A Note on Our Canvas & Leather Details
Our vintage-style bags are crafted from top-grain crazy horse leather accents. Without surface coating and treated with professional oil techniques, the leather naturally develops unique character marks — these are inherent features of the material and not defects. With daily use, surfaces grow softer and more lustrous, revealing deeper retro texture over time. Note: The natural scratch characteristic applies to crazy horse leather styles; oil-wax canvas styles do not exhibit this trait.
Shipping Note: Due to packaging size requirements, some backpacks may be folded for shipment, which can result in minor surface creases. These will naturally fade and smooth out with regular use. By placing your order, you acknowledge this standard shipping method.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the oil-wax canvas material and how does it differ from regular canvas?
A: Oil-wax canvas is a heavy-duty woven fabric that has been infused with wax or oil treatments, giving it enhanced water resistance, a distinctive matte sheen, and a rugged vintage appearance. Unlike standard canvas, it develops a richer patina with use, making each bag uniquely yours over time.
Q: Will this backpack fit my 15-inch laptop safely?
A: Yes! This backpack features a dedicated interior compartment sized to accommodate laptops up to 15 inches. The nylon lining inside helps protect your device from scratches and everyday bumps.
Q: Is this backpack suitable for both men and women?
A: Absolutely. The unisex design, neutral army green colorway, and classic British plaid-inspired patchwork detailing make this backpack a versatile accessory for anyone who appreciates retro, casual style.
Q: How do I care for the oil-wax canvas to keep it looking great?
A: Wipe down the surface with a damp cloth to remove dirt or dust. Avoid submerging the bag in water or machine washing. If the canvas begins to lose its luster, a light application of beeswax or canvas wax can help restore its finish and water-resistant properties.
