Your AFAR bag is built to age well. Use these steps to keep shape, color, and hardware in good condition.

Everyday use

• Do not overload. Weight pulls on seams and distorts the structure.
• Keep sharp objects away from the lining and corners.
• After rain, wipe dry and let air-dry at room temperature.

Cleaning

• Remove dust with a soft brush or dry cloth.
• For small marks on cotton canvas, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Do not soak. Do not scrub hard.
• Do not use bleach, solvents, or stain removers.
• Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
• Always air-dry. Keep away from heaters and direct sun while drying.

Leather and trim

• Wipe with a clean, dry cloth.
• If leather feels dry, apply a small amount of neutral leather conditioner, then buff lightly.
• Keep leather away from oils, alcohol-based products, and perfumes.

Hardware

• If metal gets wet, dry it right away to avoid spotting.
• If sand or dust builds up in zippers, brush it out gently, then run the zipper slowly.

Storage

• Store in a cool, dry place.
• Keep the bag in its dust bag, or in a breathable cotton pillowcase.
• Stuff lightly with paper or clean fabric to hold shape.
• Do not store in plastic.

Repairs

If you need a repair, keep the bag and send photos of the area. We guide you to the best fix, including replacement parts when available.

AFAR makes travel goods in Ethiopia, in small batches. We focus on long use, fair work, and responsible sourcing.

Materials

• Cotton canvas from Ethiopian smallholder cooperatives.
• Leather and horn sourced as by-products, never taken for fashion alone.
• Natural, low-impact finishes where possible, with clear material specs on each product page.

People and work

We produce in Addis Ababa with skilled local artisans, many of them women. We invest in training, stable jobs, and a workplace built on respect and transparency. AFAR is part of the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO).

Longevity over volume

• Strong stitching and reinforced stress points.
• Hardware chosen for durability and replacement.
• Repair support, so your bag stays in use longer.

Less waste

We keep packaging minimal and protective. We work to reduce offcuts and re-use materials when the result meets our quality standards.

Each AFAR product uses a mix of materials, lining, and hardware chosen for long use.
For the exact materials on your item, check the product description and the specs shown above.

What you will always find here

• Main materials, lining, and trims listed clearly
• Hardware type, such as zippers, buckles, and rings
• Functional details, such as pockets, closures, straps, and handles
• Finish notes, when relevant, such as waxed canvas, natural dyes, or vegetable-tanned leather

Natural variations

Small changes in grain, shade, and texture are normal with natural materials. These details make each piece unique.

Many AFAR bags work well for travel, including carry-on use. Airline rules vary by route, carrier, and fare type.

Before you fly

• Check your airline’s current cabin size and weight limits
• Measure your bag packed, not empty
• Soft bags compress, rigid packing does not

Useful tips

• Keep heavy items close to the base and near the body side for better balance
• Close zippers fully before handling
• Use the shoulder strap only within a comfortable load range to reduce stress on seams and hardware
