Every Debra Lee handbag is crafted from premium sustainably sourced leather selected for its beauty, durability, and everyday performance. Our leathers undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure exceptional strength, flexibility, and color integrity, allowing your bag to be enjoyed for years to come. 

To preserve the natural character of your handbag: 

• Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which may cause fading over time.
• Keep away from excessive heat sources, including radiators, heaters, and hot vehicles.
• Store your bag in its dust bag when not in use to protect it from dust and light exposure.
• Avoid contact with water, oils, cosmetics, and other substances that may stain or alter the leather's finish.

Cleaning & Maintenance

For routine care, gently wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth.

If additional cleaning is needed, lightly dampen a soft cloth with a solution of warm water and a small drop of mild dish soap, then gently wipe the affected area. Follow by drying with a clean, soft cloth.

For deeper cleaning or conditioning, we recommend using a leather care product specifically designed for fine leather goods and always testing any product on an inconspicuous area first. 

Like all natural leather, your Debra Lee handbag will develop a unique patina over time—a reflection of its journey and the moments it accompanies you through.

Every Debra Lee suede handbag is crafted from premium sustainably sourced suede selected for its rich texture, softness, and natural beauty. Our suede is carefully selected for quality, durability, and color integrity, allowing your bag to be enjoyed for years to come.

To preserve the natural character of your handbag:

• Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which may cause fading over time.
• Keep away from excessive heat sources, including radiators, heaters, and hot vehicles.
• Store your bag in its dust bag when not in use to protect it from dust, light exposure, and surface abrasion.
• Avoid contact with water, oils, cosmetics, lotions, and other substances that may stain or alter the suede's natural finish.
• Take care when wearing suede against light-colored or delicate fabrics, as some color transfer may naturally occur, particularly with darker or richly saturated suede.

Cleaning & Maintenance

For routine care, gently brush the suede with a clean, soft-bristled suede brush to remove surface dust and maintain its natural nap. Always brush gently and in a consistent direction.

For minor marks or dry surface stains, use a suede eraser or a clean, dry suede cleaning cloth, working gently over the affected area without excessive pressure.

Avoid using water, soap, conventional leather cleaners, conditioners, or household cleaning products on suede, as these may cause staining, discoloration, or changes to the texture.

For deeper cleaning, significant staining, or water exposure, we recommend consulting a professional leather and suede care specialist. Always test any suede-specific care product on a small, inconspicuous area before applying it more broadly.

Like all natural suede, your Debra Lee handbag will develop subtle variations in texture and appearance over time. These characteristics are part of the material's natural beauty, making each bag uniquely its own.
