my bayswater in chocolate has the exact issue, if i stuff it with lots of scarves etc and leave it for a few weeks it does stay straight for a while but soon returns to its slouching. I'm interested in these bagliners anyone know where to get them?Apologies for jumping on this thread but anybody got any tips how to sort out the left side. It doesn't bother me that much just don't want it to damage the bag. I stuff it when not in use.

Hi i got my Bays yesterday in oak. How long until it loosens up, i like it being quite rigid!
Congratulations on your oak bays! Hope you get lots of enjoyment from her!
There's a few threads on keeping the shape of our bags but here's one of the recent threads:

Also, on this thread, on page 8, I've cut out a piece of card and placed it at the base of my bays and it worked a treat!

Thanks for all the comments ladies. I'm hoping to go to a store this weekend and try one on and make up my mind. Once I do that, it'll just boil down to the age old oak or black debate!
I think a bag liner will be the way to go. I've checked out the VIP liners and they look great, so thanks for pointing those out. I love the TPF!!
So here are some pictures of my temporary solution with a folder (please check my earlier posts in this thread!):
I'm going to work on this idea and I hope I'll find a good permanent solution for my bag! If not, I'll just love her the way she is - slouchy or not
(p.s. had to divide this post again in two because of the security token problem...)

Roxaholic said:Hi Steph - just come across this thread - my RO Bays is already doing same! - left side fine, right side, defo more slouch - and when I sit her down she sort of tends to tip backwards - can't seem to stop this, but I do make sure (when in use)that I stuff her with my scarves in the evenings (esp in corners) and it does seem to help - but with the softer, more unstructured leathers I think it can't really be avoided....we just have to love them and put up with their idiosyncracies!!!
....and I figure that, over time, the other side will hopefully soften to same degree - so match a little better
....also - thinking aloud - my more squashed side is at the front when I carry over shoulder - so maybe the weight of my arm (or the owner's before me!) has squashed it ?
