Care & Cleaning

How to clean your bags:

In a world of babies and children it is inevitable that you may experience some spills or accidents with your backpacks or beach bag so don't stress.

We have put together some quick tips on how to care for your products from H&N Label to ensure they last you throughout your journey.

Go-To Labelled Backpack

Material: Our organised backpack is made of water-resistant mixed blend polyester & canvas material. Our water-resistant treatment should save your bag from most spills getting through the first layer however if they do sneak though:
Stains: Use a 1/3 white vinegar to 2/3 water mix to wet the stain. Try not to do any harsh scrubbing as this may leave a mark. 
Hand wash in water and a little washing powder, rinse thoroughly then leave to dry in the sun.
Machine wash - you can machine wash the backpack on a delicates setting if you  have a wash bag big enough to fit it in. Then hang in the sun to air dry.

TIP: We suggest to use the pram clips to hang on the clothes line.

DO NOT USE SOFTNERS OR HARSH DETERGENTS & DO NOT TUMBLE DRY 

Beach Bag

Material: Our organised beach bag is made of water-resistant mixed blend polyester & canvas material the same as our Go-to labelled backpack.
Our water-resistant treatment should save your bag from most spills getting through the first layer however if they do sneak though:

Stains: Use a 2/8 white vinegar to 6/8 water mix to wet the stain. Try not to do any harsh scrubbing as this may leave a mark. Then- 
Remove the bottom section, detach cooler bag, remove cross body strap 
Hand wash in water and a little washing powder, rinse thoroughly then leave to dry in the sun.

Machine wash - you can machine wash the main beach bag on a delicates setting if you  have a wash bag big enough to fit it in. Then hang in the sun to air dry. Do not machine wash cooler bag.

Luxury Vegan Leather Backpack & Handbag

Material: Our Faux Leather is made of a mixture of several materials to ensure high quality & durability. The main materials blended are cotton, polyester, polyurethane with a vinyl coating to ensure it can withstand spills and wipe clean easily. This is often referred to as Vegan Leather because it resembles the great look, feel & quality of real leather without cruelty to animals.

Clean: Use white vinegar & water mix on a soft cloth to wipe clean and hang in a shady area fully unzipped to dry thoroughly. If you have a strong odour use more white vinegar and allow to dry which will remove the smell. 

Stains: The best way to remove stains of any kind is to use “Isopropyl Alcohol” known as “IPA”. This is a high quality surface cleaning with a high quick evaporative rate meaning it will not harm your bags. Spray direct onto stain and use a soft cleaning cloth to wipe and repeat and wipe with water.

Do not submerge your bag in water, do not machine wash.

Tip: Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun or leaving your backpack in hot cars for prolonged periods of time. Do not place your bag down onto a hard surface like concrete with the metal pram clips face down as these will scratch. There are stoppers on the bottom so you can stand your bag upright. 

TIP: We suggest to use the pram clips to hang on the clothes line.
