I’m extremely happy with the result of the trim. And that’s where time and patience come in. All have signs of wear but none are damaged. Of all the three LV bags I’ve acquired none were over $275. While I realize that there is a great demand for used luxury bags-especially Louis Vuitton, selling a bag that is torn, ripped, has handles broken or severely cracked leather does not a bargain make. Most used bags are ridiculously and unfairly overpriced.
Currently, I am trying to complete my LV collection with a vintage/preloved Noe bag but the pickins are slim. Even “vintage” and “pre-loved” can be overpriced. Here’s Mike Zinar and his magic! Owner of Roxborough Shoe Repair, he’s been doing this in the family business for decades! He needs a NY Giants shirt though!Īnd if you are in need for any leather repair, whether or not you live in the Philly area (you can mail your goods to him), here’s the contact information!īut the thing about the Vuitton purses is they are pricey. Mike Zinar, the owner of Roxborough Shoe Repair repaired my bag’s trim perfectly and did a stellar job on my shoes! I’m telling you a great shoe and bag repairman is just as good as finding a good physician! Crew suede flats that I just about destroyed back in November after traipsing around in the Paris rain for three days.Īlthough the bag was in great shape, the trim was a mess. I dropped, not only the bag, but a pair of suede Made-in-Italy, old J. In perusing the local, Philadelphia area leather repair shops I came across Roxborough Shoe Repair. There was no way I could have made an attempt to replace the trim myself and I had to outsource.
A vintage, pre-loved LV Bucket GM!Īnd even with my semi-handy work, the bag’s trim was deteriorating. The LV Neverfull bag that Bonaparte bought me for my birthday last year has a buddy. Here’s a look at the post I wrote about fixing up the Bucket GM that I purchased: I did Another Thing.
Quite old and one, in particular has been discontinued. Prior to this pandemic I refurbished a few Louis Vuitton bags that I purchased used. I don’t know if I’ll have the patience to deal with parking spaces at shopping centers after this is over!
Or is it that our shopping habits have changed? As we continue with our new normal of malls being closed and local businesses hopefully reopening and not going under, boutiques and small shops on hiatus, we haven’t been shopping as much as we used to.
