What RM's are you anxiously awaiting to arrive at your door? Pt 2!

Oh I love and have had all of those bags! I still have a Treesje and some LP. Generally I just clean them if needed and condition them. I just got some conditioner I really like by "Chemical Guys". Just test whatever you want to use somewhere on the bag before you use it, and for color restoration I try to stick to shoe creams by Tarrago or Kelly's.

if you can advise me how to use shoe cream to somewhat restore the color I would appreciate it immensely.

my pink cupid is glazed leather....the cleaner/conditioner doesn't penetrate...it's ok - just a bag with some wear

What is this one called. I'm such a sucker for deep green hue 🤣🤣🤣🤣

 

[sdkitty]

Not really any specific bag in mind. Leather bags in general. RMs, Treesje, Bulga, Kooba, Linea Pelle- those types of leather bags 😁 I got 70 bags in my closet 🤣🤣🤣

you obviously have a very large closet....good for you but that many bags would be overwhelming for me

Thank you! I'll try "Chemical Guys". I think I just need to condition them from time to time. Nothing I have right now needs restoration 😁... when I needed some restoration for a couple of my bags that apparently served as scratching boards for my cat, I went to Leather Spa here in New York. VERY expensive. However, the job was done well. I do have two Junior Drake bags where color is starting to rub off, and with the sun too, it's turning purple leather into brownish shade of purple. Those two I love because of their insanely cute design, I really could trash them, not like there is a shortage of bags in my closet 🤣 I might try that cream you mention because the just dont warrant expensive restoration.

Tarrago (they have many colors) will definitely help.
