Repairs & Product Care

GUARANTEE

The majority of Clare V. products are handmade in the United States. To reduce waste, all parts of the hide are used in crafting our bags and so there may be slight color and grain variations, which are characteristic of the natural leather and individual to each item. These leathers will only improve with age and use.

We proudly offer a guarantee that every Clare V. purchase, from Clare V. online, Clare V. stores, or one of our authorized retailers, meets our high standards of quality. This guarantee is a two-year repair policy for the structural function of our bags under normal wear and tear and anything that may be the result of any manufacturing defects. All jewelry made by us has a one-year warranty against manufacturer defects. Cosmetic issues are not covered under our repair policy. Apparel, sample sale purchases, and retailer-exclusive items are not covered under our repair policy. Proof of purchase is required. 

Please direct any inquiries about our repair policy or to submit a repair request for your Clare V. bag to info@clarev.com. Request must include images of the perceived damage as well as proof of purchase (i.e. order number).

CLEANING/CARING FOR YOUR CLARE V. BAG

Our best recommendation for cleaning your Clare V. leather good is to take it to a trusted shoemaker or cleaners specializing in leather. Avoid exposing your bag to water and moisture.

ABOUT LEOPARD AND OTHER HAIR-ON LEATHERS

Our Hair-On bags are made with real calf hair. Like any item made with natural hair, it is delicate and can be susceptible to subtle damage or thinning over time caused by friction during use. This is not a defect in the leather or production of the bag, therefore these are not covered by our 2 year repair warranty. We recommend that you do not wear your bag with the hair turned towards your body where friction is more likely to occur. Please handle with care.

ABOUT NATURAL, UNDYED LEATHER

Natural undyed leather is a “naked” leather, which is untreated. Its natural beauty and texture darken and change over time as the leather is exposed to sunlight and handling. Marks on the leather are part of the “naked” leather and will fade over time as the leather darkens and ages.

ABOUT NUBUCK LEATHER

The beauty of nubuck comes from its natural and naked finish. Therefore, it can be susceptible to water damage, staining and color transfer. You may treat nubuck with a protectant to minimize these natural reactions.

SHORTENING OF STRAPS/CUSTOM STRAP LENGTHS

We are unable to shorten straps or make straps in custom lengths. If you find your strap is too long, we suggest taking it to a trusted shoemaker to have it shortened.

How long will cookies remain on my computer or mobile device?

The length of time that a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies last until you stop browsing and persistent cookies last until they expire or are deleted. Most of the cookies we use are persistent and will expire between 30 minutes and two years from the date they are downloaded to your device. See the section below on how to control cookies for more information on removing them before they expire.
