Which color do you think would show less wear over time for the BJCM? I am worried about the foot rest area showing dirt over time. We are at a standstill between the black or the crimson/gray?

I tend to like the black color model of BJCM, but this depends on your personal taste and also on where you live and how dirty the streets get where you would be taking your stroller. If you live in a hot sunny climate, you would be better off with the lighter color. If you live in the area that has lots of rain/snow then probably black would stay a bit cleaner after extensive use over the years. Although when it comes to strolling through the slushy/salted sidewalks I don't know if the black stroller would stay cleaner than any other color. A lot also depends on the stroller material and how easily it attracts dirt.

I don't have this stroller, so I can't tell you, from seeing it on the street, none of the colors looked awfully dirty to me. With colored strollers I could tell easier whether they were newer or used, with black one it's harder to tell. The foot area would get dirty though, that's a given if your child would get in and out of the stroller when it's raining/snowing.

i think black sometimes shows more dirt.

I have a 2yr old red BJCE. No problem with dirt showing. It doesn't look worn.
I have a 2yr old black Quest. It looks faded, almost grey, on the parts that fold.

I think it depends on the fabric. I am guessing that either BJ will be okay. The fabric is very rugged and easy to wipe down.

We have the orange/gray BJCM. We have used it for over a year and the color looks as vibrant as it did out of the box. I agree that black tends to show more dirt. I would go for the crimson.

I have 2009 red/black and the black tends to show more dirt then the red.
