I have an older Prada wallet. I love it.
But it is showing deep wear on the corners, to the point where I am afraid to carry it.
I dont' want to take it to a local repair shop - is there a prada authorized repair center? What would you do? What would it cost to get the wallet repaired?

the repairs are expensive and take up to 2-3 months. I once had the nylon spongy type handles of a Prada bowling tote crumpled up from wear and tear .. the Prada boutique in Singapore took it in and replaced the handles are USD70.. and it took 2 mths as it had to be sent to Italy and back.

For a more genric item like patching of a wallet, i think a good shop that specialises in designer repairs (if you can find one) might do a quicker and cheaper job.

I have the same problem. The edges are worn and the lining ripped inside the coin section. I took it to Prada and they wanted so much $$$ to repair. I took it to a shoe maker and they won't take the responsibility. Needless to say, I can't use the wallet now.

My mother just gave me her old prada zip around wallet. I had no idea she had it!!

Regardless, I need the zipper replaced and have some areas of the wallet touched up. Do you think its worth taking it to a normal handbag repair store in New York City?
