Hello there! Since I am falling in love with East West Town Tote in Warm Grey-Blue Oxford, I would like to see a picture of it. For the moment I found it only on uk.coach.com. Maybe someone have it and can show it? Thanks a lot! :smile1:

Does anyone have the mini grey/oxford blue edgepaint? How bright is the blue? Does it still go with alot even with the blue accent? What do you think of this color combo? TIA

Post #3826 is a very accurate view of the blue edgepaint on the mini Borough as well. I feel that the edgepaint is subtle enough to go with plenty of outfits. It is brighter than the fall edgepaint colors which I think I prefer but I wouldn't say you'd have to plan around it. Good luck with your decision.

Thanks...just took a chance on the Warm grey Reg size B , that was just reduced on Von Maur website!
It was 299.00 only 17.00 bucks more than the grey/blue mini I saw on another site. Plus , it was no tax and free shipping both ways! Hoping its love! At least I know it will go with everything...color wise!

Has anyone had any wear issues? I've had my med for about 7 months and my large for about 3 months, I use them about once a week or two and I take very very very good care of my bags, the edges on my 7 month old are done for and the edges on my 3 month old have changed color and starting to fade and Frey, I'm thinking it's cause it's such a sharp corner for a soft leather, I'll post some pics tonight, I'm still very very very very happy with the borough collection it's just a little soon to see that much wear on something I hardly use.

Can't wait to see your pictures. Are these the med pebbled and large pebbled versions you're talking about? Glove tan leather or that smooth polished stiffer version?

Ok so let me start off by saying I sell handbags for a living (not Coach) so I know how to treat a bag, I'm extremely careful with the bags in my collection and only use a bag once a week or once every two weeks, I'm still very happy with my borough bags but wanted to show how fast the wear is showing, my first is the gray borough med in glove tan leather and the second is the borough large in brown Edgepaint leather, I've had the gray med for about 7 months and the brown large for about 3 months.ImageUploadedByPurseForum1408076939.760986.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1408076948.552893.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1408076959.269257.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1408076972.905926.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1408076981.493890.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1408076991.112412.jpg

I have had my pebbled oxblood for about 8 months, and wear it for several weeks at a time (probably 2 different intervals). I've noticed no corner wear, but this may be a stiffer leather
with (I'm assuming) a different dye process.

Sorry this has happened. I was thinking of a walnut edgepaint, but now I'm not so sure.

Your pictures discourage me! I wanted to buy an East West Town Tote in the same grey retro grove tan leather, but maybe it is too fragile for me. :nogood: I have a Mini Borough in black pebbled leather that after 7 months it's still wonderful, and I use it more than twice a week.

I have the Vermillion glove tanned and have used it quite extensively and haven't had any problem. I bought mine back in December when they were first released.

It looks like the bag is rubbing against something. Maybe when you put it down or hit a wall or corner without realizing it.
