My vintage alto is one of my favorite workhorse bags. I can fit nearly anything into it and love it for travelling, as a tennis bag and general workhorse when I need to carry a lot. I NEVER worry about where I set it down. I treat it with Blackrocks and obenhauf and it is has a fairly dark patina. Some staining but it doesn't bother me at all.
A few weeks ago I broke one of the straps. My husband dropped it off for me at the LV store and they gave me several options.
I can get one anchor tab replaced (the broken one).
I can get all four anchor tabs with NEW HARDWARE and two NEW straps.
Here is my question:
Should I get the vachetta replaced on the bottom??
Will it looks too odd with new vachetta straps and a dark patina'd base??
Looking forward to your opinions! Thanks.
