Your Rimowa is more than just luggage — it’s an icon of style that travels the world with you. But flights, rough handling, and impacts leave their marks: dents, scratches, worn and peeling leather corners. Leather Studio in Los Angeles will restore your suitcase to flawless condition.
Classic aluminum Rimowa suitcases (Original, Classic, Topas) combine a sturdy metal shell with elegant leather details — handles and corner guards. These leather corners suffer the most: they wear down, crack, darken, or peel off. Meanwhile, the aluminum becomes covered in a web of fine scratches and loses its mirror-like shine.
We restore both materials while preserving Rimowa’s authentic look.
Dent Removal. Carefully straightens the shell without aggressive force, preserving factory geometry.
Scratch Removal. Sands the surface to eliminate fine and medium damage.
Anodized Finish Restoration (optional). Brings back the signature metallic sheen (silver, matte black, titanium).
Factory-Level Polishing. Final finishing that restores the suitcase’s premium appearance.
Deep Leather Cleaning. Removes dirt, hand oils, and travel grime embedded in the pores.
Leather Corner Color Restoration. Matches the exact shade (black, dark brown, tobacco, etc.) and redyes worn areas and scuffs.
Crack & Delamination Repair. Fills cracks with a flexible compound and reinforces weakened corners.
Replacement (optional). If leather corner guards are beyond repair — we can replace them with new ones identical to the original Rimowa.
Protective Finish. Applies a topcoat resistant to moisture, temperature changes, and friction during transport.
The Rimowa shell is smooth, shiny, and free of dents and scratches.
Leather corners and handles look like new — no wear, cracks, or darkening.
The suitcase looks well-maintained and luxurious — either preserving its “lived-in” patina or appearing completely new (your choice).
