Got myself a bag organizer from Etsy. This is about $35 shipped from China using EMS. There’s this other brand called Divide & Conquer that’s much nicer but about $60ish...

This will work for now. Check out my Lemon bag protector. LOL It wraps close much smaller but I just carelessly did it.

It looks pretty good quality and fits well! I got myself one from Samorga for $51 and it looks very similar to be honest so yours is a good deal. I haven't used my BF yet though, waiting for the orange shield stickers to arrive first lol [emoji28]

How long did it take your Samorga to arrive? Mine is well over six weeks at this point which I find odd, even though I know it’s coming from Korea. :/
 
Ladies I need your help! I’ve stored my 6 months old BF B30 in the dustbag whenever I am not using it. Tonight, I took it out to admire it and noticed thay the leather started to have chalky patches on them. I took pics and emailed my SA immediately. Can someone tell me if this has ever happened to them? IMG_1376.jpgIMG_1377.jpgIMG_1378.jpgIMG_1379.jpgIMG_1380.jpgIMG_1381.jpg

@jenniferx430 Most likely oils in the leather coming to the surface with humid conditions. Barenia treatment consists of long tanning periods in fat, so this is probably even more common with this leather. If you can take it to a store with a craftsperson, please do. I wouldn't recommend or do it myself (that's just me) but I know that otherwise you can run a hairdryer lightly over it on warm setting and it should disappear.

@jenniferx430 , Take a look at posts #714 through #720. @Betz , did your SA give you any insight?

Lovelies, has anyone taken their BF out in the snow? I wanted to carry mine tomorrow but am hesitant...:heart:
