4 out of 5 starsThe quality is great and as described. However, if you're looking for a small keychain, this isn't it! It's close to 5" from end to end. I checked to see if I misread the description but I did not. It's advertised as measuring 3.5". We'll probably risk opening it to shorten it.

Frequently asked questions
What is recycled leather?
Up to 75% of traditional leather is unused and often destined for landfill. All the leather used on our bags is manufactured from 1000's of tons of waste leather and made into a new, engineered product which is sustainable, durable and has the look and feel of real leather.
This manufacturing process combines traditional leather fibres without the use of unfriendly adhesives that can be harmful to the environment. Furthermore, it recycles 95% of the process water and waste streams are converted into energy which is fed back into the system.*
Not only that but our manufacturers are UK-based meaning an even more positive environmental impact by reducing our carbon-footprint and supporting local business.

The recycled leather we use in our products is a stain resistant, highly durable and fade resistant fabric. Like genuine leather it can crease (you may find creases in the leather due to the product being folded during shipping) but this is easily fixed by placing a cloth or towel over the creased area and gently ironing over it. Alternatively you can iron the bag from the inside out, using the lining material to protect the leather.
The recycled leather is strong and cleanable and has all the best characteristics of leather without the negative environmental impact of producing leather. If for any reason you need to clean the leather or cotton areas of your product simply wipe down with a damp soft cloth (like microfiber) then allow th
