FAQs
Can I use both straps at the same time?
Yes, you can attach both the leather and woven guitar straps simultaneously for a layered, contemporary look.
What is Grainy Hide leather?
Grainy Hide is a premium leather type known for its visible texture and soft, supple hand-feel, often chosen for its durability and aesthetic appeal.
How do I clean the woven strap?
The woven strap can be spot-cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap; ensure it is completely dry before reattaching it to the bag.
Does the bag hold its shape when empty?
Due to the soft, supple nature of the leather, it will slouch slightly when not filled, which is characteristic of the hobo bag style.
Is the bag suitable for rainy weather?
While the leather is high quality, it is not waterproof. If it gets wet, pat it dry immediately and let it air dry naturally away from heat sources.
Where should I store the bag when not in use?
Always store the bag in the included dust bag in a dry environment to prevent dust accumulation and maintain the integrity of the leather.
Troubleshooting
Strap clasps feel stiff
Apply a tiny amount of silicone-based lubricant to the hinge of the clasp and work it in to improve ease of movement.
Leather looks dull
Use a high-quality, clear leather conditioner specifically formulated for grain leather to restore hydration and shine.
Surface scuff marks
Gently rub the area with a soft microfiber cloth; the natural oils in the leather often buff out minor surface scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To configure the Stella Hobo, simply attach the desired strap to the side hardware rings; the lobster-claw clasps allow for quick transitions between the leather and woven options. For long-term care, store the bag in the provided dust bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or fading. If the leather encounters moisture, gently blot with a soft, dry cloth—do not rub. Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, perfumes, or excessive heat, as these can alter the texture and color of the Grainy Hide finish.
