Default Let's see how often people run into this problem? (Speedy handles peeling)
I was just wondering how many owners here on tPF have had problems with their speedy handles peeling over time?

Please pick the appropriate option. Thank you. ^^

I voted No because I have only 1 LV so far, the Azur Speedy 30. I would like to get the Damier Speedy but I'm afraid too becuase of all the peeling handle reports. I'm also falling in LVOE with the Trevi PM so I may opt for that instead of the Damier Speedy even though it cost way more.

Yes. My Ebene Speedy 35 handles peeled in 12 days of carrying it.

No problems for now, but I bought it in June, and have worn it maybe 10-15 times..

Seriously, I was wondering to. I have 3 speedys and have had no problems with any of them. Granted I don't carry them all the time but still this seems very strange to me.

I have a Mono Speedy 30 (treated) and a Damier Ebony Speedy 30. The handles are perfect and I can't imagine them ever peeling. I have inspected them and the stitching and quality of the bag are both perfect.

I treated the handles with apple guard spray. Oops - did I misunderstand what was meant by treating the bag?
