Care
Garstin only use the finest Italian vegetable tanned leather from a small family run tannery in Tuscany. This premium leather will age beautifully over time and develop it own unique patina. The natural oils in the leather mean the scuffs in daily use should be buffed out by simply rubbing your thumb along them. If you want to use a leather conditioner use a natural beeswax balm.
The English brass hardware will also patina over time which will add to the character of the satchel, you can of course polish then to keep them shiny with quality brass cleaner. Be careful not to get any on the leather as this could discolour the leather.
Your satchel comes with a dust bag and it is advised to keep it in the dust bag whenever you are not using the satchel.

Meet the Maker: Garstin 1871

With a heritage dating back to Edwardian times, Garstin 1871 revives the craft of Arthur Garstin, who in 1893 created the original leather wristlet – potentially the first commercially produced leather wristwatch strap, commissioned by British army officers. Today, Garstin's modern heritage range fuses durable British craft skills with contemporary design, specialising in exquisite leather accessories for modern Apple technology. Each piece is handcrafted in England from the finest Italian vegetable-tanned leather in a Gloucestershire atelier by one of Britain's most accomplished leather craftsmen – who has created pieces for King Charles himself. From MacBook satchels to Apple Watch straps and AirTag holders, every item is hand-finished with saddle stitching and comes with a lifetime promise, embodying the brand's ethos: British quality with timeless style.
