Everyday Care
- Condition your bag as needed. With wear, your leather will need some love as it may get dry. We recommend Tad Coffin Saddle Buff Conditioner.
- When storing your bags, avoid direct sunlight and keep them in a dust bag for more protection.
- Avoid getting your leather wet. We know that the weather can be unpredictable and accidents happen though. If your bag gets wet, blot it as much as possible with a white cloth and then let it air dry. Don't try to dry it with heat or a hair dryer as it will affect the oils in the leather, thus its appearance.
- Wash your jeans, girl! We are not responsible for color transfer onto your leather bag.
Cleaning
Don' panic, but try to clean your bag as quick as possible if you get a stain or spill.
- Less is more: Avoid over-cleaning; gentle care is best.
- Blot, don’t rub: Use a dry white cloth to absorb moisture immediately.
- For tougher spots: Mix a mild dish soap with water (3:1 ratio) and gently blot the area.
- Be patient: Stains often fade over time and blend into your bag's natural patina and become part of your bag's beautiful worn-in look.
Leather
Real, natural leather will take on a unique character over time, slowly developing a patina, and taking on the life of the user.
If you get an undesired scratch on your leather, rub it out with the heat of your hand to shift the oils and cover the scratch (never use add heat from something like a hairdyer on leather). If you would like to condition your leather, we recommend using Tad Coffin Leather Conditioner.
Waxed Canvas
Waxed canvas is a durable, water-resistant cotton fabric with a unique, lived-in look. Over time, it develops a one-of-a-kind patina, with creases and marks that add character. Each bag is unique and only improves with age, making it a timeless piece.
Want to freshen up your bag? Warm it up with the heat of your hair dryer (keeping it about 6 inches from your bag), and use your hand to rub out any unwanted scratches.
