#StayAtHome: Longchamp's guide to care for your bags

Although we are staying at home, it doesn't mean you can neglect your bags

When was the last time you took out the bag from its dust bag to give them a breath of fresh air?

While it may seem trivial because of #WFH, bag care is an important step to bear in mind, in order to give your prized bags longevity, and so that you may prolong their pristine condition. What's more, Longchamp is here to save the day with a simple care guide for your beloved bags.

So, why not spare some time during this Circuit Breaker month to check and make sure you are storing your bags the right way?

To guarantee the longevity of your leather bags, it is recommend that you follow a few simple rules:

Avoid all contact with oily substances, and products containing solvents or alcohol (perfume, for example).
Avoid extended exposure to bright light.
For dark-coloured items, avoid prolonged contact with light-coloured fabrics, especially in a humid environment.

For light-coloured items, avoid extended contact with other materials - particularly items with prints or materials such as denim, whose colours may rub off.
Invest a dehumidifier should your storage place is deemed humid.
Ensure the bag stuffing remains in the bag to avoid the bag goes out of shape especially for soft and slouchy materials.

To prolong the lifespan, it is important to keep your bag in a cool, dry spot.
When not in use, store your bag in a dust bag.
Remember to use a soft cloth when you want to clean your bags from dust and dirt.

Different materials may require different care instructions, you may refer to the Care section at the respective product page
