Hi everyone! I'm excited to be joining the speedy b club vey soon (awaiting a preloved speedy b 30 in DE). I purchased one knowing it had corner rubs, at first it didn't concern me, but now I'm wondering if the corner rubs eventually lead to canvas tearing/damage? All four corners have some rubbing, is there a way for me to clean it off or is the rubbing due to the print getting worn down? 
Can you help me decide on my next Speedy B? 
I already have the 35 in DE and use it as my mom bag or work bag when I have to go into the office. Really - anytime I need to carry a bunch of stuff, I use the 35. I love it.
I am 99% sure I'd like the 25 but am not sure if I should get another DE or go for Monogram. I LOVE the look of the vachetta with the mono canvas but the vachetta scares me a little bit. Those with the mono, has the vachetta been a pain to keep clean? I would probably buy the LMB protector for it. Any advice or opinions are welcome!

Wanted to share my speedy b 30. I was deciding between 30 or 25 but chose 30 because I want to be able to travel with it. It really is the perfect size. The 25 is very cute but like others have said, the opening is very small. I am about 5'2", and it doesn't look big when worn crossbody.
Keen to see responses! I am in the same boat! I have the Speedy B 30 in DE and really want the 25 size now and love the look of mono but scared of the vachetta...but i feel getting another DE in 25 is too similar! I have the classic in mono 25 but found the handles got dark/dirty really quickly... My SA thinks this might be less likely to happen in a Speedy B because you wont be carrying by handles all the time unlike the classic but I'm still not sure..hope you get some great advice as I too am keen to know too!Can you help me decide on my next Speedy B?

My only speedy is the denim w/the vachetta handles. This was one of my first bags and I didn't clean it quarterly like I should have so the handles did darken. All my other LV's are mono and the vachetta is great. I'm also on the ledge of

I have three Monogram Speedy Bs and the vachetta is not a hassle at all for me. I got the original version in 2011 and today it only has minor dirt/scuffs, but I only use the handles occasionally to pick up the bag by hand or to carry it briefly in by arm. If you live in a rainy climate though, the chance for water marks would be the only concern I would have. If it does rain, however, you could always pull out your DE! So get the Monogram! It's a classic and so beautiful all year round!
Thank you! What sizes do you have? If you happen to have the 25 and 35, would you be willing to take a comparison pic?
The speedy bandouliere is my favorite bag from LV. I have the mono 35 and the de 30. I purchased the 25 but sold it after using it once, the size is perfect for me but I hate how small the opening is. I've been using my de 30 as my work bag for two yrs now and I must say it still looks brand new. My 35 is 3yo and the vachetta isn't very tan yet, I only use it for travel.

I have a speedyb25 in mono and love it very much. It has been my everyday bag for months now. The vachetta is patina-ing and I love it even more. I do not carry it in pouring rain. There are a few small watermarks but not really noticeable to the naked eye. I just love it so much. It's the best crossbody.
I am planning to purchase the speedyb 25 in damier ebene next to alternate it with
