I visited a store this week and looked at the empreinte felicie and metis.
Honestly, they looked so sumptuous, luxury and "worth" the spend.
I was interested in the dune/taupe colour and was concerned about colour transfer. If I recall correctly, the CA said it was a treated finish to the leather but of course, being a lighter colour, it could pick up stains. If you are planning to wear with lighter coloured clothes, then i'd 100% go for it.
i think the NFs are so iconic and the leather versions are still recognisable but give a different take on a classic.
