Water stains on Kooba bags
It drizzled the other day and a few drops went on my bag and now there are stains on it! W T F??????????? Is that normal? Are they going to fade eventually? The bag already has a vintage look to it and with these stains it looks crappy!

Re: Water stains on Kooba bags
That's really weird. Is it the new light one you have? I wear mine in the rain all the time. But it's darker, so maybe it happens but is not noticable.

Yup, the light light one...the same thing happened with my Dooney tote, the handles are really light and they started to get darker but you could see everything on them...water drops and all...ughtthis $ucks. I mean its not dark and not that noticeable bu you could see them once you look at it

The same thing happens to the leather handles on LV bags if you're not careful with them. Water spots are so frustrating!

Ok so what happens after you get the water stains? Do they eventually fade?

I really think it's the color. See how it looks in a few days. It may fade. Then I *think* you can put some sort of sealer on the leather. You rub it over the leather.

They eventually blend in once the handles turn that dark brown honey color, but it takes a long time depending on how often you use the bag
