CHOOSE AND CARE FOR YOUR BAG

The perfect bag is a loyal companion through thick and thin. Consider both style and function when choosing your new bag, and don't forget to show it some love so you can enjoy many years together! Here are our best tips for choosing and taking care of your bag:

1. Find Your Match

Discover the perfect bag by assessing your daily routine, personal style, and practical needs.

Reflect on your daily routine to choose the right size and function. Consider your preference between cross-body and handle bags, and whether you need features like detachable shoulder straps or space for a laptop. Choosing model with care is the first step to finding your perfect long-lasting companion.

Select a color, that not only resonates with you, but also complements your wardrobe.

Do you want your new accessory to blend seamlessly with your outfit or to stand out as a bold statement piece? Remember that vegetable-tanned leather evolves over time, with darker dyes holding their color better. For those of you who love the look of a naturally aged material, opt for natural leather or the light Oily Navy Nubuck. If you prefer lasting color, select a dyed option like Black, Brick or Green for example.

2. Leather Care

Protect your new companion from day one. A good start sets the stage for lasting beauty and durability.


Before first use, protect your bag against moisture and stains. Treat Oily Navy Nubuck with a transparent nubuck spray before use. If you prefer to protect your natural leather, treat it with a spray or conditioner for an even patina. Always test on a small, hidden area first. Visit Eduards Accessories’ Leather Guide for detailed leather care instructions.

Keep your bag in good condition with regular care. Use the right products for cleaning and storing to ensure its longevity.

Keep your bag clean and dry to prevent stains and to maintain its natural elasticity. Never dry wet leather with heat; instead, let it dry at room temperature. Use products designed for leather care to clean and protect it. When not in use, stuff the bag to help it maintain its shape and store your leather bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

3. Carry With Care, Repair if needed


Remember, a bit of care goes a long way. Handle your bag gently to maintain its shape over time.


Avoid overloading your leather bag with heavy or bulky items, as this can stretch and distort the shape of the leather. Open zippers fully to reduce stress, and be mindful of sharp objects that could scratch the leather and the seams.

Eduards’ designs facilitate easy repairs.


Eduards Accessories bags are designed for easy care and repair, with replaceable parts and standard colors for easy matching. Metal parts such as rivets and buttons are from a standard range that can be supplemented over time. We do not use delicate textiles, only real leather for inner pockets and lining. If needed, professional cobblers can easily repair or refresh your everyday companion.
