So helpful to hear your experience, sounds exactly like the path I was starting on, that I wanted the denim also because its hard time come by and also worried about the delicateness of the leather. I hope you also get to own a travertine one day!I totally get you! My first Jodie as well.. love the travertine color but i ended up with denim since it’s hard to come by denim-like leather. Also it gives a more casual vibe. For more ease of use, travertine will fare better i feel. The denim does feel more delicate and may not wear as well as travertine over time. I hope to own a travertine item one day. Enjoy your Jodie!
