Great review! Although you´re not supposed to store your canvas and leather goods in boxes as it can dry out the material and can eventually lead to both cracking and molding.
Thank you! And thanks for the tip! Although I thought that only applied if you were storing the bags for long periods of time and not using them regularly?
Have you experienced peeling of the raw leather underneath the trim's stitching by the opening? On my bag, the backside has raw leather loose and peeking through. It starts from the center trim all the way to the side. It might be due to the trim's constant rubbing on the body. The front, where the plate is, does not have that condition on the trim.
bella4644 . First you MUST condition THE LEATHER TRIMS. Do it by using it “Apple leather care “ by amazon. It’s about 10 for both the cleaner and conditioner . Never clean first but condition the leather trims first . Wait 24 hours and then use bag. Clean the leather trims after you condition it real good and wait 24 hours . Cleaning it drys the leather trims . Beware. I only clean it after a few days of deep conditioning has been implemented. Otherwise cleaning the leather trim first before conditioning it will crack the leather . Beware!!
Because there were problems, LV will put a clear protective cover over the o-rings for free. Just call the store and they will fix it for you before it starts staining the leather.
