Iris Umhängetasche in Schwarz

Q: What is the LaBante Iris Shoulder Bag?

A: The Iris is a vegan shoulder bag from LaBante London, a British brand founded in 2011, co-designed with artist Iris Scott. It's made from plant-based vegan materials, with no PVC and no animal hide. The lining is made from recycled plastic bottles, and the strap is hand-painted. It's PETA-Certified and made under SEDEX-audited working conditions.

Q: How many ways can I carry the Iris?

A: Three. Wear it on your shoulder, as a crossbody, or take off the strap and use it as a clutch.

Q: How long will the Iris last?

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

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

A: No. It's made to avoid the smell and cracking common in cheap vegan bags. Keep the painted strap dry so the art stays sharp.

Q: Is the Iris water-resistant?

A: It handles light rain and small splashes fine. If it gets wet, wipe it dry and let it air dry.

Q: How do I clean and store the Iris?

A: Wipe the bag with a soft, damp cloth. Keep the painted strap dry. Store it in its gift box or dust bag. For stubborn stains use a leather wipe.

Q: Who painted the Iris strap?

A: US artist Iris Scott. She paints each strap by hand, so no two bags are exactly alike.

Q: Is the Iris an eco-friendly bag?

A: Yes. It's made without animal parts, and the lining reuses old plastic bottles. It ships in a plastic-free box with a hidden note that says "And she persisted."

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 Iris a good gift for someone who isn't vegan?

A: Yes. It comes gift-boxed with one-of-a-kind art, so it feels special no matter who opens it. It’s quiet luxury. It's stocked at Nordstrom.com, or buy it at labante.com, with free US shipping on orders over $150.

Cleaning Instructions for the Iris Shoulder Bag:

1. Regular Cleaning:
   Gently wipe your Iris Cruelty free Shoulder Bag with a damp, soft cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals that could harm the sustainable materials.
2. Leather Conditioning:
   The Iris Shoulder Bag is made from eco-friendly microfibre and can benefit from regular conditioning, much like traditional leather. Use a high-quality, vegan leather conditioner to maintain the bag’s softness and prevent cracking. Apply the conditioner with a clean, soft cloth, working in circular motions, and allow it to absorb fully into the material.
3. Deep Cleaning:
   For more thorough cleaning, use a dedicated vegan leather cleaner to treat tougher spots. Follow up with a conditioning product to restore the bag’s texture and luster.
4. Shape Maintenance:
   When not in use, store your bag in the protective dust bag provided. Stuff it with clean paper or a soft cloth to help retain its shape.
5. Storage:
   Keep the bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and humidity, to preserve its color and material quality.
