Care Instructions
Please note that patches, embellishments, and decorative details may vary slightly from those shown, depending on material availability. We always work as closely as possible to the original design, and every piece retains the same spirit and quality. Patches are securely fixed — in the rare event one loosens, it's an easy fix at home with a little fabric glue. If a patch comes away completely, just get in touch and we'll help.
