  • From Coach: "This vintage Pocket Purse is a beloved Coach silhouette first introduced in 1986." And WOW did it need some work! Thankfully, it cleaned up very nice. Watch how I restored this beauty using tried-and-true leather restoration techniques.
    My favorite restoration so far has been a GUCCI bag made of SUEDE!

    I absolutely LOVE the vintage Coach bags. They’re so elegant and timeless, and they were built to last. I’m so glad you put in the time to restore this timeless classic. I wish that Coach went back to that for their handbags instead of trying to be trendy. The quality of their modern bags are not the same as their vintage bags.

      In addition to practicality and aesthetics, *preluxscom* bags also focus on user comfort. Its shoulder straps are made of high-quality materials, which are soft and comfortable and will not put a burden on your shoulders. At the same time, it also has excellent wear resistance, stain resistance and waterproof performance, allowing you to use it with peace of mind in any environment.

      @AngelicaKing-xq8ie Před 20 dny

      Spending $20,000 on a tote bag is the obvious choice, rather than spending $200 on a *condup* bag and investing the remaining $19,800 since a $20,000 bag is unlikely to increase in value.

    I found this bag at Goodwill for $4.00. I put it in my washer with a little Dove body wash on the gentle cycle because it was so dirty I felt I had little to lose. Let it air dry for three days then conditioned and polished it. It turned out beautifully! I love vintage Coach!

    You inspired me to look for a City Bag myself and clean/restore it. I found one that was in pretty good condition, I didn't need to do too much but a cleaning and conditioning. However, not knowing what this bag held, I decided to wash it fully like you did here. I used Lexol Leather cleaner instead of Dawn. MAN, was it gross - while the bag looked decent enough, what came out in the wash was a heavy brownish pinkish fluid. It took me 7 - 8 rinses to get it to run clear. It's drying on my deck (out of sunlight) now with towels stuff in there to soak up the moisture. Thank you for making these videos, so nice to learn how to restore a nice leather piece.

  • @epona9166
    @epona9166 Před rokem +55

    Great video! Just a few observations regarding a potential rehab bag. This bag was a perfect rehab candidate, being in excellent condition in several important ways. One is that the stitching was completely tight. There were no loose or broken stitches. Another is the piping was not especially worn. It's not unusual for vintage Coach bags to have piping that is worn completely through, especially in vulnerable areas. Some of the bags are constructed to stand up on their own (this one is not) so the bottom piping would tend to be worn. This bag also didn't have any stains that had to be removed. That has always been my biggest problem. I've never been able to do that. This makes me want to try another one. Thanks so much!

    Thank you, this is a great video and gave me the courage to deep clean all my leather Coach purses. It will make me spot clean them every time I put them away going forward. For cleaning the brass and stitching, I used two toothbrushes and Wenol for brass and the cleaning solution for stitching. Any other ideas?
