My super soft leather purse has, I'm sure, quite a few rubs, scuffs, and nicks, but that's okay. I don't really notice them. It looks pleasantly used and like it "belongs to someone" if that makes any sense. It's structural integrity is not compromised in any way.

I also second Fossil stuff. I'm on my second watch from them, and I've got a Fossil wallet that's lasted me for over four years. It looks quite "run in", but it's held up great and the wear gives it character.
