One of the most common questions we get is, “how do I clean my Eve Cork handbag?”.

Although our cork handbags are inherently stain-resistant and anti-bacterial, you may still wish to clean your cork bag from time-to-time.

After using your Eve Cork product for a while, you may notice that your bag has picked up some color from your jeans or another article of your clothing. Since we use vegetable dyes to color our bags instead of chemicals to change the composition of our fabric, this is just the nature of the material. That said, any marking should come out with ease:

Step 1: With a dry towel, wipe off any visible dirt covering the surface of your cork bag.

Step 2: Fill an adequate sized dish or vessel with warm water. Add a few drops of mild dish soap or liquid detergent. The trick here is to make sure the water isn’t too bubbly.

Step 3: Take a clean towel and dip it into the solution. Wring it out to make sure it isn’t too wet. 

Step 4: Rub the surface of your cork bag with the wet towel. Make sure to cover the entire bag, and to get the places where dirt/markings are apparent. If you feel the need to, repeat the process until the difficult spots are gone.

Step 5: Allow your bag to dry!
