I fondled a Dries Van Noten bag today which was made out of the most jaw-droppingly soft leather I've EVER felt. Before that, I'd been feeling up a massive Sissi Rossi tote which had SEEMED shockingly smooshy, then felt super-rough after the DVN.
Now, I've never really had the chance to fondle many RM bags IRL, so I'm wondering: are any of the leathers, like, awe-inspiringly buttery? I'm assuming there are since lots of the leathers are constantly raved about (Saddle, for instance, looks super-soft in pics - not a fan of the color or old hardware personally though). I'm looking for something exquisitely, unbelievably velvety-soft.
Also, the three colors which are catching my eye most are Concord, Double Cream and Wine. Has anyone felt all three (or even just one)? Can you offer feedback as to the softness? Wine *LOOKS* rich and luscious in pics, but so does my Hazelnut MAB and it's not actually soft to the touch. (Though I love it for all its other gorgeous attributes!)
Thanks in advance!
