How to Take Care of Your Bag: Make It Last for Years

A bag is more than just an accessory — it’s part of your daily story. Whether it's a tote, a crossbody, or a backpack, your Bavency bag deserves to be treated with care. At Bavency, we believe in timeless pieces made to last. That’s why we’ve put together a few simple yet essential tips to help you take care of your bag and enjoy it for many years to come.

1. Clean It Gently

• Always use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to clean your bag.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking it in water.
• For leather bags, apply a leather conditioner every few months to keep the surface supple.
• For canvas, use a gentle brush or cloth with mild soap and water — then let it air dry naturally.

2. Protect It from Moisture and Sunlight

• Store your bag in a dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent discoloration or damage.
• Avoid placing it on wet surfaces or exposing it to rain.
• If it gets damp, pat dry with a clean cloth and allow it to air out completely.

3. Store It the Right Way

• Keep your bag in its dust bag or a soft cotton pillowcase when not in use.
• Avoid plastic bags — they can trap moisture and lead to mildew.
• To preserve its shape, stuff it lightly with tissue paper or clean fabric.

4. Don’t Overload It

• Respect the natural shape and structure of your bag.
• Overloading can stretch the material, damage zippers, or strain the stitching — reducing its lifespan.

5. Rotate and Rest

• If you use the same bag every day, it will wear out faster.
• Rotate between a few favourites to give them time to rest and recover their structure.

Final Thoughts

Caring for your bag is caring for your personal style. With a little love and attention, your Bavency bag will remain beautiful, functional, and timeless — just like the day you chose it.
