I have the medium oblique too and absolutely adore it. Easy to use and don’t have to be too fussy with it. Would love the larger size but still a bit nervous of the leather scratching. Haven’t used anything else since I bought it!

Please post a reply when you can about how fragile the leather is or does it stand up to daily use? Enjoy your Bobby - looks gorgeous
I agree! I absolutely love this bag!! I haven’t used anything else either in the last two weeks!! Enjoy it!
How did she manage to misshapen it so badly? I saw this insta thread, looks like she's riding a scooter, you know I think maybe the bag fell off as she was riding. That said, I tried the bag on, and it was so light, which I loved but maybe that's why it can loose shape?
I’ll definitely try to do that. I haven’t had it for long enough yet to do a proper review, but so far the leather is holding up great. Over time I’m sure it will scratch and mark a little, but for the couple of weeks I’ve used it so far it’s all good. I try not to mistreat my bag and I’m conscious about not putting it on rough surfaces and such, but at the same time I’m of a mind that my bags are to be used and not babied. Thank you for your kind words, I’m in love with it
I bought the medium size Bobby and fell in love with the gray straight away.
The bag is beautiful and the size is enough for me.
I love the white Bobby but my practical side is worried that it's a double whammy with the scratches AND color transfer/dirty potential!! The tan is my next favorite, but this grey one is starting to grow on me!! It's a toss up between the two neutral colors for now!!
I totally agree with the white! I think it's so stunning with the GHW, but it's great because the shape of the bag is more casual. So the white Bobby seems to be super versatile. I have seen photos on IG though of dented Bobbys already and my heart would be a little crushed I think, so I'm going to admire from afar for now.
@Trendmadame61 How is the leather holding up? I am debating between the tan or the grey even if my heart really sings for the White. Does the leather scratch easily or dent easily? @shopmycloset_lk and I would love to know!!
What's the wear and tear like on the oblique print? I really like this bag in the oblique but worried about maintenance since it's not leather. I'm not too familiar with Dior...is the oblique a fabric material? I feel like if it gets dirty, it'll be harder to clean than a leather bag.
Oblique is a fabric material, but it is a vintage tapestry fabric that has a lot of dimension and texture, and is stronger than the canvas Gucci canvas. I would actually argue that it is much stronger. The background tends to be beige for the navy, burgundy, and brown versions, which doesn't show dirt easily.
Does anyone have any info on the brown oblique version that was teased in the AW promo video w/ that k-pop star Jisoo? I haven’t heard a peep about that style, even though all the other blue variants from the collection are already on the website. It’s probably the only colour of bobby that’s really spoken to me so far.
In fact, this is the only “official” looking stock photo that I can find of it. The poster says the photo is from the dior IG, but when I go there I can’t find it. This is mystifying me. Help!!!

I was just browsing and it looks like the brown oblique was released in Asia based on this vid. Also shows how much the medium can fit
