Product Care
Our leather care products are made with three simple, all-natural ingredients: seed oils, beeswax and tallow. While other brands use silicone or water-based formulations, our leather care ingredients have been used for centuries in different ways, from tanning to conditioning leather, for optimal care and preservation.
Pretreat with our spot cleaner, restore with our conditioner and protect with our rain coat.
Customization
Many of our products can be customized by request. Depending on the product, options include: material color, hardware color (brass or brushed nickel), zipper color and zipper lining color.
Submit a customization request using our contact form and we'll contact you directly before proceeding. Be sure to enter the product name and describe any customizations you'd like made.
Note: This is a request, not an order. We may not be able to fulfill every request.
Not All Leather Is Created Equal
We source the highest quality full-grain leather available, known for its softness and resilience, to ensure our products withstand the rigors of daily use. With the natural grain remaining intact, full-grain leather retains its strength and rich character.
Lower-grade leathers, often labeled as“genuine leather,” are typically made from split layers of the hide that are heavily processed and coated to create a uniform surface. While they may look similar at first, these materials tend to crack and peel over time.
Luxurious Texture & Rich Patina
Rather than wearing out, our full-grain leather wears in. Over time, our leather develops a rich patina that reflects years of wear. This aging process enhances the leather’s beauty and provides unique characteristics and variations that make each piece one-of-a-kind.
Glazed in appearance, the darkening hues and signs of wear that our leather acquires with age make up what is known as a patina. This natural finish softens the material while imparting personality to an accessory meant to be worn for a lifetime.
A Material With Natural Origins
We source our leather from Argentina, a country long recognized for producing some of the finest hides in the world. Cattle are raised across the vast grasslands, where grazing conditions contribute to healthy hides with exceptional character.
Leather itself is a by-product of the meat industry, meaning the hides would otherwise go unused if not repurposed. Rather than allowing these hides to go to waste, they are processed into durable materials that can be used responsibly and appreciated for decades.
Mindful Style & Minimal Waste
After our leather is expertly sourced from Buenos Aires, we send it to New York City, where it is carefully prepared for production. During this process, it is enhanced to help create the most yield from a single piece of material while avoiding waste.
By thoughtfully planning how each pattern is placed, we are able to make the most of every hide. Smaller sections are often used for wallets and accessories, ensuring that the material is utilized as fully as possible.

Joni backpack
"As always the leather is beautiful and well made. I love my purchase. Bought this in olive. Great color."
Great Bag
"I needed this bag quickly for a trip to Ireland. I ordered the espresso color and received it in two days. It was the perfect bag. My back never hurt. My shoulders never hurt. I carried a small sweater, small umbrella, sunglasses, Hydro flask, and telephone in addition to the usual purse items. I used the pocket in the back for my passport, extra cash and backup credit cards. I loved the espresso color which was neutral, went with everything and was less boring than black. Osgood Marley was a pleasure to deal with and I love my bag."

"My Joni back pack is great. The leather is so soft and creamy. Just the right size too."
Softest leather ever…. also lightweight!
"Have had the teardrop backpack for 10 years & I love it !! Wanted to try a different colored, larger bag …I love the soft leather & know I’ll love this one as much !!"
Best Quality Ever
"I absolutely love my backpack. I bought the Joni Backpack in black. The leather is so supple & soft, yet the back pack has good form & isn't sloppy. I'd buy it again, and highly recommend it."
Zipper
"The bag is beautiful, but not as much room as expected. The zipper takes some work & when out in public it’s challenging to get it closed."
Second one I own
"I carried my one (same color!) for 3 years non-stop. I finally passed it down to my daughter and ordered a new one for myself. I love the color all year and once you start with a backpack purse, there is no going back to over-the-shoulder. The color solves the black/brown debate and looks great with everything!"
First Osgoode Marley Purchase
"I am very happy with my Joni Backpack! Seems to be well made and I like all the convenient zippered pockets."
My wonderful Joni backpack/purse
"My Joni purse/backpack is a little larger than that her predecessor but I love my new bag as much as the other. I love the convenience of hands free and have now mastered new locations for stowed articles. Not only is this a beautiful looking bag but it is also so practical. I use a cane and having a free hand is really key. I receive compliments on the beauty of this bag wherever I wear it. Thanks!"
