They are water-resistant, easy to clean, and come in a range of beautiful colors to match any outfit. But like any handbag, they need proper care to keep them looking fresh and stylish, which is why we are going to to help you out with how to clean a Fenn Bag.
If you want to keep your Fenn Bag in top shape, here’s everything you need to know about how to clean a Fenn Bag.
Cleaning the Inner Lining
The inner canvas lining of a Fenn Bag is designed for easy removal, making cleaning simple and hassle-free. Over time, dust, sand, and everyday spills can build up, so regular cleaning keeps your bag looking and smelling fresh.
- Remove the Inner Lining – Unscrew the four black grommets that hold the canvas inner in place. Be sure to store the grommets somewhere safe so they don’t get lost.
- Hand Wash in Warm Soapy Water – Use a mild detergent and gently scrub the inner lining. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the fabric.
- Rinse Thoroughly – Make sure all soap residue is removed by rinsing the lining in clean water.
- Air Dry Completely – Lay the canvas inner flat to dry naturally before reinserting it into your bag.
Cleaning the Rope Handles
Fenn Bags often come with stylish rope handles, adding to their effortless yet chic design. These handles can pick up dirt and oils from regular use, so giving them a refresh will help maintain their look.
- Unscrew the Inner Screws – Just like the canvas inner, the rope handles can be removed by unscrewing the black inner screws. Keep these screws in a safe place.
- Hand Wash or Machine Wash – The handles can be washed by hand using warm water and mild detergent. Alternatively, place them inside a laundry bag and run them through a gentle hand-wash cycle in your washing machine.
- Let Them Air Dry – Do not use a dryer, as high heat can weaken the rope fibers. Instead, let them air dry completely before reattaching them to your bag.
Cleaning the Outer Shell
The exterior of a Fenn Bag is made from durable, water-resistant material that is easy to maintain.
- Wipe Down with a Damp Cloth – Use a soft cloth with warm, soapy water to remove dirt and stains.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals – Do not use bleach, strong detergents, or abrasive scrubbing pads, as they may damage the finish.
- Dry with a Soft Towel – Pat dry with a towel or let the bag air dry naturally.
