We recommend always applying a waterproofing spray before use, and respraying your bag at least every four weeks. Choose a spray that is suitable for leather and suede.

Clean the bag using leather cleaning wipes when necessary, and let dry naturally.

After the first six months, and twice yearly after that, a leather conditioner can be applied and rubbed in with a soft, colourfast cloth. (Be sure to test on an inconspicuous place first).

The perfect tote!

I have been looking for a tote for such a long time, something lightweight and stylish to use for work and uni, and I finally found the perfect tote. The leather is so soft and the bag is well constructed. Customer service was amazing. Will definitely be purchasing some other colours.

Beautiful Tote

This is a beautiful tote bag, from the quality of the soft leather to the detail embedded in the construction. The service was excellent and the bag arrived promptly. I chose the tote in black with natural handles and gold hardware. Truly bespoke :-). Can’t wait to use it as I embark on my career shift. Thank you CM.
