Moop bags are designed for daily wear and tear but, like any natural fiber fabric, cotton will take on stains if you encounter the unexpected coffee spill, or wine stain or any of the other myriad of things that can happen during life's daily adventures. When this happens, we wash with Otter Wax Canvas Cleaner then refinish with Otter Wax fabric wax.  This kit gives you all the tools to clean up your bag and add a fresh coat of wax.

INCLUDED IN KIT:

1 bar or wax
1 bottle of canvas cleaner
1 tampico cleaning brush
1 wooden smoothing/finishing paddle

DIRECTIONS: Using the included Tampico Cleaning Brush and a bowl of cool water to create a deep cleaning foam with the canvas cleaner for spot-cleaning your waxed, oiled, or untreated fabrics. • shake the canvas cleaner before each use • apply with brush or soft cloth • scrub directly into desired area • wipe clean with a dry, lint-free cloth • allow item to dry completely.  

Next, using the wax bar, rubbing in circular motions will create the right amount of heat to soften the wax and spread evenly into the top layer of fabric. You can also use a hair dryer if you want added heat. This is intended as a re-waxing agent for our cotton waxed canvas • thoroughly clean and dry your bag before applying the wax • rub into fabric to create friction • smooth out with the wooden paddle included in this kit to create a uniform finish • allow item to cure in a warm, dry place for at least 24 hours • reapply as often as necessary

2. About our fabrics
We purchase high quality fabrics from trusted, USA based sources.  Our years of manufacturing and carrying our bags have helped us hone in on what works best for our bags and holds up to daily use.  Here's what we are currently using:

 

Waxed Canvas

100% cotton canvas has wax integrated into the fibers during the weaving process and finished with a top coat of wax for added water resistance.  Waxed canvas has a distressed look that will age and change over time.  We source ours from a 7th generation family owned and operated manufacturer, an industry leader in coated fabrics.  Waxed canvas was originally developed in the late 1800's for long shore fishermen who needed to stay warm and dry.  We like that legacy.
Water resistance: High

 

Water Resistant Canvas

100% cotton canvas.  Much like waxed canvas, a water resistant coating is integrated into the fibers during the weaving process but, there is no top coat wax finish.  This results in a surface that is only slightly distressed and will look the same, day in and day out.  It has a water resistant coating which makes it extremely durable and able to withstand the elements, keeping the contents of your bag dry.
Water resistance: High

 

Corded Canvas

100% cotton canvas with a corded weave.  Corded canvas is similar to corduroy only it has no pile, does not pill and breaks in like your favorite denim.  Corded canvas has not been treated with any water resistant coatings.
Water Resistance: low

 

Brushed Canvas

100% cotton canvas with a slightly brushed surface. Soft to the touch. Our brushed canvas has not been treated with any water resistant coatings.
Water resistance: low

 

Cordura®

Cordura® is a high performance, highly water resistant fabric.  It is light weight, extremely durable and will not absorb water.  We use Cordura® brand nylon which is all made in the USA.
Water Resistance: High

 

Leather

Our leather comes from a handmade shoe manufacturer in upstate New York.  We have partnered with them to upcycle their scraps when we can.  The leather detailing may have marks and scars due to this process but, it will never lose structural integrity.  Leather hides are sourced from Horween, the famous Chicago tannery founded in 1905.

Our full leather bags are made from leather we custom designed, from color to finish with a small family owned and operated tannery based in Los Angeles, CA. We had the aging process in mind with this leather. It will break in and age for each person in a slightly different way, carrying the marks of your daily life as it builds character.

 

Wool Felt

Our wool felt is a dense industrial wool felt. 100% merino. German milled and dyed. Felt is shock absorbent and water resistant.
