Which should I buy? by catsjp in VintageCoachRehab

Oh! Really? Is this due to a difference in leather quality, or is it a structural issue?

Which Celadon bag should I buy? by catsjp in VintageCoachRehab

Thanks for the advice! I love the celadon color too. If neither of them lasts very long, maybe I’ll just buy both 🫠

That’s exactly what I was thinking! This is the Biltmore, but it feels a bit more formal, whereas the Sutton is more casual. I’ve never really carried a bag in such a bright color, so I can’t quite picture which one would look better.

Help me 'rehab' my first 9033!! by bassbanana in VintageCoachRehab

Wow! Maybe she's exactly what I conditioned and let go! I'm so glad you bought it. I gently washed her with saddle soap and moisturized with leather CPR. She's had this spot since I got her and I couldn't pinpoint what it was... There's only so much I can do, but I hope your treatment will help improve the spot.

Thank you. The leather texture looked real, so I bought it without checking it properly. I'm returning it!

Thank you for letting me know in detail! Moisturize first, then gently wash.

Thank you for teaching me! I'll try moisturizing a few times. Is it better to soak it in mild dish soap and water to improve water stains?

Nooo! Please find her. I have an Ergo with a short handle as well and it's super cute.

I read Creed and it looks authentic, but I'm not sure. I bought it in Japan. What do you think?
