Question

What do you use to clean nylon bags?

Community Answer

First try baby wipes, or a damp towel and mild soap. Most nylon Le Pliage bags can handle machine washing as described above, but some lines have more delicate leather handles that could fade or wear.

Question

I washed my bag and now it's covered in air bubbles. How do I remove these bumps?

Community Answer

A defect in 2006 Le Pliage bags causes the lining to separate and bubble. The only "home fix" is to temporarily flatten it with a dry iron and starch powder. Other Longchamp bags made from bonded leather may also blister; you can try a leather fill product for those.

Question

How do I remove makeup from the outside of the bag?

Community Answer

Use a soap that is mild and free of dyes or perfumes. Do not let water spill onto the leather portions of the bag. Water can damage leather. You can clean both the outside and inside of the bag using soap and water.

Question

Can I machine wash my Longchamp bag that has leather handles?

Community Answer

The official Longchamp care instructions specifically caution against washing bags with leather components in the washing machine, as this could cause permanent damage to the look and feel of the leather.
