I have an older model LV bag and the leather is quite stiff. I'm worried if I don't treat the leather soon it will crack. How do you do with your bags? What do you use? Any recommendations?
What kind of leather? Is it a soft leather? I am curious to hear the thoughts on this because when I just bought my first empreinte bag they told me do not condition. I asked if I should after a year or two of use and she said do absolutely nothing. I was a little surprised by that.
I use Apple brand conditioner for my vachetta. Can be brought on Amazon.

I actually had a bloomsbury that cracked in multiple places. I believe it was defective though because LV exchanged it out for a new purse.I have an older model LV bag and the leather is quite stiff.

+ 1 Applegard. I've used it for over 10 years. Back before the purse forum, it was recommended by My Pochette, the old LV authentication website.
Mink oil!!!! That's what an SA @ LV recommended for dry leather (vachetta)

It is what LV uses to condition I was told and has waterproofing properties too. I just ordered a jar
