Default My very own Kooba!
I've been reading all of your posts on Koobas for the past couple weeks, pining away, and I finally got one of my own! I am now the proud owner of a beautiful brown Nelli .
I've been reading about AppleGuard and I am wondering if this is the ideal protectant for all Koobas? Does it discolor this yummy leather at all?
Thank you in advance!

Apple Guarde is totally safe to use on your Kooba. Depending on how porous the leather is on your bag, the conditioner will soak in but will not permanently change the color. Be prepared that it might seem to temporarily darken the leather if it is supple, but that should go away within a day or so. I've used Apple Guarde on several Koobas, Balenciagas, and RMs.

Will we get to see pics of your Nelli soon???

Hmmmm I think it depends on the leather... I have used it and not had any problems on my other kooba (not the nelli). My best advice for you is to look up the post of people who just got nelli's, and specifically pm (private message) them, and ask what they used. They would know best
