About the material

ABOUT CACTUS LEATHER

Cactus leather is a real alternative to animal leather, made from a 100% natural and abundant resource in Mexico: the nopal cactus. This material is produced from organically grown cactus in Zacatecas, cultivated sustainably and free from toxic chemicals, phthalates, and PVC.

To create this material, organically grown nopales are harvested, cleaned, mashed, and sun-dried for three days before being processed. They are then dyed using natural pigments. The result is an organic, certified, and partially biodegradable plant-based leather.

It can last up to 10 years—about the same lifespan as animal leather.

One of the key characteristics of cactus leather is its matte finish and softness, which make it look and feel remarkably similar to animal leather.

Cactus leather is certified by PETA, USDA Organic, SGS, UKAS, DAkkS, and Öko-Garantie.

ABOUT THE COTTON GABARDINE

The cotton fabrics used in the Cargo Tote (both outer and lining) come from a Mexican supplier based in Mexico City and are made with Mexican cotton sourced from Chihuahua. This supplier specializes in 100% cotton textiles and creates innovative, high-quality fabrics for clients in Mexico, the U.S., Latin America, and Europe.

Both fabrics are 100% cotton and dyed using a reactive dyeing process, meaning the color is heat-fixed. The fabric is interlined with a type of gabardine known as “Brushed Gabardine,” bonded with an adhesive made from natural rubber.

This is a high-quality textile that balances durability and softness—perfect for everyday use.

Care instructions

SPECIAL CARE FOR CACTUS LEATHER

Cactus leather is a highly organic material, which means your bag needs special care:

  • Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces, as cactus leather can scratch or become damaged.
  • To keep your bag clean and in good condition, use a foam solution made with mild soap and remove it completely with a white cotton cloth dampened with water. Light colors may require more frequent cleaning.
  • Do not clean your bag with solvents such as alcohol, acetone, paint thinner, bleach, oils, vinegar, waxes, silicones, leather conditioners, or detergents, as these can cause permanent damage to the material.
  • Do not mark your bag with ink, as it may absorb into the material and cause a permanent stain.
  • For spills like beer, wine, juice, soda, liquor, coffee, tea, or chocolate, clean the stain as soon as possible using a mild shampoo-based cleaning solution. Then rinse with a cloth soaked in water to remove any residue. Prompt cleaning is especially important for colored liquids.
  • Avoid contact with oils, grease, makeup, sunscreen, or tanning oils. If this happens, clean the stain as soon as possible with mild liquid soap.

Cactus leather is treated to prevent color transfer to other materials. However, some accessories or garments with poor dye fixation may bleed and stain your bag. If this occurs, clean the stain immediately with a foam solution of neutral soap and a white cotton cloth. You can also use a 50/50 solution of water and chlorine-free disinfectant. Then rinse with water and let it dry.

SPECIAL CARE FOR COTTON GABARDINE

Although this fabric is highly durable, it will stay in better condition with proper care. Here are some special recommendations:

  • If your bag gets stained, clean it with neutral soap foam and a light-colored, slightly damp cloth to remove the soap.
  • If you need to wash it, first remove any chains, clasps, or accessories that could be damaged in the process.
  • We recommend handwashing the bag inside out to reduce wear and extend its lifespan.
  • You may also dry clean or take it to a professional cleaner.
  • Use only mild, neutral detergents. Do not use bleach, alcohol, or disinfectant products, as they may affect the finishes of the materials.
  • After washing or if the bag gets wet, remove excess moisture without rubbing by using a soft cloth, and let it air dry at room temperature.
  • When not in use, we recommend storing your bag in its fabric dust bag, making sure metal hardware is positioned so it does not leave marks on the fabric or cactus leather.

Muy funcional

Tiene mucho espacio y es muy resistente, se ve bastante cool, me gustaria que la correa que trae como accesorio realmente sea un accesorio, porque cuando la quito, siento que la bolsa pierde estilo. Algo que no me encanto fue el olor, huele raro y por mas que le pongo perfume no se quita ese olor curiosito.

Me encanto, un pequeño detalle

Me encantó la bolsa, super espaciosa, linda y de calidad.
Únicamente para una bolsa tan grande y que regularmente esta muy cargada, creo que lo ideal seria hacerle unas asas mas largas, debido a que se bajan (deslizan) recurrentemente.
