FAQ

What Makes Your Leather Special?

At HIDES, we craft premium leather goods using full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather, sourced as a byproduct of the meat industry. Unlike chrome tanning, vegetable tanning is a natural, eco-friendly process that leaves no harmful waste. We proudly partner with expert artisans from Canada to Pakistan, ensuring top-quality craftsmanship.

From bags to jackets to accessories, our leather is designed to be used, abused, and last a lifetime. Plus, nothing is made in China—every product is built with care and integrity.

What Sets HIDES Apart?

With 30 years of family expertise in leather, HIDES launched in 2015 to offer heirloom-quality, personalizable pieces that last a lifetime. Our products are crafted in limited batches, ensuring exclusivity and attention to detail. Featuring extensive interior organization, hidden pockets, and expandable travel-friendly designs, HIDES stands out for its rugged yet classic style. With 5,000+ 5-star reviews, our commitment to quality speaks for itself.

Does HIDES Give Back?

Yes, we believe in making a positive impact. We’ve partnered with One Tree Planted to plant a tree for every product sold, helping to offset our carbon footprint. We’re committed to giving back and making a difference with every item sold.

How Much Is Shipping?

We offer free shipping to the U.S. and Canada on all orders. International shipping is available at calculated rates. We aim to ship all orders within 1-2 business days to ensure timely delivery.

What’s the Return/Exchange Policy?

We accept returns and exchanges of new, unworn products with original tags within 30 days of delivery. Please note that personalized items are non-returnable. Simply contact us at info@hidesleather.com, and we will assist you.

Is Personalization Free?

Yes! We offer free personalization on all items. Simply add your personalization details during checkout in the laser engraving section, or email us at info@hidesleather.com with your request.

How Do I Care for My Leather?

Our leather is designed to be treated rough—used and abused—its true beauty comes out as it ages and develops a rich patina. Don’t worry about tossing your bag in the trunk or on the floor; it only gets better with use.

If you'd like to be proactive in the aging process, use leather lotion and protectors. Clean your leather with a soft, damp cloth and apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep it in top condition.

Is Your Leather Waterproof?

Our leather is naturally water-resistant, but it is not fully waterproof. While it can withstand light moisture or rain, we recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to water. If your leather gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally and apply a leather conditioner to restore its natural oils.

Thank you Hides!

Fantastic quality and really beautiful bag! Fits my chunky school laptop perfectly! And they did a wonderful job of the customizations I asked! I can’t wait to wear it and for the leather to soften up a bit! Only thing that bummed me out was that the picture looks like the interior of the cover sleeve is yellow, which was a big selling feature for me bc I l love the color yellow. It arrived and wasn’t yellow. They a shouldn’t picture it yellow if it doesn’t arrive yellow!

Love this bag

Very impressed from the start. Packaging was top class. Leather is great. Nice leather strap, fasteners are solid and reinforced. Very well constructed. Even has a spacer in the bottom to keep the bottom of the bag flat (to give it more stability) and a solid support bar along the top inside of the bag so reinforce the handle, which also keep the shape as well. Overall, very impressed with the quality of both the leather and the workmanship. Only used it for two weeks, but durability and wear is TBD. Great first impression. My brother actually ordered the same bag after seeing mine.

Heavy

The bag looks great and leather seems to be good quality. The bag is quite heavy though, even while empty. The strap has no padding on it, so even with just a laptop and a few files in it, the strap digs in to my shoulder and the bag becomes quite clunky to carry. I also find the clasps a little finicky, and can’t easily open the bag while wearing it.

I received the leather messenger bag that I ordered and it is so beautiful no words can even explain! the quality and the detail on it are impeccable. Apart from that, the customer service of HIDES are out of this world.

Great Product

I ordered this production in the Saddle Brown and Antique Brown for my husband and his business partner and could not be happier with the product. I also had a company logo and name added to the bag for a more personalized affect and it turned out great. Would highly recommend this company as I did a lot of research to find the quality product and customer service was exceptional as well.

Excellent quality bag

So pleased with the experience and purchase of this bag. The quality is excellent. I called to reached out to the company to inquire about some of the features of the bag. They were excellent to deal with. I talked to someone each time I called, and received prompt message replies. The item only took a couple extra days to arrive beyond the projected delivery date as I changed the shipping carrier after the order was placed. Canada Post was slow at processing at their end. I would recommend buying from these folks!! Amazing customer service, great quality, and great warranty.

Gorgeous

Absolutely love this bag. Conditioned it after receiving it but leather is thick and I can tell this bag is made to last. Large enough to carry everything I need to for work on the go but not so huge that it becomes cumbersome. Very excited about this bag.

I love this bag! Classy, durable & very very nice colour! Very firm it could stand on its own & when wearing the shoulder strap when you’re out, bringing the bag to the front to get something out of the bag is effortless. A small zipper pocket somewhere on the inside would be nice but overall very happy with my bag.

Patrick Horn
Awesome quality and very practical!

Awesome quality, especially for the price. I’m able to fit a Keychron C1 keyboard, Inspiron 15” laptop with charger, and a wireless mouse in the main compartment (keyboard basically maxes out the available width and length, but I have some more room height wise) with space for documents, a writing pad, and various small items like AirPods in the other sleeves. On the negative side, the shoulder strap is pretty bare bones. It’s thick and sturdy, but also very plain. Comfort level is fine, but coming from a laptop backpack, it’s less comfortable than I’m used to. All said, I’m very pleased with the purchase.

Just ok

The leather is good on the product but the color was not as it looked in the pictures (very brown instead of the rich tones in the picture). I found the size to be smaller than advertised and the layout of the pockets was challenging to hold pens, pencils and any small items. Overall, the quality of the leather is probably worth the money but the size is on the smaller size. For an everyday business briefcase, I would not recommend.

Hi Rob,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our product. We appreciate your feedback and would like to provide some additional information that may address some of the concerns you raised.

The Coarse Messenger in Saddle is made of vegetable tanned full grain distressed leather, which means that each skin has its unique color variations and textures. We do our best to represent the color accurately in our pictures, but we understand that there may be variations from skin to skin. The leather is expected to age gracefully overtime to a darker, smoother and shinier appearance and feel.

Regarding the size of the bag, we can confirm that it is true to size and comfortably fits a MacBook Pro 16' in its dedicated laptop sleeve. We take pride in designing our products to meet the needs of our customers.

Regarding the pen sleeves, they are designed to hold all regular-sized pens and pencils. We apologize if you found them challenging to use and will take your feedback into consideration as we continue to improve our products.

We appreciate your business and are committed to providing high-quality products that meet the needs of our customers. Thank you again for your review, and please don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any further questions or concerns.

Best regards,
Umair Raja, Hides Team
