I just bought this bag from Zappos. I wanted a large satchel style bag that could also be worn crossbody for days when I really needed a lot of space and pockets--like when traveling. I also wanted it to be a color that was neutral but more exciting than a basic black or tan and something that would go with a lot of colors--again helpful for traveling when I just bring one bag. So, the Jennings in python fits the bill pretty well but I was just wondering about the leather and the wear. I know normal MK leather wears very well (I have a regular leather MK purse in yellow) but wasn't sure about the faux python. It seems rough and didn't know if it might fray especially around the handles. Does anybody have longer term experience with this leather and can offer an opinion while I debate keeping this bag or not? TIA!
