Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the bag’s dimensions and what does it comfortably hold? A: Approximate measurements are 30 cm (H) × 27 cm (W) × 17 cm (D). It comfortably fits daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, a small water bottle, compact umbrella, sunglasses case and the included pouch. A4 documents fit vertically; smaller laptops or tablets may fit depending on their footprint—please measure your device to be sure.
Q: Is the body transparent and how can I keep contents discreet? A: Yes, the Canapa Vinyl is designed with a clear vinyl body. Use the included detachable pouch for valuables or items you prefer to keep out of sight, and consider smaller pouches to organise and conceal contents while maintaining a tidy look.
Q: How secure is the opening? A: The tote has an open top with a magnetic snap tab closure that helps keep the bag neatly closed during everyday use. For travel or crowded spaces, store valuables inside the pouch and keep the bag close to your body for added security.
Q: Is the vinyl waterproof? A: The vinyl surface is water-resistant and easy to wipe dry, but the seams and canvas/leather trims are not fully waterproof. Avoid heavy rain and prolonged moisture exposure, and always dry the bag thoroughly if it gets wet.
Q: Will the clear vinyl yellow or turn cloudy over time? A: Clear PVC/vinyl can discolour or haze with UV exposure, heat and general ageing. To minimise this, store the bag stuffed and away from direct sunlight or heat sources, wipe it clean regularly, and avoid contact with products like perfumes, hand sanitisers and makeup that may affect clarity.
Q: How do I clean and care for the vinyl and trims? A: Wipe the vinyl gently with a soft microfibre cloth dampened with lukewarm water and a drop of mild soap, then buff dry. Avoid alcohol, acetone, bleach and abrasive cleaners. Spot-clean canvas carefully with a damp cloth and mild soap, and nourish leather trims sparingly with a suitable leather conditioner, keeping products off the vinyl.
Q: Is the material prone to scratches, and how can I reduce wear? A: Vinyl is durable but can scratch. Avoid abrasive surfaces, overfilling and sharp objects. Use pouches to separate keys and metal items, rotate carry between the dual leather handles to distribute weight, and don’t exceed comfortable everyday loads.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This piece comes with a detachable black canvas pouch. All inclusions are listed under Accessories on this page; if an item isn’t listed, it is not included.
Q: Can it hold a laptop? A: Slim tablets and smaller laptops may fit; however, with a width of about 27 cm, many 13-inch laptops will be tight. Please compare your device’s dimensions with the bag’s interior before use or consider carrying a laptop sleeve separately.
Q: How should I store the bag when not in use? A: Empty and gently wipe the bag, stuff it with acid-free tissue to maintain shape, place it in a breathable dust bag, and store it upright in a cool, dark, dry place. Keep it away from dark textiles that may transfer colour onto the canvas/leather trims.
