Elm Shoulder Bag in Nude

Q: What is the LaBante Elm Shoulder Bag?

A: The Elm is a shoulder bag from LaBante London, a British brand founded in 2011. It's made from Blue Star plant-based leather, with no PVC and no animal hide. The lining is made from recycled plastic bottles.

Q: Can the Elm turn into a crossbody?

A: Yes. Take off the top handle and clip on the detachable strap. Now it's a crossbody bag.

Q: How long will the Elm last?

A: With normal use, the Elm lasts for years. It's backed by a 1-year LaBante warranty.

Q: Will the Elm peel, crack, or smell like plastic?

A: No. It's made to avoid the smell and cracking common in cheap vegan bags. Keep it dry and out of direct heat to protect the finish.

Q: Is the Elm water-resistant?

A: Its suede-like finish is more sensitive to water than smooth vegan leather. Keep it away from rain and spills. If it gets wet, let it air dry naturally.

Q: How do I clean and store the Elm?

A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. For marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Store it in its dust bag. For stubborn stains use a leather wipe.

Q: What makes the Elm stand out?

A: A clean flap with the LaBante LB logo and a custom lock. Simple, structured, and easy to dress up or down.

Q: Is the Elm an eco-friendly bag?

A: Yes. It's made without animal parts, and the lining reuses old plastic bottles.

Q: What is LaBante's returns and warranty policy?

A: 60-day returns from the date you buy it, and a 1-year warranty on every product. Returns are free in the US and UK.

Q: Is the Elm a good gift for someone who isn't vegan?

A: Yes. Most people can't tell it apart from real leather. It's stocked at Nordstrom.com, or buy it at labante.com, with free US shipping on orders over $150.
