Why PU Lining Was Perfect for Chanel’s Travel Line

Why is the lining on my vintage backpack and travel bags generally made of PU (Polyurethane) synthetic material?

The lining on your vintage backpack and voyage ligne is generally made of PU (Polyurethane) synthetic material because backpacks and other bags like duffel bags, toiletry cosmetic bags, and the supermodel tote (a term used by resellers for this travel bag) are used for camping, school, outdoor activities, and travel. PU is the perfect choice because it’s durable, water- and spill-resistant, makeup-resistant and easy to clean, making it an excellent choice for the interior lining.

Chanel doesn’t use PU (Polyurethane) synthetic material for any bag interiors now because the brand’s vision has shifted towards using more expensive, high-quality materials targeting the “elites”.
