Care Advice:Attention anyone who has clemence, evergrain, or swift bags...

i have clemence, i took it in after 3 years. i can't say i noticed any lightening of color, but i do think my bag looks lighter than a new bag... but i assumed that was from age. i recall it looking very great when i got the bag back.

hmmm seems like im a little out of the loop here.what is the Spa? the Hermes headquarters for maintanance?

i have 2 clemence taurillon. one bought in 2003 and its WHITE!!!

I have not sent off my Kellys for a Spa treatment. but I think I need to go. Can I get buffed, polished and come back smooth and wrinkle free?..:nuts:

How often do you send your bags to the spa for reconditioning & touchups? Or do you never? And is it true that the visits lighten up the color? TIA!

hermes_lemming, I only have my Lindy for a day but I think I am right to say that swift leather will trap dirt. It just looks potentially so. So I think a wipe every now and then is needed. And then for spa for more thorough treatment. Those with swift and have been using it daily, what's your verdict?

I just sent my shoulder birkin in clemence for spa treatment, after about 7-8 months from the time I got this. Some scruffed corners and the paint on the handles came off, so that will be touched up.

my black kelly chamonix get scratches on it easily...does anyone know if these scratches can be buffed out...and also what about black bags??? I don't want my black comming out lighter!!!

My brighton blue birkin clemence is so soft...I wonder if a spa treatment would straighten/stiffen it up...and I also don't want that comming back lighter!!!

I can't wait to hear more feedback from people who had their bags done!!!
