A Glimpse into the History of Bag Carrying

Canvas bags, often made from hemp or linen, were widespread across various social classes in the Middle Ages and early modern period. To increase resistance to inclement weather, the canvas was sometimes impregnated with beeswax or various oils. These bags were an essential part of the equipment for pilgrims, soldiers, craftsmen, and merchants on their travels. It was not uncommon for secret pockets to be sewn into the lining or inner folds for safeguarding coins or other valuable small items from prying eyes.

Caring for Your New Canvas and Leather Pouch

To ensure this combined canvas and leather pouch serves you for as long as possible and retains its original appearance, pay attention to the following recommendations:

• Canvas Part: Remove minor dirt dry with a soft brush. If necessary, spot clean stains with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid complete soaking and excessive scrubbing.
• Leather Parts: Regularly treat the leather elements with a suitable leather conditioner or balm to keep them supple and protected from cracking. Shield from prolonged exposure to moisture.
• Drying: If the pouch becomes damp, allow it to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and sources of intense heat. Do not tumble dry.
• Storage: When not in use, keep the pouch in a dry and well-ventilated place.

Definitely do not wash the pouch in a washing machine or use aggressive chemical cleaners. Also, protect it from being overfilled with very heavy or sharp objects that could damage the material or seams.
