natural characteristics
Variations in tone, texture and shading are not flaws: they are the fingerprint of the hide. Over time, scratches will soften, colours will deepen and the leather will settle into something unmistakably yours. These are not signs of wear. They are signs of life.

leather & hardware care
Water Exposure
Vegetable-tanned leather is not water-resistant. If the bag gets wet, gently blot the surface with a soft, dry cloth, absorbing as much moisture as possible without rubbing. Let it dry naturally at room temperature, away from radiators, direct heat and sunlight.
Cleaning & Stains
Full-grain, full culatta and raw culatta leathers can be nourished with a soft cotton cloth and a small amount of moisturizing cream, applied evenly across the entire surface; note that it may slightly darken the leather. Hand-dyed leathers are best cleaned with a small amount of glycerin soap, applied in the same way. On polished leathers, avoid creams and use only a soft, dry cloth. On reverse culatta, use only a soft suede brush, following the direction of the nap. In all cases, do not treat isolated stains directly, as this may fix or darken the mark rather than remove it.
Conditioning
Use only products suited to the specific leather, apply them sparingly and always test them on a hidden area first. Avoid oils and waxes, which may darken the surface or alter its colour and finish.
Hardware Care
Our hooks, rings, and buckles are hand-forged in wrought iron or brass. Keep them dry, wiping them with a soft cloth after damp days. Over time, the iron may darken naturally, in harmony with the leather.
Storage
When not in use, store the bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, ideally in a breathable cotton bag. Fill it lightly with paper to help it keep its shape, and avoid hanging it by the strap for long periods.
