Natural Materials

Our structured shoulder bag is crafted from full-grain pull-up leather, known for its strength, smooth finish, and evolving patina. The interior features 100% organic cotton canvas, offering a natural, breathable alternative to synthetic linings.

Each bag is handmade in Kenya using ethically sourced hides and time-honoured techniques. The result is a leather shoulder bag that embodies sustainable luxury, durability, and timeless design.

Care

Keep your leather shoulder bag looking beautiful for years with proper care. The pull-up leather ages naturally, developing a rich patina that enhances its character and softness over time.

Care Instructions:
• Remove loose dirt and dust with a soft, dry cloth or natural bristle brush.
• For marks or spills, gently wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally.
• Avoid using harsh cleaners or soaking the leather, as this may remove its natural oils.
• Apply a small amount of high-quality leather conditioner every few months to maintain suppleness and protect the finish.
• Store your bag in a cool, dry place inside its dust bag, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures to preserve the integrity of the pull-up leather.
• When not in use, gently stuff the bag with tissue paper to help maintain its shape.
