SoleHeeled offers convenient and affordable Louis Vuitton handbag repairs by Australia’s best craftsmen, with free shipping to your door. This case study outlines how we recently repaired a customer’s Louis Vuitton handbag.
The handbag
A leather tab at the end of on one of this Louis Vuitton tote’s straps had torn right off. This tab is stitched into the body of the bag and comes with a buckle connecting the strap to the body of the bag. When this customer reached out to us for a free diagnosis/quote, we offered to replace the torn leather tab with an entirely new one.
Leather strap repair
We first unstitched and removed the old leather tab and then used it as a reference in cutting by hand to correct size and shape a new tab out of a fresh piece of brown leather similar to the existing. We then stitched this new leather tab into place, along with the original buckle to be used in connecting the strap.

This Louis Vuitton Neverfull had seen better days, with the leather binding and strapping visibly worn and the monogram canvas around the bottom corners worn through. We replaced the leather parts and altered the bag to remove the damaged canvas.
