FAQs

What are the dimensions of the Kensington Large Tote Bag?

The exact dimensions can vary slightly by specific model, but this large tote is designed to be spacious for everyday essentials. Please refer to the product's specific listing for precise measurements.

Is the blue color prone to fading?

While the leather is treated for durability, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause colors to fade over time. It's best to store the bag away from direct sunlight when not in use.

Can this bag be used as a carry-on for flights?

Yes, its size generally makes it suitable as a personal item or carry-on for most airlines, though it's always recommended to check specific airline dimensions for carry-on luggage.

How do I clean the pebbled leather if it gets dirty?

For general cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth. If more thorough cleaning is needed, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals and excessive water.

What does it mean that the leather is sourced from Leather Working Group certified tanneries?

This means that 100% of the leather used in this product comes from tanneries that have been audited and recognized for their environmental best practices, such as water usage and waste management.

Is the gold-tone hardware actual gold?

The hardware is typically gold-tone plated or finished. It is designed for aesthetic appeal and durability, but it is not solid gold.

Can the strap length be adjusted?

The Kensington tote features top handles designed to slip comfortably over the shoulder. They are not typically adjustable, but their length is optimized for comfortable carrying.

Troubleshooting

Bag shape appears slumped

Stuff the bag with tissue paper or a pillow when not in use to help it maintain its structure. Ensure the bag is not overstuffed, which can also cause distortion.

Hardware is tarnished

Gently polish the gold-tone hardware with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For stubborn tarnish, a mild metal polish designed for gold-plated items can be used sparingly, followed by a thorough wipe-down.

Leather shows minor scuffs

For light scuffs, try buffing the area gently with a soft cloth. A leather conditioner might also help to blend minor imperfections. For deeper scuffs, consult a professional leather repair service.

Zipper is sticking

Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth of the zipper. Gently work the zipper back and forth to smooth its movement.
