📍 Regional UK Deliveries (NI, Highlands & Islands)
We provide standard delivery to Northern Ireland, the Scottish Highlands, and UK Offshore Islands. Please allow 2–3 working days for these locations:
- Highlands & Islands (Zone 2): AB31-38, HS1-9, IV, KW, PA20-80, PH17-50, PO30-41 (Isle of Wight), and ZE.
- Northern Ireland & Isle of Man (Zone 3): All BT, IM, and TR21-25 (Scilly Isles) postcodes.
For routine maintenance, simply wipe the bag down with a soft, clean, dry cloth to remove dust. If you need to spot clean minor dirt, use a cloth slightly dampened with distilled water, wipe gently, and allow the area to air dry fully. Never use excessive water or harsh chemicals.
If your bag gets wet, blot it dry immediately with a clean towel and allow it to air dry normally. Never use direct heat (like a hairdryer), as this can cause the leather to stiffen and crack.
To ensure long-term flexibility, apply a quality leather conditioner 1–2 times per year. When storing the bag, always stuff it to maintain its shape, and keep it in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight, covered with a breathable cloth dust bag.
