It does soften a bit, however not that much. It retains its structure and doesnt slouch. The back part that hits my hip dents the bag inward when I wear it, but pops back out easily with a push. HTH!
Awesome , thanks ! Looking forward to wearing it out. I'm just ordering the milk to condition it.

I actually think my little yorkie could fit In the bag. I usually take her everywhere:) maybe not though cause she might not be able to lie down.
 
Question for you all, how does the raw interior wear on the camello buckets? Is it prone to staining at all? The glossy finish of a colour seems so much safer but I love the look of the raw interior too.

I know. I was wondering the same thing! I heard that it sheds a bit.
I hope someone chimes in on how it wears.
Still getting used to the idea of very stiff leather !

Bergdorfs still has the Brandy one available I ordered with the raw interior. Just won't ship till October.
 
Ugh, shedding would not be so good. Love the brandy, just beautiful. Congratulations.

It's beautiful. I'm interested to hear how the raw interior has held up. Any issues?


No issues at all with the raw interior. I'm very happy with the bag in every regard. I found the exterior is very prone to marks at the beginning but that doesn't bother me anymore. I imagine Carmello bags have the same issues with marks/ scratches. I try not to take it out if I know it's going to rain, but that's due to the exterior rather than interior.

Oh good to know! I had read the raw interior sheds.

Great, thanks for this feedback. It's a beautiful combo and I actually like the marks and scratches -- it gives each bag such character. Rain is a little tricky with the bucket style. I always worry my stuff inside the bag is going to get wet.
