Care + Repairs

Marks are like battle scars. This bag has been places, seen things, done things. You've not stayed on the sidelines; it's not stayed on the shelf.

maintenance + cleaning

Reproof annually to maintain water-resistance (or more frequently if a heavy user). Reproofing spray is available here.

Spot-clean with a damp clean cloth.

For stubborn marks use light soapy water. Air dry away from heaters and the sun. 

Machine washing is only an option for certain items that are Sage Green or Black and are without leather and do not have yellow lining. Reproofing will be neccessary after the bag has air-dried, to return water-resistance.

Please contact us if unsure of the best treatment for you bag, and we'll give you the best advice.

repairs

If your bag is in need of repair due to use, love and the general wear+tear of life — great! We absolutely love that you want to extend the life of your bag.

If you provide photos (and description) of the items requiring repair, we will happily advise and sell you the materials needed*. We recommend contacting local cobblers, upholsters or curtain-makers for repairs as they have the appropriate machines and skills for working with heavyweight materials. They should be able to offer a shipping-free solution and far quicker turnaround than our studio can offer.

To be clear, as of 1 Oct 2025, we are no longer able to offer in-house repairs.

(For those in the remote areas of the States, Cobblers Direct appears a helpful option.)

MANUFACTURING DEFECTS

If for any reason, your bag is not performing as it should due to manufacturing defect, we will (of course!) repair your bag as quickly as possible at no cost to you. If you feel this is the case, please email us with photos to explain your situation.
