The straps on these Louis Vuitton sandals were peeling. Since the original straps were beyond restoration, we replaced them with a pair of entirely new leather straps.
This Hermès Garden Party tote bag was in need of a thorough clean and colour restoration, due to the accumulation of dirt and marks on the canvas and the loss of colour on the corners of the leather base. We cleaned and conditioned the canvas and leather before recolouring / refinishing the discoloured leather.
The uppers, soles and heels on these Christian Louboutin Daviol dress shoes were looking a little worn, with the leather uppers needing rejuvenation and the soles and heels having lost their signature red colour. We cleaned, conditioned and polished the leather uppers before installing a pair of thin rubber sole and heel protectors.
The leather woven through the chain strap on this Chanel bag was heavily worn, with discolouration and tears in several areas. We replaced the woven leather with an entirely fresh, stronger Kangaroo leather in a matching colour.
The heel blocks on these Sophia Webster Rosalind sandals were just a little too tall for the wearer. We shortened the heels for the customer, making the shoes much more comfortable.
The zipper on this Gucci handbag had broken, with missing teeth preventing the bag from being zipped shut. We removed the old zipper and replaced it with an entirely new one, retaining the original zipper pull.
These Church’s Oslo derby shoes were brand new with unprotected leather soles that were therefore susceptible to quickly wearing down with everyday wear. We protected the soles by installing a pair of thin rubber sole protectors.
The piping around the bottom corners of this Prada Galleria tote handbag had torn right off, leaving the metallic spring interior exposed. We repaired the piping, using thin leather patches to seal up the tears and reinforce the piping.
The piping on one of the corners of this Gucci Soho disco bag was torn, with the outer layer of leather worn through. We repaired and reinforced the piping by covering the damaged area with a thin leather patch.
These Bally Janelle loafers were brand new with unprotected leather soles. We installed a pair thin rubber half soles to protect the leather soles and offer greater traction to the wearer.
