I absolutely felt in love with the design of this bag!!! I believe this design is here to stay and considering purchasing one..
I really wish to put a bag collection in place that will last for long.. Both in the construction of the bags and their design :smile:
I am not a logo person at first but considering a LV Mono Speedy for its durability as well so..
Which one would you think has the biggest staying power?
The all leather ones or the logo ones?
Thanks for your feedback, I am totally new to Gucci :smile:

According to my SA the sig-print is the most popular with tourists but the leather her more reg. clients.

The stamped leather will be the most durable
The sig-print will also be durable but may lose it's crispness sooner that the all leather.
The Navy has different leather (like Hermes Box leather in polished calf) and will show scratches and the velvet stripe could look grubby but it's astonishingly beautiful

Thanks very much for your insight!
I believe I will get the full leather one in brown..
But I have to save first :biggrin:
Thank you again :flowers:
 
Tried 1955 in store today, it is beautiful, much better than I imagined.
I wonder if I should get Canvas or full leather in white?

I love the white. It's great that it's the stamped leather coz I have a stamped leather white background Flora Nice from 2014 (and the 1953 Loafers to match) and so far no yellowing, no grubbiness. I also have a Small Biscuit Horsebit-Chain shoulder bag from the '00s and it remarkably stain and scratch free.

Honestly, you can't go wrong with either.

Thank you so much! I love both and don’t have a white bag - very tempted:-)

I actually got my bag and I have to say it’s beautiful bag and I’m really happy with it . One negative is that I use crossbody setting which is extended all the way but when I do that there is two gold buttons on top and my hair gets wrapped around it and grabs my hair each time and hurts. That would be my only complaint . Other than that it’s super light , doesn’t hurt my shoulder. Easy to carry as crossbody and easy to open and close . I was able to fit all my daily essentials with more room.
I actually went to Gucci store and looking at online photos I was really into all leather in brown. When I saw it in person I thought canvas was so chic . Especially what I was wearing and with me it vibed more . I never had a canvas bag before so I just went for it.
