Before you commission

QUESTIONS.

Build time, leather care, hardware and personalization — the things worth knowing before a bag is cut for you.

Ask us something else
How long does my Weekender take to build?

Every bag is cut after you order it. Production runs 3–4 weeks from the moment you confirm your configuration, plus shipping. Personalization is applied at the end of the build, so it does not add time on top of that window.

Can I change my configuration after ordering?

Yes, within 48 hours of ordering. Write to us with your order number and we will re-confirm the specification before it enters the cutting queue. After the hide is cut, the configuration is locked.

How do I care for full-grain leather?

Wipe with a dry cloth after travel and let it dry away from direct heat. Condition two or three times a year with a neutral leather cream — a little, worked in with your hands. Full-grain darkens and softens with use; the marks it picks up are the point, not a defect.

What happens if it gets wet?

Blot it, do not rub, and let it air dry at room temperature. Water spotting usually evens out as the hide dries and is conditioned. Avoid radiators, hair dryers and sun — heat is what actually ruins leather.

How durable is the hardware?

Solid metal zippers, feet, D-rings and buckles, set into reinforced leather with bar-tack stitching at every stress point. Brass will patina, gunmetal will burnish at the edges. Hardware failures inside two years of normal travel are repaired or replaced by us.

What can I put on the personalization?

Up to 24 characters: a full name, initials or a short phrase. It is debossed and finished in a tone matched to your hardware. We will not run anything hateful, and we may come back to you if the length will not sit well in the placement you picked.

Where can the mark go?

Side panel for something you want seen, handle tab for something quieter, or the interior leather patch alongside your edition number if you want it kept private.

Is personalization returnable?

A personalized bag is made for one owner, so it is not returnable unless it arrives faulty or does not match the configuration you confirmed. Manufacturing faults are covered — contact us and we will make it right.

What does the edition number mean?

Only 200 Babylon Weekenders will ever be built. Your number is reserved when you commission the bag, stamped into the interior plaque, and listed on the edition register. Once the run closes, it closes — no restock, no markdown.
