Q: How should I care for embroidered canvas and leather trim?
A: Embroidered canvas and leather trim benefit from gentle handling. Use a soft dry cloth or a very soft brush to remove surface dust, avoid oils, wipes, harsh cleaners, and excessive moisture, and keep the bag away from dark denim or other materials that may cause colour transfer. For existing stains or more delicate cleaning, a professional bag or leather specialist is the safest option.

Q: Is this a practical everyday Dior tote?
