I have an 07 violet and the corners are getting worn. I have looked through the threads but I still don't know what to do. This is my FAVORITE bag and I want it to last, but I have heard such horror storied about LMB and AppleGarde that I don't know what to do . The colors is starting to fade a bit - PLease help! And if I should have posted this somewhere else I apologize in advance.
Thanks for your help!!!!!!!!

Post it in the above section. Apple is perfectly safe and when the bags get dry, the color fades, lifts and corners begin to wear much faster than if the leather is supple and moisturized. Apple suggests you do it when you get it, not when it's already dry and parched.

^^ unfortunately, i don't think there's much you can do about worn corners @ home...you can try apple conditioner on them to moisturize if they're dry & cracked...and if it gets bad enough & it's really bothering you, you can ship it to LMB for repair...i've seen photos of the beautiful work they've done repairing corners & handles...best of luck & let us know what happens

Just a bit of leather conditioner should help those corners. And remember, it's normal for any bag.
