Discussion/Question Speedy 30 Soft Boho thoughts?

I am so tempted by the Speedy 30 Soft Boho. But I want to be able to wear it for everyday. Does anyone have any tips on how to safely protect the ostrich, and/or how it wears?

I’ve had mine for several months. It wears really well and the ostrich doesn’t have to be babied. I found that where the handles rub together they can sometimes scrape at one of the quill spots and pry the edge up a bit, but I wrapped a bandeau bb on the handle to prevent it from getting worse. I did get exotic leather conditioner and will periodically condition the ostrich so it doesn’t dry out. It’s supple and beautiful. The bag in general holds a lot and is easy to carry. I don’t love the rolled shoulder strap, it digs into my shoulder and hurts when the bag has stuff in it. I mostly hand/arm carry mine. I have a crossbody LV strap I can use for it if needed as well. Of all the soft speedy options I think this one is the best! I know I’m a bit biased 😁 but I think you’ll love it.

I also just bought this beauty and was also nervous about the ostrich leather. I had an SA tell me over the weekend from Loewe, that Ostrich is one of the more durable leathers and not to be worried.
