Hi! how often do you condition the leather? and do you use water repellent spray? I recently bought older Balenciaga first bag that feels dry and I was scared to condition. I have the Cadillac leather conditioner and spray for other leathers... Thanks!
I use Leather CPR on all of my bags. Cadillac is good too from what I hear. I condition them whenever they feel like they need it, no time frame.
 
Okay! I won't let fear stand in my way. I can feel that the bag needs a "drink", its pink so I was scared to alter color. I haven't used the cadillac on any color other than white or black.. 😬
I don't think you'll have a problem, it may go slightly darker when you're conditioning but should lighten back up as it dries.
 
Hello. Can someone please help to authenticate this white Balenciaga. The black is real.

Did the first ones have different details? The findings I have on the white are:
- hardware doesn’t have the same depth in the grooves
- the grommets are bigger and skinnier
-The bar that goes in the hole to adjust the strap are skinner
- the straps are a bit different on the inside
- the inner tags are a thicker leather
- font on heart and coin pouch do not match my black one
- inside the card case made in Italy is much larger
- leather part that attaches the coin purse to the bag doesn’t have stitching
- tag in the white purse looks good though

I have a black and gold and all details are the same.

This white one has all these minor things but looks really real 🤦🏻‍♀️
Typing this out makes me realize this might be a very good dupe. I can add more photos.

But hoping the very first ones one be different? Or should all details always be the same?
