Kate Spade Loop Shoulder Bag - Purple

No, machine washing will destroy the suede material and the structure of the bag.

The strap features a fixed knot design intended to sit comfortably on the shoulder, and it is not adjustable.

Suede can fade if left in direct sunlight for extended periods; it is recommended to store the bag in a shaded area.

The slouchy half-moon design is best suited for daily essentials and may not comfortably accommodate larger electronics like tablets.

Use a high-quality suede-specific protector spray, applying it sparingly and in a well-ventilated area before first use.

Lightly dampen the entire affected area with a very fine mist of water, blot with a clean cloth, and let it dry naturally to maintain uniform texture.

Use a soft, dry suede-specific brush to gently sweep away particles in one direction.

Rub a small amount of clear candle wax or a graphite pencil tip along the zipper teeth to lubricate them.

Do not use water; instead, use a designated suede eraser to gently buff the area, then brush the nap back into place.
