Best materials for rain, snow, and bad weather

• Grained or pebbled leather
• Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene
• Louis Vuitton Epi Leather
• Louis Vuitton Empreinte Leather
• Chanel Caviar leather
• Prada Saffiano Leather
• Goyard Canvas
• Hermes Epsom or Clemence Leather

I suggest researching material before deciding on a style of bag. The best bags for winter weather are made of coated canvas (without natural leather), nylon and embossed leathers like Caviar leather, Saffiano leather, Epi leather, and pebbled leather. Ideally, water will wick off the material and roll off your bag, leaving everything in your bag clean and dry.


Tips for carrying your purse in bad weather

-Dry your bag off with a clean towel when you get inside.
-Tuck your bag under your coat.
-Carry a reusable nylon bag to cover your bag with or invest in a handbag raincoat.
-Leave your Chanel Lambskin Flap bag at home if it’s raining!
DO NOT carry natural vachetta leather, untreated natural leather, lambskin leather or box leather in the rain!!!!
-Don’t get upset if you get stuck in the rain with your bag!
-Leather is very resilient–and remember, it’s just water.
