Built to Last. Made to Be Loved.
Your Joobran bag is more than just an accessory — it’s a lifelong companion. With a little care, it will age gracefully and serve you for years to come. Here’s how to ensure it stays in excellent condition, adventure after adventure.
General Maintenance
There’s a quiet strength stitched into every Joobran bag — a confidence that comes from premium materials and rugged design. We build our bags to endure the outdoors, but lasting beauty requires thoughtful care.
Cleaning Instructions
-
Use a soft or medium-bristle brush to gently remove dirt or debris.
-
Avoid metal brushes — they’re too harsh. A toothbrush works wonders for hard-to-reach areas.
-
Plain water often does the trick. Only use a mild detergent if needed, and always sparingly.
Waxed Canvas Maintenance
Over time, your waxed canvas bag may begin to dry out — a sign it’s ready for a refresh.
To re-wax:
-
Gently warm the canvas and wax (a hairdryer works well).
-
Rub in a small amount of wax using a clean cloth.
-
Apply light heat to help it absorb, then let it cool and dry.
-
Repeat if needed, but don’t overdo it — a little goes a long way.
Leather Treatment
Leather gains character with age, but still benefits from the right care.
-
Use a quality leather conditioner — shoe polish often works well without over-softening.
-
Be mindful with load-bearing straps; over-conditioning can weaken them.
-
Apply several light coats instead of one heavy one, and always wipe away excess.
-
Remember: less is more.
A Joobran bag is tough by design — but like all things worth keeping, it deserves a little care.
Treat it well, and it will journey with you for a lifetime.
