mini lin or mono speedy 25?

i love how the mini lin looks- i really do- but other tpfers have said the fabric might pill and that would keep my from buying it. i have the speedy 25 in mono and i love it. haven't carried it, but i love it. (and i never thought i would like this bag.)
 
I'd get the Mini Lin now and save up tp get the mono speedy later:nuts: . You can probably be a lot rougher with the mono though so it depends on how often you want to use it, look after it etc.
 
The mono would be more durable - it is not leather - it is vinyl coated canvas. I love the mini lin - it would not pill - it is made of cotton and linen.
