Our products are crafted from high-quality, ethically sourced genuine leather. We carefully select leather for its durability, natural texture, and premium feel, ensuring every piece stands the test of time.

2. How do I care for my leather bag?
To keep your leather bag looking its best, use a leather conditioner every few months and store it in a dust bag when not in use. Avoid direct exposure to moisture and sunlight, and clean with a damp cloth if necessary.

3. Are all your leather bags handmade?
Yes, each VDS Leathers bag is handcrafted by skilled artisans. We pride ourselves on the craftsmanship and attention to detail that comes from years of experience in the leather industry.

Currently, we do not offer product customization. However, our minimalist and timeless designs are crafted to suit a wide range of styles and preferences.

5. How long will it take for my order to arrive?
Delivery times vary depending on your location but generally range from 2-3 business days within South Africa.

6. Do you ship internationally?
At this time, we do not offer international shipping. We are actively working to expand our shipping options and look forward to serving customers worldwide in the future.

7. What is your return policy?

8. Will leather stretch over time?
Yes, genuine leather will naturally stretch and mold over time, especially if frequently used or subjected to heavy loads. To minimize excessive stretching, avoid overfilling your leather bag and store it properly when not in use.

9. How can I tell if a leather product is made from genuine leather?
Genuine leather has a distinct texture and aroma that is hard to replicate. It may have slight imperfections, such as natural wrinkles or color variations, which indicate its authenticity. Faux leather, on the other hand, often has a uniform appearance and lacks the natural scent of real leather.
