Product, Sizing & Care

All of our product sizes are listed in the product information on each product page.

Sorry! We are completely online. However, feel free to send our Customer Happiness Team a mail on fynbos.leather@gmail.com if you had any questions regarding our products (sizing, material, etc).

Every piece is made from genuine full-grain leather — the finest, most durable layer of the hide, which ages into a beautiful natural patina.

Wipe weekly with a dry, soft cloth, moisturise with our Leather Cream, let any spills dry naturally (don’t rub), and avoid harsh chemicals. See our Leather Care page for more.

Yes — because it’s natural full-grain leather, small variations in grain and tone are normal and part of its character. No two pieces are identical.

Yes — every item is proudly designed and handcrafted in South Africa.
