Olympe Owners: How Are They Holding UP?

twiggers · Jul 9th, 2007, 10:23 PM

Hey there,

So these have been out a couple months.

How are they holding up?

Are you noticing a lot of dirt? Color transfer? Anything?

Please let me know!!!! This will be my largest LV purchase to date, and I don't want to regret it later!

i haven't had any problems with my Stratus PM yet, and mine is in the Ecru color which is lighter than the Beige

No problems here either, it just keeps on looking gorgeous

No problem for me at all...

this is a quote from my own comment in clubhouse..... Flying into Cloud~Olympe club

i still LOVE this bag, but water is a big NO NO for this beauty!!! Obtw, when the leather gets wet, the spot turns purple / blue / grey....so you guys know! it dries back to normal color...so you don't freak out like i did!!!! my DH thought there were so many pen marks on my bag when we got cought in rain!!!!

i'm so happy with my beige Stratus PM! but please be careful with color transfer, you guys!!!! i got rained on it a few times while we were in japan for two weeks for a vacation, my pre-washed (so many times) black t-shirts did so much damage to this precious bag..... i had to use baby-wipe to clean it right after, a few days later almost all the black on one side came off.....but just be aware!!!!

NO!!!

my lovely SAs were very helpful making my decision!

nope- no problems. just me trying to stop myself from caressing it nonstop! :)

Thanks everyone! I thought I read someone saying they got blue jean transfer or something.
I really hate bags that I have to be super paranoid about....but if y'all say it holds up! That is good!

I've carried mine for almost two weeks straight (and I'm pretty rough on my bags) and it's still like new. I agree with Sophia about when the bag gets wet...it kinda freaks you out because it turns that dark color, but then it dries just fine. I mostly wear black and dark clothing and no color transfer whatsoever. I was thinking it was a fragile bag too, but I don't think that anymore. I love this bag and Twiggers, I don't think you are going to be able to talk yourself out of this bag! lol Girl, face it...you're hooked like the rest of us!
