I bought a base shaper for my cerf & it does nothing for the slouchiness....I was disappointed :(

I don't get bothered much by the slouchy look too. But I do prefer it more structured. So I wear a base shaper on mine and therefore doesn't stay slouchy. So I guess anyone concerned about the slouchiness can prevent it by using a base shaper too. It's such a great bag and I get compliments for it often ☺️

Hi dannii, I also bought a base shaper (from "Designer Base Shaper") but it does not help in the slouchiness... i wrote to the shop and they say that the base shaper only helps in supporting the base and not the sides. Well, ok it does make sense.

Can I check with you where you got bought your shaper from...?

I bought mine off eBay a while ago. But on one side of the bag I use cardboard which my husband measured up for me off a black gift box I had. It still does the job. I don't use my base shapers on the base of the bag though. I use them on the sides of the bags (so where the cc logo pocket is & in the same pocket at the back of the bag is where I place the 2nd base shaper). It definently works and makes a difference. My friends bag was slouchy and she uses 1 now and has made a difference for her bag too

I love the bag so much. If you keep the structure you will love it too! You can't go wrong. And like I mentioned, this way of using base shapers definently helps with not letting the bag be slouchy. Even a magazine on each of the side pockets could work too
