Bag Inserts List: New Updates post #4,032

Hello Love Of My Life
Right now I do have tissue paper stuffed into my Balenciaga. I don’t worry so much about her since she is supposed to be slouchy and doesn’t have leather interior. I wrap packing bubbles with scarves for other bags. It’s just about the time and energy. I (used to) change my bags every day and sometimes even from day to night. It would just be nice to have something simple and appropriately shaped to plop into them without much thought as to whether or not I’m making pressure points.



I hope you are having a great day!

May I ask why you gals would not consider stuffing your bag(s) with acid free tissue paper or 100% cotton tee shirt
fabric?

That looks great. What colour is the insert?

Taupe!

Got it!! Acid free tissue paper is not a simple transfer!
Have a great day as well

Just ordered my first ever 7RP L'insert for my soon-to-arrive B40...the price in USD was almost $629...or 5x more than MaiTai inserts I've ordered. The reviews are always positive for these products but I keep thinking about the H products I could've gotten for that price...a 90cm scarf, an SLG, a couple of ties, a bracelet... I just keep reminding myself that this is an investment for an investment and that if it is the best possible product then it'll be worth it in the long run. I've tried D&C (too stiff), samorga (too heavy and disappointing material), maitai (love the design but can be a bit floppy) and finally bit the bullet w/7RP. We shall see....

You are going to love it! Definitely the right way to think about it.

Sharing my thoughts as a new user of 7RP inserts:

I got 2 insets - K25 retourne and K28 retourne. I was previously using felt inserts from a Korean Etsy seller. I liked those inserts and will continue to use them for my Birkins (which I wear and store unfastened) but as I tend to close my Kellys (wearing and storage), the edge of the insert was causing a slight ridge in front of my retourne Kellys. As 7RP tailors the inserts to the bag shape (even differentiating bet Sellier and Retourne), the trapezoid shape of insert would not poke out when I closed my Kellys,

The inserts are well-made and definitely fit my Kellys better. I bought a gold one to match my gold K28 and a blush one for my bleu encre Kelly Ado and noir K25. Although the blush color is very pretty, I wish I went with a darker color (bleu electrique) as I think dirt will show easily in lighter colors given the suede-like material.

Overall I’m glad I invested the money for these two inserts. But for more structured bags like Kelly sellier (I currently don’t own any!) , I think I will go with the Mai Tai ones as I find they don’t need extra support from the insert. Personally for my Bs (B25 and B30) the felt inserts work well as I almost never close the bag so it’s more accommodating to the shape of the inserts.

There seems to be a concerning number of Influencers and Vloggers talking about how wonderful their 7RP inserts have been of late. I don't know if it's just me, but if they're struggling to move merchandise so much at the moment, perhaps the abhorrent prices might be the issue, rather than putting freebies in the hands of a few social media personalities.

Or maybe that's just me being cynical and I'm thinking far too much about this on a Saturday evening...

Not cynical at all & many are taken aback that 7RP prices are priced the way they are..

The 7RP are very nice but very high priced. I have a samorga for my Evelyne and GP. For my kelly I have a 7RP. I would get a 7RP for a kelly or a birkin but that’s about it. I find it works better than acid free tissue paper, towels or the samorga to keep shape.

Oh I certainly wasn't bagging on the quality, but knowing what these textiles cost trade and acceptable margins for labour etc, I struggle to reconcile the value or exploitation of the market.
From personal experience I have used a Mai Tai insert which is excellent quality at what I feel is a fair price. And she's super helpful and friendly to boot!

Yes I noticed that too. I really loved the 7rp Tour Mel did on her channel and appreciate she shows the construction process. I have bought 7RP inserts because of her in depth reviews and and like that she has also uses them for years. All of a sudden, I see during the co-vid crisis all these new vloggers being gifted these inserts to talk about them and it makes me wonder is it because they are struggling so much because of the crisis? It is very interesting move as it happened all at once.
I do like the look of the new Mai Tai inserts but I have an old design which I didn't like. Might give their new one a try.
I do not regret my 7RP inserts but I would probably only buy them for my Birkins or Kellys. For your other designer bags, which inserts do you use?

Loved this tour too and yes the inserts are expensive but I love mine! No regrets!

The newly released blue azur color from 7RP looks beautiful. I could see it shimmering in a number of different bag colors.

Hi everyone, I bought a Kelly 25 Retourne insert from 7RP some weeks ago for my new Kelly 25. Unfortunately the insert looks very big and I tried to fit it and it press out the leather parts at the sides. I have already some 7RP inserts and always loved them but when I saw this I was shocked because this will deform my bag, its a swift bag. I contacted them today and will see what will happen but I am disappointed. A high priced organizer should not deform my bag because its no big. I can even close my bag hardly.
