Sustainability and Product Care
Product care
It's important to look after the things we own. Maintaining your bag well will help to keep it strong, supple and weather-resistant. The good news is your dry-finish waxed canvas bag is built to last and super easy to maintain.
Cleaning
Begin by brushing off any loose dirt and debris with a stiff brush while the bag is dry. Next clean the surface of the bag with a sponge and warm soapy water. Make sure to use a clear soap to avoid staining the fabric. Use a toothbrush to get into the hard to reach areas like seams and pocket folds. Finally use a cloth to remove any excess moisture and leave the bag to dry fully before reproofing. We always recommend reproofing after you deep clean your bag to refresh the wax coating that may have been partially removed during the cleaning process.
Reproofing
We recommend reproofing your bag every 6 months to keep the weather at bay. Reproof your canvas bag with a wax emulsion spray formulated specifically for use on dry-finish waxed canvas. For best performance, always use the same wax formula that your bag came with.
Repairs
We have dedicated Repair Stations in our stores and we're fully equipped to breathe new life into your old kit. This includes spare parts, patches, new zips and wash and reproofing of your down and waterproofs. Pop into any store or contact us online for more info.

We have joined the Science Based Targets Initiative which sets independent targets for us to achieve to do our bit to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Our targets are to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025 based on 2018 base year and reduce our total carbon intesnity by 15% every year to achieve genuine net zero by 2050.
