is the GG fabric worth $995+? I really love the way it looks and so tempted to get one bag but I'm so worried about fraying and color transfer since they're like investments.
Yes you should go for it...you won't have to worry about fraying so much now that they have put that leather trim around the edges...imo that is where you would usually have to worry about fraying is those bottom corners. I think it is so worth it...also I think the gg fabric is a little tougher than people give it credit.
Agree with Div4life posted! A lot of people thinks the fabric will only last for 2 wearings but that's not true. I think the weave is pretty tight. My sister had been carrying her sukey for the past several months non-stop everywhere including work and still looks good. I have several fabric bags and no fraying issues at and my sukey boston is in heavy rotation since I got it a year and a half ago and still looks new. I mean it's not coated canvas like gg plus so it does require that little bit of extra care like not spilling your coffee on it! lol
Yes, Jessica1981, like everyone says, the GG fabric is quite sturdy. Now, with that said, yes you do need to be a little more careful, and dont' drag it on the floor and stuff but they are quite durable and weaved so nicely. I love Gucci! But my SA's are not so nice either. I know LV gets a bad rep for being snobby but in my mall, the Gucci ones are the problem. But that doesn't stop me .
