Handbags Louis Vuitton Women

How well do Yves Saint Laurent bags wear?

I very recently fell in love with the brown Mombasa. For reference: http://www.ysl.com/us/en/onlineBoutique/Women/Handbags/Shoulder-Bag/P-Small-Mombasa-Buffalo.aspx

My hesitation is due to a lack of experience with YSL bags. They generally don't appeal to me at all (though very much so to my grandmother) but this one caught my eye. However, it became apparent to me that I don't baby my bags. Some can handle my wear habits (Louis Vuitton) and many cannot. If I really love a bag, I don't want to see the leather crack or seams come loose. My Marc Jacobs Quilted Stam bag has loose seams on the bottom! I want to make sure that YSL bags can truly withstand years of hard wear. The leather is so supple that I'm afraid it will tear or crack.

Please don't answer if you are only assuming or automatically connecting the name brand to implied high quality. If you have personal (not "someone you know") experience with these bags then please let me know how you feel. Thank you.

I do not own a YSL Mombasa bag, but I do own a YSL Muse. I work in a hospital and I can tell you that this bag has put up with a lot of abuse from me (shoving it in my locker, taking it to lunch in the cafeteria, stuffing my pharmacy booklets and lunch and other personal items in it). It's a good investment bag and I would never part with it. I have Vuitton bags that I collected back in the early 90's and I can be honest with you that I would get rid of those first without hesitation before I even remotely consider my Muse bag.
