Troubleshooting

Chain strap feels too long or too short.

The chain strap can be doubled up to create a shorter shoulder carry. For specific lengths, consider professional alteration if necessary, though this is not recommended for preserving brand integrity.

Leather appears dull or has minor scuffs.

Gently buff the affected area with a soft, dry cloth. For a slight sheen, a specialized leather conditioner for fine leather can be sparingly applied by a professional or with extreme care, following product instructions.

Magnetic snap closure is difficult to fasten.

Ensure there are no obstructions within the closure mechanism. If the issue persists, it may indicate a misalignment, which could require professional inspection.
