Thank you! I was so glad to see they still have them at Bloomingdale’s. It was exactly what I was looking for.
I don’t exactly see it as fuss free. (Sorry @frenziedhandbagThank you! I was so glad to see they still have them at Bloomingdale’s. It was exactly what I was looking for.
) water stains are permanent on this material. Somehow it’s easily scratched too and dirt stays on stubbornly... I had an old one grow mold which I cannot remove. Tried cleaning it with water and the water left permanent stains. I ended up throwing it out. I’d say be careful with your bag.
Actually I do experience water stains on my Neos too and I used to own quite a few before I rehomed them all. For me personally, I didn't like the sight of the water stains but mine are all older versions. Other users seem fine with their newer versions though.
I see...mine was from 2015. Is that the old or new version?
Thanks for the heads up. I’m not too worried due to the # of handbags I have, this will probably get used maybe an equivalent to 1 week per year. Love a navy bag with SHW though.I don’t exactly see it as fuss free. (Sorry @frenziedhandbag
I will think old cos the newer Neo bucket bag that I got much later does not seem to have that much of water stains or scratch issues. The new owner whom I rehomed to shared that she absolutely loves the bag as it just wipes down after she was caught in the rain. It's black though so that could also be the reason. My mum had a navy (much older version) and it had water stain issues too.They won't remove and eventually she got annoyed as well.
I have a Navy Neo from 2015 and I once got a ramen soup stain on it. It came off with water and a little soap. The Neo still looks brand new
Weird...mine was navy too...I should’ve taken a pic of it before I threw it out. It was almost unrecognizable.I have a Navy Neo from 2015 and I once got a ramen soup stain on it. It came off with water and a little soap. The Neo still looks brand new

Late to this conversation about stains on the Neo but I want to second what SD said above and share what the lovely LC ladies here said on the Which LC You are Carrying? thread. If you search “Dawn” on that thread, you can see some posts around Dec 2019 on this. It’s basically using a little Dawn dishwashing detergent on a towel to clean, lightly wash off soap residue with clean damp towel and drying area with a dry towel, etc. Here are before and after pictures of a large stain on the front near the bottom — you can see the stain is pretty much gone in the After picture. Hope this helps a bit

I found mold on mine, I washed it with water and detergent, and left to dry in the sun. Water stains and wrinkles never came out. Saw mold spores on other parts of the bag, I promptly threw it out...like in the trash bin.Late to this conversation about stains on the Neo but I want to second what SD said above and share what the lovely LC ladies here said on the Which LC You are Carrying? thread.
