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.

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.

Perfect!
"I love this small backpack for everyday use! Compact, high quality, great design. I’ve been looking for this bag for a couple of years since I retired my ages-old leather backpack. The Teardrop did not disappoint! I had a minor problem that was quickly and cheerfully resolved."

So glad I found the
"So glad I found the same bag I bought a 15 years ago!"
Perfect daily backpack/purse
"After trying many options, I bought my second teardrop. Wore the first one out in only 5 years of daily use! This backpack fits close to the body, can be carried as a shoulder bag, has handy secure pockets to access keys and phone AND is flexible enough for a light jacket and/or warm scarf and snack for travel. Or you can fit it into a larger carryon. Just the best design and it’s beautifully executed with leather and colors."
This is my favorite purse!
"This is my second backpack. The first one lasted over 10 years before it got to beat up to be used for some fancier outings. I love the pockets and it takes the stress off my shoulders and puts it on my back. I was so glad that they still made this exact bag, with the same quality."
Love this bag!
"I bought the same bag in a different color about 7 years ago. So comfortable for a busy day in the city."

Q&A
- How much does this bag weigh?
- That bag empty weighs 1.2 lbs.
- Is the loop handle able to be pulled down inside the bag, or is it permanently sewn in the "up" position?
- It is sewn up. If you were to fold it down the backpack would not close properly.
