Cleaning kipling bags

[Deathraystare]

Hi - anyone any idea how to clean a mucky Kipling bag. It is the Cyrille - so a canvas type material (I think). I tried baby wipes but it did not do much.

TIA

Ooh interested in this my kipling netta bag needs a wash it’s canvas as well....I was gonna chuck it in the washing machine on a cold wash and hope for the best

I have washed several in the washing machine on a cold, quick wash at low spin. They've come out clean and are fine.

I wash my Kipling bags in the machine
Take off the monkey (if you havent already done so )
I haven't washed the strap but I would if it was mucky.

I turn mine inside out (double check all the pokets for rubbish or a forgotten £10) and put in a laundry bag in case any zip fasteners get lost in the machine.
Cool wash ,

Mine have always turned out lovely .

I love the things you find out on mn
I have a Kipling bag that’s looking a bit grubby- never occurred to me to put it in the machine

I put all mine in the machine, always come out great

I too put mine in the machine, cool wash, low spin. Had one about 15 years and still looks like it did when I bought it.

Yep, washing machine

Thanks so much lovely ladies! Sorry for the delay but I am not on the 'net at home so had to wait until I was next in work.

I will definitely try this (and take the plastic monkey off first!

Ok you luvverly laydeez - I washed my bag and it came up luvverly!

Thanks!

Mine go in the machine too. I just wish I could dye the bloody thing!

I dyed one. It came out fine.

Was it in the usual nylon material or a canvas one Toofle?
I have one i've been thinking about dyeing for years but never braved it.

It's very pink.

I bunged mine in the laundry, monkey, straps and all, 40 degrees and a 1600rpm spin. It came out like new.

BFB, you have nothing to lose but your fear. The one I dyed is older and normal nylon. It was a mauvy colour and I dyed it pink, in the machine. Not glamorous I admit. But better than before.

Hi all, just found this thread and it gave me the confidence to wash my second hand Kipling bag (stunk of smoke and what I can only describe as a 'festival'!)
It's a Seoul laptop bag, brought for £10! I washed it on a 15 min wash, 400 spin and used 'the pink stuff' to wash it with. It came out amazing, just like new.

My photo didn't attach, but here's the Seoul backpack after washing. Smells beautiful now :D

Thanks guys. I've had a little pot of ketchup burst in my poor handbag. It's lovely to get all of you great responses and advice on here regarding my kippling handbag. You are all 🌟 x
