THE MATERIALS<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]

\n\t

\n\n\t \n Does it rot if it gets wet? And does it smell like apple? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]No, and no. Apple leather is a treated technical material, not a piece of fruit. It’s water-resistant, durable and, as far as I know, doesn’t smell like anything in particular. Though I understand the question.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\n\t \n Is it as good as animal leather? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]Depends what you mean by good. If good means beautiful, strong and long-lasting: yes. If good means an animal died to make it: no. And that’s exactly the point.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\n\t \n How long does it last? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]Long enough that you won’t need to replace it for several seasons. I work with quality materials precisely for that reason: fashion you have to throw away in a year isn’t a real alternative to anything.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\n\t \n Why limited edition? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]Because that’s how I work. Each collection has a fixed number of pieces. Once they sell out, they don’t come back. It’s not a marketing strategy: it’s simply how I do things.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1785231721467{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

CARE AND USE<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]

\n\t

\n\n\t \n How do I clean my bag? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]With a damp cloth for the occasional stain. It doesn’t need any special products or treatments. Store it in the cotton dust bag that comes with every bag when you’re not using it.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\n\t \n Is it sturdy enough for daily use? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]Yes. It’s designed for exactly that. It holds up very well under weight and continued use. This isn’t an occasional-use bag: it’s a bag made for real, everyday carrying.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1785231731673{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

THE PROCESS AND PRODUCTION<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]

\n\t

\n\n\t \n Do you make them yourself? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]I design them myself. Production is handled by an artisan workshop in Spain, where I personally know the people who work there. That matters to me just as much as the material.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\n\t \n Are the photos edited? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]No. You’ll receive exactly the product you see in the photo. No filters, no edits that change the color or texture.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1785231740602{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]

\n\n\t \n Can I return an order? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]Yes. You have 30 days to return an order. Exchanges and returns are free \u2014 we cover all the costs.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\n\t \n Do you have sales? <\/span>\n<\/span>\n\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/h4>\n
\n
\n [vc_column_text css=””]No. Only launch promotions on certain products. The price you see is the real price, never inflated just to discount it later.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”center” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1785231602025{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 80px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n
