Troubleshooting
Bag does not hold its shape well.
Stuff the bag with acid-free tissue paper or soft fabric when not in use to help maintain its structure.
Stains on leather are noticeable.
Consult a professional leather cleaning service specializing in handbags. Spot cleaning with mild soap and water might worsen the condition.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently rub a graphite pencil tip along the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this could cause damage.
Shoulder strap attachment points feel loose.
Inspect the hardware for any signs of damage. If the strap feels insecure, consider consulting a cobbler or leather goods repair specialist.
