1. Products

We use high quality, locally sourced Italian leather, which is traditionally tanned and lightly finished to protect the surface.

To ensure the durability of your bag, the lining is made of Alcantara. Because its fibers are extremely thin in structure, the upper layer of the fabric has a velvety soft feel. Alcantara is easy to clean and extremely durable.

All metal hardware is made in Italy of high-quality nickel-free brass with a gold finish.

We only offer a repair service if your item has a manufacturing fault. We do not accept other defects.

Occasionally it happens that items in our webshop cannot be shipped right away. When this happens, there will be a notification on our product page. In that case, it is possible to pre-order the item.  You can then place a pre-order; your shipment will take place as soon as that item is available.

All our bags are handcrafted in Tuscany, Italy by an atelier that is renowned for the expertise and craftsmanship of its artisans.

2. Order

Once you’ve received your shipping confirmation email, you can track your package on the corresponding shipping carrier’s website.

We process and complete orders as quickly as possible. If you wish to cancel or make any changes to your order, contact us at contact@la-saint.com as soon as possible after placing your order. Provided we haven’t dispatched the order, we’ll work with you to make any requested changes.

We are happy to help with damaged items. Please email us pictures, a brief description of the damage, the order number, and your shipping information to contact@la-saint.com. We will follow up as soon as possible. LA SAINT will determine the best solution and may ask to see a product in person before making a decision. The security tag must be attached to accept any returns. Please note that LA SAINT is not responsible for normal wear and tear, such as staining or damaged leather due to use.

Pre-order is a way to reserve a bag from an upcoming style or configuration, or if a bag is out of stock. The pre-order process is the same as our regular order process, however, the item will ship at a later date than when you purchase a bag that’s readily available. You will of course receive a shipping notification once your bag is on its way to you.

At LA SAINT, we aim to be as environmentally conscious as possible. By producing in limited quantities, we never have excess stock, keeping our waste level at an absolute minimum.

Because all of our bags are handmade, it may take around 6-8 weeks until your pre-order is shipped out. However, most of the time a production run will already be in place, which shortens the delivery time significantly.

4. Product care

  • Protect your bag from direct light, prolonged exposure to light, humidity, and extreme heat.
  • Store your bag in the protective cotton dust bag to avoid fading and to keep it dust free. To maintain its shape, keep your bag stuffed with fabrics, acid-free tissues or a handbag insert. Place it in an upright position. Do not overload your bag.
  • Take special care when handling the hardware and foil print logo. Avoid all contact with liquids, especially oily liquids like hand creams or lotions.
  • For light cleaning we recommend wiping your LA SAINT handbag with a soft, dry cloth. If your bag gets wet, wipe it dry and allow it to dry at room temperature. If you wish to deep clean your bag, you can leave it to a leather professional or use a professional leather cleaning agent. Be sure to test the product in an inconspicuous spot before applying it to the whole bag.
