FAQs

What are the dimensions of the bag?

The bag measures 27cm in width, 21cm in height, and 6.5cm in depth.

Can this bag be worn in the rain?

While the vegan leather trim offers some protection, the suedette material is not waterproof and may be damaged by prolonged exposure to moisture. It is best avoided in heavy rain.

How do I clean the suedette finish?

Use a soft brush or dry cloth for light cleaning. For stains, a slightly damp cloth can be used cautiously, followed by immediate drying. Professional cleaning is recommended for significant marks.

Does the bag come with the matching coin purse?

The bag is designed to coordinate with the Kensington coin and card purse, which is sold separately. You can purchase them together for a matched set.

What color options are available?

The Kensington Suedette Bag is available in four understated colorways: Olive, Chocolate, Mink, and Fudge.

Is the strap length adjustable?

Yes, the strap is adjustable, allowing you to wear the bag as either a shoulder bag or a crossbody bag.

What material is the trim made from?

The trim is made from smooth vegan leather.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to open/close

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the teeth of the zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Suedette material appears matted or dirty

Use a soft-bristled brush specifically for suede to gently brush the nap of the material. For persistent marks, consult a professional leather cleaner specializing in suedette.

Strap adjustment mechanism is loose

Check that the buckle or slider is correctly positioned and tightened according to its design. If it continues to slip, the mechanism might be faulty, and professional repair may be needed.
