My first birkin was a black 40 togo with palladium hardware, but you know when you start it´s almost impossible to stop. So now I have different colors, but I always tend to use the black one, because I just love the patine, the leather is softer, and floopy(I don´t know if this is the right term), I would love my red for example to look like the black one. Will I have to use it as much as I used the black or there´s any way to make the leather like I have explained. I feel that it´s less pretentious and much more cool when they are with patina. And the other day I discover why I was not using tha much the others, first I tought the color ones were more feminine, then I tought I was keeping them for a special ocasion, but I find out, I like the way the old one looks, and I want them all to be like that... HELP ME!
I know this might be silly, a lot of you protect, and keep them on the boxes, and blablabla, but I rather have things with an usage look, like my LV luggage, hated when was new...

I would say start using them and they will flop.
Put plenty in them, sweater, book, you know all that stuff you want to carry in a 40. I even put shoes in my 40 when I get a pedicure.

I'm with you, vreelandia. I like my bags to look lived-in (to an extent). And I think golconda is right -- just use them more and gravity will start to help once you put some stuff in :flowers:

Oh yes books, now I know, when I was studying in NY, and only had the black I carryied so many books, I think i still have one shoulder lower than other because of that... Also the rain, maybe... and wheater conditions, because it´s kind of ridiculous, I mean for me, going out with the rain cover... They have quality, they are leather from animals, and animals as far as I know are waterproof :P

also what helped with my birkins was to stuff them with a LOT of blankets/pillows..clothes...until it is FULLY filled. then close it fully and hang the handles on a door or something. that way the leather can relax a lil bit..

believe me it helped with my blue jean 40 cm one!
