When leather gets wet
Whether you spill a drop, a drink or a bucket on your leather, gently wipe the excess moisture away with a clean cloth and let the leather dry on its own away from sunlight.
We accept:
We select our materials based on a balance of functionality, durability and their ability to age gracefully. We are also committed to making them environmentally sustainable – using fabrics made from recycled and plant-derived materials, and sourcing leathers with the least environmental impact.
We use leather for things like wallets and zip pulls, because it feels great in hand, and stands up to the test of time. And we only use the best leather we can source, from Leather Working Group gold-rated tanneries.
This finish gives our DriTan™ leather a natural look and feel, so it develops rich texture and plenty of character as it ages.
This finish showcases the aniline hides in a more natural state – allowing the grain and personality to develop richer texture and character as they age.
These are more resilient to marking than our naked leathers, while still looking natural.
This unique finish is available in both dressed and naked leather, and is infused with an oil during tanning that gives it impressive water resistance.
The 100% recycled polyester and nylon fabrics we use in our bags and pouches perform just as well as virgin materials, with far less impact on the environment.
This versatile all-rounder balances the natural matte look of canvas, with a performance finish that’s easy to clean.
This weave has a natural canvas feel that’s great in your hands. As the name suggests, it is also highly resistant to wear and tear.
Lightweight, waterproof and super durable, this composite is made from 100% recycled materials, with non-toxic laminate adhesive.
A third of the weight of our other fabrics, this diamond-patterned ripstop allows us to go light without compromising strength. The yarn is lightly textured, making it both soft and matte.
This strong weave is both textural and warm – reminiscent of comfortable home furnishings, yet imbued with innovation and technical performance.
This fine weave’s high thread count creates a smooth finish, that’s still durable. A very subtle lustre gives it a modern – but not technical – look.
This lightweight, highly compressible weave adds a soft external touch to our 3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulated cooler range.
A heat treatment on the yarn creates a crinkled finish, plus extra resistance to water and wear. It’s lightweight, crisp and completely unique.
This weave’s military heritage, durability, tear-resistance and light weight make it ideal for performance styles that call for a technical feel and function.
The crinkled finish of our Baida Nylon is paired with a strong ripstop, for a technical fabric that’s equal parts lustrous aesthetics and durable performance.
These innovative materials offer impressive performance, while treading lightly on the earth.
An innovative leather alternative made with a custom formulation of natural rubber, soy beans and biomass charcoal, with an organic cotton backing.

This soft-touch polymer is made with renewable, bio-based materials, mixed with bamboo fiber for an intriguing visual texture. It is fully compostable.
Whether you spill a drop, a drink or a bucket on your leather, gently wipe the excess moisture away with a clean cloth and let the leather dry on its own away from sunlight.
Rub an uncolored leather cream or conditioner through your leather to bring softness and depth back into it. Options made from natural ingredients only are best.
For stains, use a leather cleaner only. It’s also a good idea to apply leather conditioner after cleaning, and whenever you feel like the leather needs a bit of TLC. Remember to use conditioners that are suitable for aniline or semi-aniline leather.
To clean your fabric product, simply wipe it with a damp cloth. For more serious stains, look for a high grade multi-purpose fabric cleaner like you’d use on your sofa. Avoid detergents or bleach. And as tempting as it might be, never put it through the washing machine.
While our fabrics are durable and pretty excellent at resisting water and wear, it’s a good idea to keep sharp objects packaged up properly, should you need to carry them. Small cuts in the lining or exterior fabric will weaken the overall durability and resistance.
