I have been meaning to replace my MK smartphone wristlet with TB one because of the zip pocket inside on the latter. I've been waiting for the Robinson in Navy to go on sale and now it is but I saw the Thea in pink and I got confused. Lol.

I really like the gold emblem on Robinson, all the more when it is against a dark color but I also like the tassel detail of the Thea. I only have TB shoes (Although I have a robinson zip coin wallet that I haven't used).

which do you think is a better leather and overall look? Robinson or Thea??

Thanks!

I bought the Robinson in black a few weeks ago, and it is my OBSESSION. The gold emblem looks crisp and classic against the dark saffiano. The Thea is definitely super cute, but having held them both in my hand to choose one to buy, I feel like the Robinson both looks and feels sturdier and more expensive. They're both beautiful, though!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I wish I live near a store so that I can see and feel them both in person. Would you mind sharing a photo of your black robinson?

IMO Robinson more classic and looks much better. Love the saffiano leather along with the great review from other members on the tory burch.com site. I know that dilemma. I have been waiting for these TB Patent Thora 2 sandal on sale and finally last night I just bought them both. Good Luck on your decision and Happy Shopping

I would go with the Robinson, especially if you are going with a darker colors, the saffiano leather is much sturdier and I find the lighter color wallets have a light colored zipper which always get stained from use.

I would choose the Robinson. I like saffiano leather compared to the "pebbled leather" which I think the Thea slightly has. The Robinson will also be stiffer and I like the logo better :)

I've never been a huge fan of the saffiano since it seems to look fake/plastic/vinyl... I mean, if you are going to spend the money on a nice leather piece, get something that looks like leather - but on the other hand, I totally understand the maintenance issue with leather. I personally love the look of the Thea and the tassel but I think this all depends on how you will use it and how careful you are with it. The pink and pebbled leather will definitely show wear and tear much faster than the saffiano Robinson. I think navy is a great color choice with the gold hardware too. Let us know what you decide.
