What to Consider

Materials & Construction

·Leather — Quality leather develops character and a patina with age — it gets better, not worse. Can last decades with basic maintenance.
·Suede — Softer and more flexible than full-grain leather, but more susceptible to stains and water damage. Not ideal for wet climates or heavy daily use.
·Canvas — Heavy-duty woven fabric that resists tearing and abrasion. Waxed canvas adds water resistance and develops character with age.
·Made by Poppy Barley in Canada.

Good to Know

Poppy Barley demonstrates genuine commitment to organic materials and ethical sourcing, but we could not find extensive evidence of reinforced construction details (bar-tacks, gussets), formal repair programs, or a formal lifetime warranty.…

·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.
·Suede — Apply a suede protector spray before first wear. Brush with a suede brush to restore nap. Avoid water and salt.

Cost Per Use

·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.
·Suede — Suede looks great but requires more maintenance and has a shorter effective lifespan than full-grain leather.
·Priced around $30 (midpoint of under $50 for Accessories). At ~12 uses/month, this hits the $1-per-use "worth it" mark in 3 months — and falls to roughly 4¢ per use across a 5-year lifespan.
