You're right, Ostrich is pretty tough, in the durable sense. I have an Ostrich Legacy. I don't wear her daily, but I don't have to baby her any more than I do my other bags...Ostrich is such a tough leather....
Luckily for my wallet, ostrich bags look like they have chicken pox to me.
I agree! The 'bumps' would drive me crazy! If given this bag as a gift, I'd want the receipt to return it!
Take care,
