What to Consider

Materials & Construction

·Cotton — Breathable and comfortable. Standard cotton softens with wear but may shrink. Look for ringspun or combed cotton for smoother, more durable fabric.
·Leather — Quality leather develops character and a patina with age — it gets better, not worse. Can last decades with basic maintenance.
·Vegetable-tanned — Tanned using natural bark and plant extracts rather than chromium chemicals. Stiff at first but molds to your body over time. Ages beautifully with a patina unique to you.
·Made by Nancybird Pty Ltd in Australia.

·Cotton — Machine washable. Gets softer with every wash. Tumble dry low to minimize shrinkage.
·Leather — Condition every 3-6 months to prevent drying and cracking. Avoid prolonged water exposure. Store in a breathable bag, never plastic.
·⚠ Avoid "bonded leather" or "genuine leather" — these are the lowest grades. Bonded leather is essentially glued scraps that peel and flake within 1-2 years. Look for "full-grain" or "top-grain" for real longevity.

Sustainability

·Vegetable-tanned — Uses natural tannins instead of chromium chemicals, making it significantly more environmentally responsible. Chrome tanning produces toxic waste; vegetable tanning does not.

Cost Per Use

·Cotton — Cotton is affordable but has a shorter lifespan than wool or linen. Organic and ringspun cotton cost slightly more but hold up noticeably longer.
·Leather — A well-made leather bag or boot can last 10-20 years, making the cost per year very low compared to replacing synthetic alternatives every 1-2 years.
·Priced around $275 (midpoint of $150–$400 for Bags). At ~15 uses/month, this hits the $1-per-use "worth it" mark in 1.5 years — and falls to roughly 31¢ per use across a 5-year lifespan.
