FAQs

What is the best way to clean the leather?

Wipe the bag with a soft, dry cloth regularly. For more significant marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for cowhide leather, applying it sparingly with a soft cloth and testing on a hidden area first. Always allow the leather to air dry naturally.

Can this bag be used as a carry-on?

With dimensions of W51 x H35 x D26 cm, it is generally suitable as a carry-on for most airlines. However, it is recommended to verify the specific carry-on size restrictions with your airline before traveling.

How should I store the bag when not in use?

Store the bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It is best to keep it in its original dust bag and stuff it with soft paper or cloth to help it retain its shape.

What type of leather is used?

The bag is made from cowhide leather, known for its durability and ability to develop a unique patina over time with proper care.

Does the shoulder strap come off?

Yes, the shoulder strap is both adjustable and detachable, offering flexibility in how you choose to carry the bag.

Is the hardware prone to rust?

The hardware is brushed gold-tone and designed for durability. Like most metal finishes, it can be susceptible to tarnishing over time, but it is not typically prone to rust if kept dry.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or snagging

Gently rub a graphite pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth of the zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a good quality leather conditioner following the product's instructions. Ensure the bag is clean before conditioning.

Hardware is tarnished

Gently polish the brushed gold-tone hardware with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn tarnish, a specialized metal polish designed for brass or gold-tone finishes can be used very carefully, avoiding contact with the leather.

Strap buckle is difficult to adjust

Ensure the strap is flat and not twisted. If stiff, a small amount of leather conditioner applied to the edges of the strap near the buckle might help.

Care:
