Although our bags are built to last - Even the best things in life sometimes need a little love.  If your bag has exceeded it's 1 year warranty but the pleats are wearing out  - don't throw your bag away.  We can replace the pleats! We applaud you for choosing an option that is kinder for the planet.

Purchase this listing, to alert us that it's en route. We will send you a pre-paid USPS shipping label to send your bag to us.

BUT FIRST: 

Wash your bag  (we will NOT accept unwashed bags for repair. Unwashed bags will be returned at the owners expense):

    1. Empty the contents of the bag - check all the pockets.  We cannot be held responsible for items left inside of bags.
    2. Pull the lining to the outside.
    3. Vacuum out the inside bottom lining - this is where all the gunk collects and is the entry point that we will need to access to open your bag and repair it.
    4. Add a tablespoon of laundry soap to the washer.
    5. Throw your bag in the washing machine on gentle cycle (yes, we promise you won't hurt it a bit!)
    6. Hang it to dry. (Do not put your bag in the dryer or dry-clean.)

 

When your bag is clean and dry - attach the label to the outside of the box and hand to your USPS mail person.

Please allow 3 weeks for repairs.

It's like a brand new bag!

I purchased a shoulder bag with pleats from Crystalyn Kae nearly 10 years ago, and have used it daily. We've been through a lot together, me and this bag. I'm so glad that instead of throwing it away because of the wear, that I was able to have it repaired.

The amazing vegan leather has held up beautifully, but with so much use, the vintage fabric used in the pleats wore out. I continued to use it and eventually I wore it to shreds. Thankfully, Crystalyn offers repairs on the pleats, even 10 years later! I was nervous that with the amount of wear it perhaps would be unable to be repaired. Not the case! I had some beautiful upholstery weight vintage floral fabric in my stash, and though Crystalyn always has gorgeous fabrics to choose from, I was happy that I could send that along with my bag to be used. For my bag, the pleats were completely replaced. Its like a brand new bag! The entire process was exactly as it is stated in the listing and took just under 3 weeks.

Thank you for offering this sustainable option! I'm beyond thrilled with my repaired bag.
