No. With every product upload, we strive to market each bag to its individual needs and as fast as possible.

Depending on your bag’s condition and its demand, we take distinct care steps – such as hardware polishing and leather conditioning. You can think of it as your bag’s (well-deserved) routine pampering session. Please be aware that scratches or discolouration may remain after the treatment.

Upon completion of your bag’s spa treatment, we will send it back to you immediately – fully insured and beautifully packaged as usual. Please note: depending on the service and care your bag requires, the whole process can take between 3–4 weeks.

We are happy to restore and refurbish your bag if it shows significant damage. However, this service is not included in our free Bag Spa treatment. Please get in touch with our consultants for a bespoke offer.

Please let us know promptly – at the latest 48 hours after your bag’s return – if you are unhappy with the outcome. We always do our best to care for your bag. However, severe marks or traces of usage might remain – think of them as signs of your bag’s character and history.

We have created the Leather Care Kit in collaboration with Act of Caring, a sustainable material care expert from Sweden. The Leather Care Kit includes a Restoring Leather Cleanser, Protecting Leather Balm and two sponges that can be used for application. It arrives beautifully packaged in a matching dust bag.

The mild Restoring Leather Cleanser and Protecting Leather Balm can be used to gently clean, hydrate and protect smooth or grained leathers – Chanel lambskin or Hermès Togo leather, for example.

Do not use it on nubuck, suede or exotic leather.

You can find the detailed instructions on the product page under “Instruction”. Please follow the instructions closely. Always try the Leather Care Kit out on an inconspicuous corner of your handbag first before applying it to the whole piece, to see how the leather reacts to the product.

Do not use it on nubuck, suede or exotic leather.

Incorrect at-home cleaning or the wrong use of the Leather Care Kit bears a risk to your bag’s leather. We assume no liability for any damage caused by incorrectly executed cleaning or care attempts.

Free shipping applies on all orders of the Leather Care Kit within the EU. If you want to purchase it from outside the EU, please contact our Customer Care. Delivery costs and import duties may apply depending on your country and are not included. 

Naturally, if you purchase the Leather Care Kit together with a handbag, free shipping applies worldwide. You also enjoy a € 5 discount.
