I found this bag care page in Glamour, I believe. I hope it is visible!

Here's a thread from Coach that talks a little bit about their moisturizer vs. apple.

I wouldn't want to take a chance so I got apple!

What other item other than Apple water and stain protection do you think is essential for dark colored MAB?

Tracy · Oct 23rd, 2008, 06:56 PM

the apple care, imo, is essential for any leather bag.

Tracy · Oct 23rd, 2008, 06:58 PM

there recently was a thread in Handbags and Purses about Method leather wipes---lemme find it...

leather wipes by Method

I strongly second this!!

jenniletv · Oct 28th, 2008, 06:10 PM

Can anyone tell me if it is okay to condition and treat the stamped leather? I did a search of this thread but it did not have any matches to my search request.

Help?

Tracy · Oct 28th, 2008, 07:21 PM

Hmmmm, i don't know. i would think it would be OK. maybe PM mrs. shoegal. she has at least one stamped bag.

jenniletv · Oct 28th, 2008, 07:25 PM

Thanks Nola!!

I sprayed my sage stamped MAB with apple and it looks fine. I didnt condition it tho

jenniletv · Oct 30th, 2008, 11:46 AM

Okay so I conditioned my black/blue stamp mam last night and it turned out fine. I lightly applied the conditioner on a test spot first then waited and once I realized it would be fine I applied it all over then let it dry. Then I buffed it, like apple guard says with a dry cloth. While it was drying it appeared darker but once it dried it lightened back up. I then sprayed a light coat of the rain and stain repellant and she's good to go. The conditioner did not help with some of the scuffs but it did make the bag softer all over and appear not so "dull" if that makes sense.
