Be careful spraying the Yam...the color is very prone to color changes, it's very delicate.

Yes, be sure to test the spray on a hidden area. I sprayed the tag on my yam Bungalow with AppleGard rain & stain, and it did darken the color. So I used a Coleman leather/suede spray I've had for ages on the rest of the bag and that didn't change the color (I did 2 coats).
I have to say, though, that I've used Apple conditioner and spray on many other leather things without any problems at all! |

Thanks for the tips. I'll definitely test in a hidden spot on both bags. I don't think we have the Wilson's leather care products that are mentioned in so many of the "care" posts up here in the Great White North. I went to Holt Renfrew today (kind of a Neiman Marcus equivalent?) and bought a spray: Tana. I figured that if they were telling people to spray their $1000 designer shoes with it, it should be pretty safe! Turns out it's the same stuff that most shoe/leather repair shops stock around here - hardly fancy :) I'll post a review in the "care" thread for my fellow Canucks.

I was pretty sure they'd wait until the 50% sale was over on the 21st before posting all the new stuff. I did pre-order a pair of the Iskia sandals in Eucalyptus, though. Hope I got the sizing right! But I can't wait to get a better look at the clothes.

What color is Eucalyptus? Is it more white or gray?? Does it have a green cast? I can't tell from the pix.

It looks like a light grey to me. I pretty much love all shades of grey, so I won't mind a greenish cast if there is one.
