Radley Leather

Radley bags are made from only the finest quality leather because of its remarkable durability. Not only does the leather help protect the bag from everyday scratches and scuffs, but it is supple and soft to the touch. The use of natural leather, which ages over time, helps to give each individual bag its own characteristics.

Radley also encourages the care of its products to its customers and produces leather care and cleaning products made specifically for their bags. They also give tips and instructions for the proper way to clean a Radley handbag.

- Always wipe leather gently, do not scrub as the material may become damaged and scuffed.

- When using cleaning products, always test it on a hidden part of the bag first.

- Do not leave your leather handbag in direct sunlight.

- Try not to overfill your handbag, as they will eventually lose their shape
