Product Information
Full details
The OSPREY LONDON Collier Tote is a sophisticated, A4-compatible leather bag designed for the professional woman or student who values both elegance and everyday functionality. Crafted from high-quality Grainy Hide leather, this bag offers a structured silhouette that stands on its own, providing a clean and organized look for your daily commute or office environment. While its minimalist design is a key aesthetic benefit, potential users should note that the open-tote style requires careful management of smaller loose items to prevent them from shifting inside the main compartment.

FAQs
Can I fit my 15-inch laptop in the Collier Tote?
While the bag is A4-compatible, a 15-inch laptop may be too wide. It is better suited for 13-inch laptops or tablets.
Is the leather genuine?
Yes, the Collier Tote is crafted from high-quality Grainy Hide leather.
What should I do if the leather gets stained?
Address stains immediately with a damp (not soaking) cloth. For stubborn stains, consult a professional leather cleaning service.
Does the bag come with a shoulder strap?
The bag features two long, fixed shoulder handles designed for carry-over-the-shoulder comfort; it does not come with an additional cross-body strap.
How do I store the bag when not in use?
Use the included dust bag and store it in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the leather's structural integrity.
Troubleshooting
The leather surface looks dry or dull.
Apply a small amount of neutral leather cream or conditioner using a soft, lint-free cloth to restore moisture and shine.
The zip closure feels stiff or catches.
Rub a small amount of clear beeswax or a graphite pencil lead along the teeth of the zipper to lubricate the mechanism.
Light scratches appear on the Grainy Hide.
Gently rub the area with a soft cloth in a circular motion; the natural oils in the leather often help buff out minor surface scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Grainy Hide leather in optimal condition, avoid exposing the bag to harsh sunlight or moisture for extended periods. If the bag gets wet, wipe it gently with a dry, soft cloth and allow it to air dry naturally away from heat sources. When not in use, always store the Collier Tote inside the provided protective dust bag to prevent dust accumulation and potential scratches from other items. Should you need to clean the leather, use a high-quality, neutral leather conditioner tested on a small, inconspicuous area first. The A4-compatible size is perfect for standard laptops up to 13-14 inches and documents folders, but do not overload the bag with excessive weight, as this can stretch the leather handles over time.
