care

With the right care, your CRIE bag will be a statement piece for many years. Each item is made by hand using ethically sourced materials, quality craftsmanship, and a commitment to sustainability. CRIE bags have a hand-applied finish that resists water and dirt; however, stains may still occur with exposure to the elements. Items made with natural vegetable tanned leather will darken over time and develop a lovely patina.

Leather and wood are natural products with inherent variation in grain, color, and texture. This variation lends to the beauty and unique character of each piece.

Spot clean with a lint free cloth, very slightly dampened if needed. If the leather begins to look too dry, treat with a high quality leather conditioner. Always patch test an inconspicuous area first before applying any product to the entire piece.
