I also suggest a cobbler or a horse-riding articles shop (selleria). They are used to work with leather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-for-a-purse#post-1994988 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 09:30:12 +0000 chirico (Chiara) 1994988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for your replies! I doubt conditioning would be enough, as the color has really faded in some areas. I will try to ask for re-dyeing, probably in a slightly darker red.<br /> Thanks for the suggestion to contact the manufacturer, Taylor. Who knows, they might help me... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-for-a-purse#post-1994637 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 18:00:16 +0000 taylor 1994637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing with those who mentioned dying .. a good shoe repair/cobbler could do that for you if you would rather not take it on yourself.<br /> I am not familiar with this brand but the manufacturer might dye it for you for a fee. You may want to contact them . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-for-a-purse#post-1994597 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 16:06:10 +0000 JAileen 1994597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve rehabbed many old Coach bags. Usually they’re really dry and faded looking. I use Lexol, which was recommended by Subaru for my car seats. I would use the leather cleaner and then the conditioner. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-for-a-purse#post-1994522 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 13:45:36 +0000 Janet 1994522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the dyeing suggestions. A darker color will hide the issues. Black, navy, dark brown, burgundy... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-for-a-purse#post-1994514 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 13:33:58 +0000 Glory 1994514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree trying a cleaner and conditioner first. If that doesn’t work you could speak to a cobbler about dying it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-for-a-purse#post-1994485 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 11:35:04 +0000 kkards 1994485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i would try a leather cleaner and conditioner.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-for-a-purse#post-1994478 Mon, 21 Jan 2019 10:50:36 +0000 Eva 1994478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you considered dying it, either in the same colour or a different one?<br /> Rae and ClearlyClaire (former forum members) did that successfully.

I have had this Pennyblack purse for about 8 years, and now it shows some heavy signs of discoloration.<br /> What do you suggest I could do? The bag is overall in good shape, the internal lining is intact. </p>
