby the bag that much anymore, but it's also not my everyday bag by any means. I would say I use Bobby on average about twice a week or so, usually just on the weekends or for the occasional during the week errand, but even so - the box leather is MUCH more durable and scratch resistant than people give it credit for, IMO.
I hope this helps!
Your Bobby has held up beautifully! If you ever want to minimize the already hard-to-see scratches, you can use your fingers to gently rub the scratches in a circular motion. This can minimize their appearance even more.
Thank you so much for taking all these photos!
Your Bobby looks amazing!
The scratches are barely visible, it’s held up perfectly.
I hope I will be able to get a camel or similar colour.
Hi my first post on this forum (I don’t usually post on any forum, my sister describes me as socially challenged ♀️). I’m deciding between medium Bobby box camel / tan vs grained taupe as my first Dior. And it’s a very hard decision. I’d love to buy both but not likely given my current life stage (ie kids). A little bit of my style - I’m not adventurous (All my bags are black including 5 x classic Chanel bags and 2 x prada totes that my husband says look identical ♀️ this Bobby is going to be my first non-black bag!), my wardrobe is 70% black + neutrals. I love navy and wear quite a bit of navy for work so am thinking of getting one of the blue shoulder straps for Bobby. Please help!
