Aged leather bag: the best friend of the less careful
It is well known, we do not treat a goat suede bag in the same way as an already aged leather model! If you are not someone very careful, then choose an accessory whose leather work already gives it a slightly weathered appearance, which will give your piece a unique character while remaining indulgent with the small scratches that time. will inflict on him. The Sienna bag is the ideal model for working girls who don't necessarily have time to pamper their new leather friend.

Only, the maintenance makes you doubt and it stays in your basket, begging you to buy it. Don't worry, you can validate your order thanks to our few tips for taking good care of your new companion!

On a daily basis, a simple clean cloth slightly moistened beforehand will suffice – however, remember to dry your bag completely with a microfiber cloth before storing it.
