Lug Question

I have quite a few Lug bags, big and small. I love each of them.

Are they washable?????

Ami and the Lug reps don't actually advertise them as "washable", so I wouldn't put it in the machine- I would try to Spot clean it with a good stain remover or if really bad, I might hand wash it in my utility sink with hot water and a brush- If it's greasy, use an oil-based spot-remover... Hope it works!

I have some Lug bags @hick. I would spot clean only.

Yes, spot clean only or maybe in the sink with a bit of Woolite or something like that and air dry. I would only do that if somehow it got really soiled, other than that just a damp cloth. Her bags are made with material that is meant to be "wiped down".

@hick I watch a lot of those LugLives on their app, and hear them always say you can "spot clean", like with a detergent wipe cloth. I'm not sure it wouldn't leave a water mark though...I've yet to try that. Whatever I'd try that with would not be soaked with water.

I own several myself. I wouldn't put them in a washer, I don't think they're made to withstand that, and would probably not look the same after.

Are you talking usual day to day dirty or you got a stain?

These bags, depending on usage, probably have a relatively shorter shelf life than other bags. I've had and used some so far since 2020 and all good so far. Only my blush pink Swivel looks like over time would need cleaning. Wish I could replace it but it's no longer being made. It's one of my favorites and my go-to Spring bag.

Also, I'd just ask Customer Svc., directly, on Lug's site to see what they advise.
