Suede linings on MJ Bags

Really? I never had a hard time keeping the suede clean - in fact, I think it's easier to keep the suede clean than the canvas. I have a suede brush & eraser that I use regularly, but I think what works the best is this large denture brush I have (it's like a fat toothbrush). I just brush the suede or spots where it's gotten dirty and it keeps it nice & clean.

Great tip! I am going to have to try this! :tup:

I also agree - it makes me a bit cranky that the prices of the bags are going up, but the little luxuries like the suede linings are decreasing. Doesn't stop me from buying the bags, of course...but I miss those little touches on all the bags. The weight never bothered me but then I like a big bag and carry a lot of stuff in it, so I guess I just expect them to be heavy.
