Louis Vuitton Bags

I frequently repair Louis Vuitton bags. They are excellent quality, last absolutely forever and are fun to work with. In fact, of all the designer bags I have worked with, Louis Vuitton is the one maker who uses only high quality materials.

This Neverfull came to me needing a complete overhaul. The customer decided on black leather instead of the original natural, and it came out beautifully. I remade everything: handles, binding, side cinch laces, D-ring straps, etc.

Motorcycle Seat Cover

I remade this sheepskin motorcycle seat cover for a great guy who was rebuilding his dad’s bike. The new one is even better than the original.

Bag Restoration

This old bag was in need of some love. I took everything apart, resewed the pockets on the inside, oiled the dried out leather, and rebuilt all the straps. I then hand sewed the entire bag back together so this family heirloom can be enjoyed for many years to come.

Belt Resizing

I resize belts every week, often for free. If you just need to have a hole punched, I am happy to do that at no charge. If you need to have a belt made smaller by 2 inches or more, I can usually move the buckle to accomplish that without adding holes. I can also resize more complicated belts like this one.

Edging Touch-ups

The handles on this Louis Vuitton bag has an edging product that had come off and needed to be touched up. I was able to match the original color to affect a beautiful repair.

Unfortunately, this type of edging is not very durable. Most bag manufacturers use this product, and it always fails. This is why I don’t use it on my products. But I can fix others’ bags.
