I went through a lot of the Chameleon threads and know that opinions are high on the durability of the pebbled leather version, but I haven't seen much on the smooth leather version. I'm interested in the large tote in black, which I've only seen in smooth leather, and I'd be using it as a work/travel bag that would go with me on flights etc., so it would have to be pretty tough. If you've had one for a while, how is it holding up? Is it prone to scratching? Have you been caught with it in the rain, and if so how'd it do etc.?
TIA!
