I don’t want to bother Marco with this, so can someone help me out? Is Marco still doing free lining and hardware upgrades with the 20% off?
Yes, he is still honoring that offer. I got my last invoice today and there were no extra charges for non standard lining or hardware - only design modifications.
 
I have two Theias, but both are Verona. IMHO you should listen to Marco. I am looking at mine now and I cannot see it in a rigid leather. Maybe someone else has one and can enlighten us.
Does anyone here have a Theia in Pompeii or another sort of stiff leather? Marco doesn't seem to think the Theia will work in Pompeii. TIA!
I agree with southernbelle43, e. If you want the bag to hold it's shape or at least not be too slouchy, I would suggest nappa or even vacchetta- although there are far more nappa colors left than vacchetta. What color were you thinking of?
 
So maybe nappa in caramel or nut brown? Does nappa scratch at all? I usually get pebbled leather.
I have lots of MM Nappa bags. An orange Zhoe, yellow Zhoe, pink midi Soulmate, pink Zhoe, and a pink Penelope those are the ones I can remember. The orange Zhoe was my 3rd MM bag that I bought in 2014 when he first opened. I use it all the time there are no scratches on it. I have never had a problem with scratches on MM's nappa. I do look after my bags but I don't baby them. I use them often and as I said I have had no issues with the nappa leather. I have just ordered 2 more nappa bags a caramel nappa midi Alexia and an acid nappa Mia. I also have bags in pebbled and merino and pompei and nubuk and diamond and Africa which is like a pebbled leather. I have not had any issues with any of these leathers.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it.
 
I liked the Terra Cotta. I was thinking about a bag in that color group.
BTW I received my first 2 MM bags and will post later! So happy!
Oooh, how exciting! I can't wait to see your pics!

Nappa in caramel sounds yummy! I haven't seen any of the colors, so I don't really know what they look like. Do you have samples or pics?
I have several bags and slg's in nappa. It is my favorite of Marco's leathers. It definitely does not scratch easily and looks like new for years. It is not as shiny as it looks on pictures. It barely has a sheen, but for some reason reflects far more light than I expect. Think of the leather Coach used recently in the nomads or the Legacy line some years ago, but probably nicer.

I thought about the comparison between nappa and the leather for the Nomad. Thanks for the tips! The caramel color is on the blog, and looks very nice.

So Christine... just torture those of us on the fence... I'm halfway over... already. These blues are amazing.
Haha, sorry, but not sorry? I am torturing myself... Super close to adding myself to djfmn's Juliet Midi list... I just can't decide if I should go with the leather I most want or the color I most want... I love merinos and probably would love lamb, but I want a dark blue, similar to the river blue vacchetta, I actually liked Devyn's pics...

Last chance to get that river blue vacchetta... [emoji56]
