A few days ago I posted some pics on my new VG city.. The handles on the edge where the lace wraps around are starting to crack. I heard that this is somewhat normal but was just curious to how normal and if it has happened to anyone else with a VG bag? To be more specific, it is rubbery stuff on the edge that is starting to crack. I am quite upset about this since I have never had this happen to any of my other bags including cheao ones! I even have a besso inspired bag which is what got me to buy a real one and that bag has not done it.

I have added accrylic glaze which has helped but i am curious to know who else is having this issue?

I have an Ink City that had two owners before me, and it has begun to do that a little... however, it's a much older bag than yours and I don't think it was very well taken care of before I got it.
