Louis Vuitton website says to use a damp cloth and water no chemicals or cleaning agent so really this is the way forward
Great video! I was told by my SA at Louis Vuitton to just use water as well, so great advice!
Beautiful bag. I like how you take care of this bag. I have a back pack that is 20 years old. I just started cleaning it. Now it’s turning really nice now
so happy I seen this Gunna try it tonite on my 4 year old bag
Hi! for some reason I can't see other videos on your channel about bag cleaning & I tried to find the lock cleaning method... Love the patina champ method so thank you for sharing that!
Thanks for the tip. I have the exact same bag and has now had it for over 3yrs but only worn it out for maybe 8 outings because I'm so afraid of watermarks but it has patina very nicely. I am going to try using your water method than using in scented baby wipes that are chemical free. I do not treat my bags either. Thanks again
Hi its funny that you just commented on this video . I am actually uploading right now a 3 part video that I did today . It will show what my bags looked like before I cleaned them ,as I cleaned them ,and after they dried . They both look Amazing :* they should be up tonight :) let me know what you think. :) Thank you for your comments :) and don't worry about those water marks they will blend out when you clean them :) wear your bags and love them :) bye
I so appreciate this video. I have looked at many videos regarding caring for the Vachetta on the monogram bags. Thanks to this video I decided to use the method you described. I had thought for some reason water on leather was harmful to the Vachetta. After this video I’m clearly mistaken. 😀And to hear the LV associates said it’s the way to go. It’s a go! Thank you!!! Baby wipes bye bye....
Victoria thank you very much for the info you gave me. It clean my lock easily.
Your very welcome :)
wonderful video, thank you for the tips!
DsnyLuv your very welcome :)

Ninosny awwww thank u . I dont know why im just seeing this comment :( 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Your bag looks amazing
Gorgeous bag!!!!!
awww thank you 😆

awww thank you :)
Hi Victoria, there are some dark grey marks almost black looking on some parts of the leather trimmings. Will I be able make those disappear with this method?
It might. You can try. It depends on what is is . Also watch my sandpaper video. Thank you :)
How old is your bag and how many times you have done this ? Did you start it doing doing it because it was dirty or just to keep it clean all the time ? My azur speedy 35 it's 3 years old but the vachetta is still looking new because I don't wear the bag that much since I always grab other bags but my sister once use it and left the handles looking kinda grayish and I don't know what to do now cause if I wet then they will turn honey and they still kinda white I'm afraid to ruin the vachetta since it's almost looking new with grayish in the handles people doesn't notice but I do and it bothers me
Hello . my bag is a little over 5 years old :) I've did this every 2 to 3 months since the bag was brand new . I don't baby my bags and yes if you wet it it will turn a tiny bit of honey color but you will be surprised on how clean it will look. It wont hurt the bag but it will make it look even a pretty . Make sure you watch all the videos on how I clean the lv bags :) Thank you for your questions. let me know if you have ay more concerns . I am always here for you :)
Hi hello, thank u so much, now i know how to clean may LV bags
Godbless you...
Hi Victoria! I have one more question...are u using a brand new white sock? Does it have to be a sock or can it be a white towel or old white tshirt? THANK U!!!
Helen Tang hello Helen. I'm using a sock form my sock drawer lol. I like the sock cause it's thicker than a t-shirt. It feels more cushiony to me . it's just personal preference you can use anything white. 😍😍😍😍😍 Have an Awesome day 😁
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! SUPER HELPFUL!!! When did you start cleaning it with water, like after the first time you used the bag? I just bought a new Graceful pm like a month ago, so I'm wondering when I should start cleaning the handles. I only use my bag on the weekends. Also what do you polish it with? was is it another sock?
Helen Tang I started cleaning my bags about 3 months in and I clean them now about every three to six months depending on how often I use them. And I polish them with another dry sock. Thank you for for your nice comments. Congratulations on your new bag😍
Helen Tang I also have another recent video that I did showing what the handles look like now😍😍😍😍😍
Hello Victoria. I just watched your video on how to clean your bag. thank you for sharing, it was a great video. How do you keep your lock nice and shiny? Mine has tarnished and I'm unsure why or how to clean it. thank you
@@yolandahernandez1507 lemon juice :)
Hi! The teddy bear key chain in the thumbnail - where did you get it, it's so cute! Thanks!
