I do plan to use Applegard.
No made in stamp, no date code. I assume my bag is Miu.

The canvas feels thicker than my other bigger speedysView attachment 5229089View attachment 5229090View attachment 5229091View attachment 5229092View attachment 5229093. Stitching is perfect. The bag is very nice and more substantial, not foldable like the bigger sizes can flatten. Putting it next to a 25 size it looks tiny. I think it is more comparable to the nano than the 25.

Would you share your method on how to apple guard your bag? How many coats you use? How often do you need to redo it? TIA.

I have always used Applegard conditioner, not spray. I use a soft cloth to lightly coat each area of vachetta and immediately rub it off. I'll do it again in 6 months or so. This prevents waterspots and if you ever get denim transfer the blue will come off easily with a damp cloth. It may slow down patina process a little.

Interesting. Why do you use the conditioner and not the spray?
Is this the product you are referring to?

Yes. That's it. I don't use the spray because I don't want it all over the hardware. Also, I've been using the conditioning lotion forever, before the purseforum existed, before the spray existed. I've used it on boots & shoes, car seats, leather furniture, 18+ years of LV vachetta. It's also great on a leather jacket.

Got my bag this morning via UPS delivery. I took pictures but my right arm is in a sling due to recent surgery. Please excuse left handed bad photography.

Appreciate the comparison pic with the Alma BB. I can barely fit what I need in the Alma BB. I will be admiring the Speedy 20 instead of acquiring it. Soooo cute tho. Congrats to all those who are able to carry less stuff than me !! :P
