Bag Care Guide

With a little care, your Karvelle bag will look beautiful for years to come. Here are our tips for keeping your bag in top condition.

Vegan Leather Bags

  • Wipe with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt or marks.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive cleaners.
  • Store in the dust bag provided when not in use.
  • Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent fading or cracking.
  • Avoid overstuffing — this helps maintain the bag's shape.

Woven Bags

  • Gently brush off dirt with a soft dry cloth or brush.
  • Spot clean with a barely damp cloth if needed.
  • Allow to air dry completely before storing.
  • Store stuffed with tissue paper to maintain shape.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.

Raffia & Straw Bags

  • Brush gently with a soft bristle brush to remove dust.
  • Spot clean only — avoid submerging in water.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Stuff with tissue paper to hold shape during storage.

General Tips

  • Rotate your bags regularly to prevent wear on any single piece.
  • Avoid placing bags on rough surfaces that may scratch the base.
  • If your bag gets wet, pat it dry with a soft cloth and let it air dry naturally — never use a hair dryer or radiator.
  • Keep light-coloured bags away from dark denim or clothing that may transfer dye.
