Mono Mat durability question

[Gibbs2424]

Hi folks -- I searched the forum here re: mono mat, and seemed to find conflicting opinions on whether it's a smart choice for wallets and agendas and anything like that that gets knocked around in your purse. Does it get scratched easily? Any shared experiences would be much appreciated! (Honesteyes? I know you are one who can comment on this! Your pieces are what got me liking the mono mat.) Also, is the black color in mono mat the one that shows up kind of gray in photos? If so, does it also look gray-ish in real life? thanks, everyone, as usual!

I have an agenda in Mono Mat and honestly I don't know how I see so many peeling and flecked on eBay. I don't exactly baby mine and so far it still looks brand new.

I think it's yuex who has a great pics of the black/gunmetal Mono Mat in her showcase? You might want to check over there to see if it's a color you enjoy.

i that you thought of me for this :shame:!

i've had the Mat Shelton for a little over a year now, and it's proven to be remarkably resistant to scratches -- and i'm not the most careful person with my bags! also, i have the Mat Agenda, which i use everyday, and it's also proven its durability.

and yes, the black is really more of a gunmetal gray. here's the post in my showcase for the agenda. i photographed it with my Shelton!
