Howdy!
I'm makin an account just to ask this question lol. Has anyone owned a medium or large rodeo for a longer period of time? Essentially, I got my hands on a Rodeo rep, in the large size (i know, i know...). But, I love the bag, so much. Think this is the first time I've owned a bag that felt like it fit into my style and life perfectly! But, the rep is showing cracking along the outside lining (I think thats what its called). Basically, all the outside lining, that has that smooth paint/sealing on it. The cracks are all showing up at the inner corners, which makes sense because it gets beat up as you open and close the bag all the time.
Basically, my question, is in regards to the quality of the real bag. I'm not surprised the bag is faulting in these areas, but im curious if anyone who owns the real thing has seen this kind of wear on the real bag. I'm seriously considering the real thing, but for 4-5k that kind of thing aint gonna fly with me at that price.
Any insight would be soooo helpful and appreciated. Sorry in advance if this isn't the right place to be asking this!
