Did a longer tour of my beautiful pocket satchel!
My Florentine Logan in Tmoro arrived. Not sure with the pebbling if i should try for a 2nd as the DBLove sale ends today. I prefer smoother but don't mind some texture as I know it's leather. Does it look like Florentine to you or a pebbled bag? I go back and forth lol

LL: looks like Florentine to me. But.... you have to be happy.
No guarantee the next one will be any better. I always consider the
cost of the bag, and the cost of the return, and the cost of the replacement
in my decisions. Remember, Dooney and ILD don't do exchanges.... you need to
order a new bag and return the old one in separate transactions.
Any points applied to the first bag are lost. I've been there.... made the phone calls,
waiting for CS for hours, their rules are their rules.

Lavender j, thank you...i appreciate the opinion! I'm also thinking another Tmoro will be the same. I'm reading more complaints with this color this year. The front I'm really ok with. The back is what gave me the pause. Of course I am comparing it to my smoother mini satchel and a you tube video.It feels like an ordeal to go through the return process so I will carry it around the house and see how I feel lwith it loaded up. And I will buff it a little.. it is dry in spots the photo isn't conveying. I will try another color at a good sale point again like the holiday and glitch sale. It is a nice bag! You were right! Feels lighter to carry. I got this one for 25%off plus some points for $195. Still better than the current $261 sale price, no code.
Have a nice weekend!

Thanks for the feedback! I bought it new from the main Dooney site, and it arrived a little creased. I got it on the 30% off sale plus got another $30 off by using points, but I'm still a little disappointed in the creasiness. I also already have a ton of Flo bags. I think I fell for the sale on the site since there's been a bit of a drought on D&B sales on the good stuff since the holidays. I'm also trying to use my points before they're discontinued. I'm considering returning it for a Croco Fino. I have one in red and it's gorgeous.

My only issue with the Florentine large zip Barlow is the weight of the bag. It's beautiful
and very easy to use. But I am sensitive to handbag weight and all that beautiful
Florentine leather makes it heavy....for me... even empty.

I had one and sold it. Just didn’t work for me. Heavy and the shape was odd. I love the natural though.
The advice lavenderj gave me above on my brown tmoro Logan helped me so much to decide. I returned it as it really was too textured and dull in person for me. I wasnt reaching for it at all. I dont mind imperfections but i just didnt like this bag even with the great sale. I got a Chestnut Florentine Logan instead and I Absolutely love it!

Great advice from this thread, as usual
. I'm going to give it another couple of days to see how I feel. I tried it on at a local Dillards a few months ago and loved it then. I'm not sure why I'm not head over heels now that I have it? Again, I so wish D&B had better QC. If it arrived in perfect shape, I'd be keeping it without hesitation.