Saffit Gaynor his name is Arnold and I got him from Swarovski. He's like $89 I hope that helps. Thank you :)
wow and I was freaking out about getting my speedy 35 wet in the rain!
I have a video putting my bags in the rain 🌧🤣
such a great video!!!! :)
Thank you :)
Thank you for sharing! Love your videos
aww your welcome . I don't know why this comment wasn't in my notifications . :( Thank you for watching them . I'm glad you love them . Thank you :)
Your welcome
Hi Victoria. How did you removed the keys from the lock? Thanks
Lemon juice :)
Hi hunny I've a brand spanking new speedy 35 bandouliere....can I start this on the fresh vachetta ....thnk u X
Absolutely :) Sorry for the late response :( . I'm not sure why this comment wasn't in my notifications . Your so welcome :*
do you know if water would take ink mark off the leather?
no water would not work you might try a mr clean eraser very lightly :) let me know if that helps
Hi Victoria! I just purchased a speedy 30 (preloved) what do suggest to to brass it's pretty dingy and has green on the rivets? What do you think about using the saddle soap? I would greatly appreciate your suggestions. Thanks!!
Hi .I would use brass cleaner but don't touch Leather. I don't use saddle soap. Drys out bag. Also lemon juice will work on the brass but same thing don't to leather .use a qtip then wipe off any remaining lemon 🍋 with damp cloth 🥰congratulations on your new bag 🥰
Thanks! For such a quick response. Actually I thought it was a Speedy 30.. which is what I wanted and discovered it's a 35.🙄
I bought preloved bag and handles are very dark in handles almost black, should this method help to take the black off?
cristal silva you can try it it may remove some. I'm going to be uploading a video within the next couple days that will probably help you get rid of the black on your leather. I will message you when I do it. :) trying the water is not going to hurt it:)
Victoria thank you!!🙌🏼
Victoria did you end up posting this video? I can’t seem to find very many lv videos on your channel at all:(
Hi. What if I've never cleaned my bag? The handles are dark somewhat. Should I use a leather cleaner first or just use the water method? I have speedy 30 since 2012.
Same question
very nice video! i will try it out too because im using non alcohol wet wipes for my lv bags:-)TFS this video and have a nice one:-)...xoxo
awww thank you :)
When you put your bag next to a window in direct sun to tan, is there any worry about the canvas fading?
Deborah K I wear my bags all summer and the canvas looks the same. :) its coated cavas so im sure that helps. Also when i left it in the window it was only for a few hrs a few days :)
Can you just reiterate what to do when you have a brand new speedy b mono bag. I want to use it but wanted to follow your guidelines from the beginning. Thank you!
Yes. Also You can also look up the patina champ on the purse forum. It will explain everything 😍
Brianna Bender hi sorry it took me a couple days to get back to you. When I bought my bag I just tanned it in the window a couple hours a day for about 2 weeks. I turned it frequently. Then I did the patina champ method on it about every 3 months until it started getting a beautiful golden patina. Now I just do the patina champ method on it every six months or pretty much as often as it's needed. Hope this helps you thanks so much😍 I also store my bags in my closet on the bottom 😍
Hi Victoria can you tell me how to tan my new artsy
I would tan it in a window 😁
Hi, thanks so much for this video, I just got my first LV a few days ago and the method you use is what I feel most comfortable with in terms of maintaining and caring for my bag..I know you mentioned you tan the leather before you clean it, how long as in how many hours at a time and for how many days should a tan it before doing this?
gigiCHIC i would tan it 1 hr a day for at least 2 weeks. The more you tan it the darker it will get so keep that in mind :) to get my look 1 hr is perfect for 2 weeks then just regular wear. 😍hope this helps u . ♡ Victoria
+Victoria ok, thanks so much!
Hi! I can’t find your original video. But I found your thread on TPF.
When I lay the purse out, does it need to be in direct sunlight? Or can it just be day light sun. Haha I don’t have an area in my house that gets direct sunlight.
Hi Daylight sun. I'll make sure the original video gets back up :) thank you
Victoria thank you so much! You’re amazing!!!!
