Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The Coach Tabby 20 comes with two detachable straps, offering flexible styling. To attach a strap, simply clip the brass hardware on each end of the strap to the D-rings located on the sides of the bag. To detach, press the clip mechanism to release. The leather strap can be adjusted to your desired length by utilizing the buckle, allowing for comfortable shoulder or crossbody wear. The shorter strap is fixed in length, perfect for a short shoulder or hand carry.
Compatibility
This bag's blend of refined leather and bold animal print haircalf makes it a versatile accessory. It complements a wide range of outfits, from casual daytime ensembles like jeans and a sweater to more formal evening wear such as a cocktail dress. The brown colour family and animal pattern make it a strong statement piece that pairs well with neutral tones or can add an edgy contrast to bolder colours.
Care
Proper care will maintain the luxurious appearance and durability of your Tabby 20 bag.
- Leather: Gently wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use a high-quality leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for refined leather. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Haircalf: The haircalf portion requires delicate handling. Avoid rubbing or brushing against the nap. For light cleaning, gently brush with a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush *in the direction of the hair*. Avoid excessive moisture or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the texture and print. If the haircalf becomes wet, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth and allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Hardware: Polish the brass signature 'C' hardware and other metal accents with a soft, dry polishing cloth to maintain its shine.
- Storage: When not in use, store your bag in its dust bag to protect it from dust and scratches. Stuff the bag with tissue paper or bubble wrap to help it retain its structured shape and prevent creasing.
