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).

Love this bag!

I have been looking at these bags for about 12 months but could not decide what to go for as there are so many beautiful designs! I finally settled on this tote when my work bag needed replacing and there just happened to be a sale. I was looking for something that would fit my laptop (14 inch) and be able to fit other items for everyday use. My laptop does fit but note there is no laptop section, so I do use a sleeve to protect it from other items.
The purchasing experience was easy - delivery within expected timeframe. The bag itself was boxed beautifully and the smell of the leather was divine (and still is). I have never owned a softer leather bag and I just love it. It is unlined but I actually really like this as a feature (although the black is dark inside, so at times hard to see what’s at the bottom). Best quality zipper I’ve seen on a bag and the handles are sturdy yet comfortable to carry even when the bag is full.

I love that it’s handmade, in Australia and that I am supporting a wonderful Australian business with this purchase. I would not hesitate to purchase again, deciding on which bag is the hardest part!

Keep doing what you are doing Ben and team!

Good buy and quality

Initially I ordered the bag with a Chestnut handle because someone commented it looks great with that combination. CM emailed me a photo of the bag with the chestnut handle, I didn't like it so I changed it to the black handle. It was really nice they checked with me first. The bag is bigger than expected but I love it. It looks great and I'm looking to buy the Mini Bespokes.

obsidian zippered tote with Chestnut handles

I love my new bag. I like the point of difference with the chestnut handles against the obsidian leather. The obsidian leather is thicker and the bag has a more structured look compared to my other zippered totes which I love
