Before your order leaves our warehouse, one of us gives it a proper once-over.

We check:

the leather and the colour
the stitching, zips and fastenings
that everything is there

Then your piece goes into its dust bag and we pack it all up with care. Packing slip in, label on, and it's on its way!

Run your fingers over the leather. What you feel is real: not sanded, not printed, with the grain just as nature made it. This is full-grain leather, the strongest layer of the hide.

The leather is treated by hand with wax and oils instead of paint. That is why leather from The Chesterfield Brand feels soft and supple from day one, and smells the way leather should.

And the best is yet to come. Every time you use your bag or wallet, the leather becomes more supple and deeper in colour. No two pieces are alike, and that is what makes every product unique.

Description

The leather crossbody bag Alva is made of high quality Wax Pull-up leather. Wax pull-up leather is characterized by a soft and supple structure. You can easily rub away any traces of use due to the special wax treatment that the bag has undergone. This keeps your bag brand new, for years!

Materials

This product is made from Wax Pull-Up Leather, a high-quality full-grain cowhide. It is not sanded or printed, but shows the grain just as nature made it. With great care, passion and craftsmanship, we have made this leather our speciality. It starts with the selection of high-quality hides, carefully chosen for their quality and appearance. After tanning in wooden drums, the leather is finished by hand with wax and oils, rather than being spray-coloured with paint. That is why it feels soft and supple from day one. Experienced craftspeople work on every product, from cutting and stitching to adding the lining made of recycled nylon. Over time, the characteristic pull-up effect becomes visible and the leather develops a deep, natural character. Leather is a natural product, so small variations can occur. They are part of its character and make every product unique.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is your question not listed here? Contact us.

How can I contact customer service?

You can contact us by sending a ticket via our support portal. You can also call us at (050) 763 08 89 or use the contact form on our website. We’re happy to assist you!

How can I return an item?

Within the EU, exchanging is free: choose another item, colour or size temporarily until 31 December, via our returns page.

Prefer store credit? That is free too, plus a little extra. If you choose a refund to your original payment method, we deduct €4.95 in return costs.

Returning from outside the EU? Then you arrange and pay for the return shipment yourself. Gift packaging is non-refundable.

How do I best take care of my leather item(s)?

Once you receive your product, it’s ready to use. We don’t recommend treating it with leather wax beforehand. To enjoy your leather items for as long as possible, we suggest maintaining them properly. Treat your Chesterfield Brand items at least four times a year for the best protection.

We’ve developed special products to help with this, like our Leather Wax and or Wax Spray. This product cleans and cares for the leather all in one go. The wax is colorless, dries quickly, and doesn’t stick, making it suitable for all leather colors. We’ve also made a handy instructional video that you can find on our care tips page. Never apply the leather wax directly to the product; always use a cloth or piece of fabric to spread the wax evenly.

Additionally, we have a Protection Spray that helps prevent your leather bag from transferring color onto light clothing. Color transfer can happen under certain conditions, especially in warm weather and with perspiration. This spray has been specially developed in collaboration with the manufacturer for optimal results.

With these tips and products, your leather bag will stay in great condition!

Due to current shipping regulations, it’s unfortunately not possible to order the Protection Spray and Wax Spray for customers outside the EU.

Where do The Chesterfield Brand products come from?

Our products come from India. We work closely with experienced suppliers there to create unique leather. We regularly visit the factories and ensure that every step of the production process is of high quality. We only choose SA8000 and/or SEDEX certified factories and use leather that complies with the REACH standard. A lot of our leather is vegetable-tanned, meaning it's chrome-free.

The hides for our products mainly come from India and Poland. We use 90% cowhide and 10% buffalo leather. Leather is a by-product of the meat industry, and we turn it into sustainable, beautiful products. For example, our Cow Wax Pull Up leather is treated with natural waxes and oils, resulting in a soft and flexible finish. This leather can be easily re-treated, which contributes to the durability and lifespan of your product.

What types of leather does The Chesterfield Brand use?

We use two types of leather: cow leather and buffalo leather. With this leather, we've developed various finishes. You can find more information about this on this page: "Our leather" page.
