possible to replace vachetta?

Of course that is the nature of vachetta, but I understand the OP's point. A LV bag will last forever, but you can have the vachetta replaced, including the piping. Because that still usually costs less than the original bag, many people choose to buy a used bag and have the vachetta replaced to spruce it up.

It doesn't matter if it will darken again because you will know exactly how it darkened and whose dirt and sweat caused it to do so! Wanting new vachetta doesn't mean a person doesn't appreciate the nature of what vachetta does.

But I don't know if Coach does that as a matter of course like LV does. I hope you are able to get some help.

yeah, it's the nature of vachetta, but it's one thing to have nicely tanned golden brown vachetta and icky dirty vachetta!!

yours doesn't look too bad. try babywipes first and if that doesn't take off the dirt, try mr. clean magic eraser. it takes off light surface dirt like that. the handles will be dry afterwards though, and you'll have to moisturize it with something. it'll probably darken a bit after that, but darker vachetta is way prettier than dirty vachetta.
