Our Leathers & Leather Care
Bubble Leather
This leather has a thick soft buttery hand feel and obvious grain variation, making each piece more visually unique and unrepeatable than other leather types. Being lamb leather it's softer than most other leather types, so be careful not to rub it against rough surfaces to avoid unwanted scratching of the leather surface.
Leather Care Wipe your leather with a damp cloth (warm soapy water) every couple of months to keep your leather looking its best (don't use baby wipes, vinegar, etc.)
Try to avoid greasy hands (or recently applied hand cream) coming into contact with your leather. Avoid excessive rubbing of light leather on dark clothing (jeans etc) to avoid colour transfer onto the leather.
It's also best to avoid leaving leather for long periods in direct sunlight as it can cause the colour to fade and the leather to dry out. When not in use, keep your bag stuffed in its dust bag or box.
Returns Easy 60 day returns for any reason. See our Refunds & Exchanges page for all info.

WHEN WILL MY ORDER BE DISPATCHED
There's no stuffing around over here... Orders placed before 1:00pm (Mon-Fri) will be dispatched same day. Orders placed after 1:00pm (Mon-Fri) will be dispatched the next business day (so Friday PM orders go Monday... unless it's a public holiday in which case you'll find us at the beach - not packing your order).
DELIVERY TIMEFRAMES
Delivery timeframes are a guide only and start from the date of dispatch.Rest assured we spend our days chasing carriersto meet the delivery timeframes but, hard to believe we agree, they don't always listen and delays caused by the postal service do happen from time to time. If delivery is attempted and nobody's available to accept the parcel, in most cases it'll be held at your local Post Office for a period of time. If you're not contactable and your parcel's unable to be delivered, it'll be returned to us and we’ll contact you and arrange alternate delivery.
DAMAGED OR MISSING GOODS
We take great care to ensure that products are packed securely so they arrive at your door in tip top condition. As a result, any items damaged during delivery will be replaced upon receipt of the damaged goods back to us. Please note that if an item's been lost/stolen in transit, a replacement of the product will be organised at our discretion.
Please check that you gave us the correct delivery address at time of ordering (also on our order confirmation email) as if it comes back to us we won't be happy chappies. We are however very nice people so we will resend your order again (after checking with you for the correct address of course).
