Product Information
Full details
The Howard London Washbag Ken is a premium leather toiletry organizer designed for the modern traveler who prioritizes both aesthetic appeal and structural durability. It is an ideal companion for frequent flyers and weekend adventurers who need to keep their grooming essentials tidy, though its structured rectangular shape may take up more fixed space in a crowded carry-on compared to soft-sided fabric alternatives.

FAQs
Can this washbag fit a standard electric shaver?
Yes, the 26 cm length is designed to accommodate most standard electric shavers and grooming kits.
Is the leather water-resistant?
While the leather is high-quality, it is not waterproof. It is best to wipe off any accidental water splashes immediately.
How many compartments does it have?
It features three main storage areas: a spacious main compartment, a secure inner compartment, and an accessible outer zip compartment.
Will the brass hardware tarnish?
Antique brass may develop a natural patina over time, which is part of its intended aesthetic.
Is the bag foldable?
No, the Howard London Washbag Ken features a structured rectangular design to maintain its shape.
Can I clean the inside of the bag?
The interior can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure it is fully air-dried before packing items again.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close
Apply a small amount of clear candle wax or graphite to the zipper teeth to improve movement.
Leather looks dry or dull
Apply a small amount of leather-specific conditioner with a soft cloth and buff gently.
Spillage inside the main compartment
Wipe the interior lining immediately with a damp cloth and leave the bag open in a well-ventilated area until completely dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required for this washbag; simply organize your items by frequency of use. To maintain the integrity of the leather, store the bag in a cool, dry place when not in use. If the exterior gets dirty, wipe it gently with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. For long-term care, applying a neutral leather conditioner periodically will keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Avoid overstuffing the bag, as excessive pressure on the zippers can strain the hardware over time.
