Crafted for function & style

Every Fanlu piece starts with carefully chosen leather and hardware. We cut, stitch, and finish with the intention that your bag or wallet will travel with you for years – softening, developing a unique patina, and telling your story along the way.

No loud logos. No fast fashion trends. Just considered design, practical layouts, and leather that feels better the more you use it.

How a Fanlu bag comes together

From the first sketch to the final stitch, each piece passes through a considered process so it feels good the day you receive it – and better years from now.

Step 01

Selecting hides

We start with leather that shows natural character – not plastic-like coatings that hide every mark.

Step 02

Pattern & cut

Each pattern is laid by hand to respect the grain and minimise waste, then cut to keep panels clean and strong.

Step 03

Stitch & build

Panels, pockets and straps are stitched with durable thread, reinforced where bags carry the most weight.

Step 04

Finish & pack

Edges are burnished, hardware checked, and every piece is packed so it arrives ready to use – not crumpled.

Care, repairs & gifting

Leather should be lived in, not kept “for best”. We design Fanlu pieces so they can handle real life – and we’re happy to help keep them in shape as the years go by.

If your bag ever needs a refresh, a stitch repaired or hardware replaced, you can reach out and we’ll talk through the best way to get it back to its best.

A light clean with a soft cloth and occasional conditioning is usually all your leather needs. Avoid soaking, harsh chemicals, and long hours in direct sunlight.
We offer repair support for stitching, hardware and straps on Fanlu products, because throwing away a good bag over a small fault doesn’t sit right with us.
Many of our pieces are chosen as milestone gifts – graduations, promotions, new roles and anniversaries. Packaged thoughtfully and made to be used for years, not months.
