Thanks for the info! Do you happen to know what the inside is like now? I heard reviews about the inside tearing after a while so I just want to make sure they put better quality on the inside! And leather color rubbing off on clothes? Thanks!I bought the black bag with black hardware 4 months ago from a boutique. It is still chipping but personally it doesnt bother me at all. I am pretty tough on this bag and I think it gives it a cool rocker edge!
