Guys, what u all think of this bag? Thinking of getting this but afraid that it could be a tad shiny.. does the shinyness get reduced with use overtime? Thank you.

Hihi actually I just seen the bag physically and because I'm not well versed in porter bag products, would like to ask if that nylon material which makes the bag a little reflective or shiny typical/ common, so much so that it feels a little showy haha

you can say so. i think its porter signature to have the bags with a slight sheen on it and also partly because of the material. it wouldnt be that outstanding when you're wearing it la not to worry :o

From certain angles it does have abit of that shinyness. This is built to be a work/business type of bag.

On a side note anyone knows how to go about cleaning/maintaining such bags? I believe this bag the materials are:
MATERIAL
table: Cordura® Nylon Twill
(Teflon® Fabric Protector Processing · PVC Processing)
Back: Nylon Ox
(Teflon® Fabric Protector Processing)
Attached: Cow Kip (Chrome Tanning)

tenso/buyee loh, still got many other forwarding services


Rakuten got their Rakuten Global Express in-house forwarding service, but i dunno how to use... so my 1st time is try Buyee


my first exp with Buyee is you put the rakuten page link, click buy, select plan, pay with paypal.
Buyee hoots item on your behalf from the site (so you don't get any points etc).
Once reach Buyee warehouse, then you pay for domestic shipping of item in japan to their warehouse + shipping to SG

For those that visiting Tokyo. Do go to the Tokyo hands in Takashimaya Shinjuku. There is a Potr by Porter. If not please do go to the Omotesando or Tokyo station stores.
