Know before you buy
The tag features a durable, full-grain Italian leather strap with a buckle closure. It is designed to remain securely fastened to your luggage handle throughout the rigors of travel.
While the needlepoint is crafted with high-quality French cotton thread, it is a textile-based material. It is durable for standard travel, but keep in mind that it may show wear faster than a solid plastic or metal tag if subjected to extreme handling.
The ID window is sized to accommodate a standard business card or a similarly sized piece of paper. The clear plastic sleeve keeps your information protected and visible.
The tag uses full-grain Italian leather, which is naturally resilient. However, like all fine leather goods, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or soaking to maintain the integrity of the material and the needlepoint stitching.
You can spot clean the needlepoint area gently with a slightly damp, soft cloth and a mild detergent if necessary. Avoid scrubbing the threads vigorously to prevent fraying.