Hi, how did you tan your bag? Thanks
Ellen P i just put it next to a window with direct sunlight and I turn the bag around every half hour. I just left my bag there for a couple days like that.😍😍😍😍
Danke für das Video, ich werde diese Methode auch ausprobieren, die speedy ist wunderbar
Claudia Brei ich danke dir sir sehr. 😍
I just bought a used bag. The vachetta looks nice and still on the lighter side. I’m not sure if the previous owner used any product on the vachetta. Would this method be safe regardless of what might have been previously used?
kkbipswich yes this method is perfect :) if she did use anything it will just slowly be removed with the water method 😁 congratulations in your Bag 💕
just a question, if water does not mark your bag then how this other watermarks issue on other lv bags? new subbie here
Aileen Lapira Hi . Thank you for your question. Its the tanning that makes the leather not so new (on the brand new light vachetta leather it is near impossible to blend in the water spots ) its the cleaning with the wet sock that blends any waterspots in. at least this has been my experience. so water would spot my leather if i hadnt tanned and cleaned my bag. i hope this make sense. ive just had such great experience with my cleaning method over the last 6 years that its the only thing i trust . i will be doing a video on both bags really soon as i havent cleaned them since the last videos. it will show the wear and dirt that is on them .then it will show the cleaning and after they are dry . :) let me know if u have any more questions:) Thank you for subscribing 😄
Can you use a wash cloth? thank u
Don Malo absolutely you can . I just use a sock because it softer😍
Thanks so much for the reply. Just wondering if you could help... Is it possible to scrub the bag too hard with the cloth to cause it to darker or lose color? I may have mistakenly did this in an area on my Josh T_T
It was a very soft cloth. Lol I was rubbing hard because there was some sort of spillage in the area. It may also be that the bag is cleaner in that area than the rest as I scrubbed more , and maybe I just need to correct the entire bag. I ask because I want to know if I'm doing damage before I do the entire thing!.. Thanks alot again
Don Malo i dont think you can scrub too hard. It might make that area lighter but the the patina will slowly even out again :) I will be doing a pretty informative video on your question soon:) 😁
Thank u
wow very nice of you for sharing this tip i hope this tip will be great for my friend cho1967 speedy
awww thank you again :) I watch all Cho1967 Videos :) I love them
thank you also for all your reply on my comments, i do also hope to share a video of me holding my dream bag LV Speedy 30 i love watching this kind of videos. in the future maybe. have a great day
Do you Apple Guard your bags?
Laurie Mandeville no :)
I do & it stops the rain penetrating the leather. I also use this water & sock method to clean. On my vintage bags I use Cadillac shoe & boot conditioner and it hydrates the LV leather with no darkening. Stops the vachetta cracking on vintage bags.
Mi Ears can you share where we can buy the cleaner for the vintage bags. I just bought one and its a bit dirty. I would like to buy and try this method.
Is this vintage?
Its like 11 years old why?
@@daisymayla ☺️ I was just wondering since you were washing it. Usually I only see videos like this with people washing them when they’re vintage not extremely new. I didn’t know if I missed you saying the age.
It’s beautiful by the way. 💛
Sugar calcium??? LOL
Metsasusi .It should have been sugar or calcium buildup . That is too funny ;)
Victoria don't worry 😊 I like your bag and you are doing a good job with it.
Enjoyed your video. We as watchers really appreciate the how to's but also should treat vachetta at our own risk😊. I'm surprised the VERY opinionated vachetta advocate hasn't commented something mean😏FYI if she does find your video, you'll know who she is. Just ignore her🙃
Hello , Im glad you liked the video. Thank you for your comment. I dont mind everyone has thier own opinion and sees light in a different way :) Have a great week :)
Catherine J. Are you talking about me? Lol! Actually, I agree with this person. No lotions should be put on the leather. As you know, Vachetta leather is untreated leather. So anything applied to it, is just absorbed. Some chemicals do more damage then help. Thank you Catherine for the shout out! Nice that you remember me. Thank you!♡♡♡ P.S. Although, I remember the nasty things you wrote to me. Don't act all angelic now!
So what about watermarks the whole thing confuses me would you explain that please the whole vatchetta thing
Nate Moffett doing this will even out the water spots :) The vachetta is the untreated leather that Louis Vuitton uses and it naturally gets darker over time . if you wipe it with water it'll even out any spots and remove any dirt making the leather more even. hope that helps.
Victoria yes thank you that makes sense I had an ebene bag cause it's so much easier but love the look of a monogram speedy
