Everything you need to know about ordering, shipping, returns, and caring for your handcrafted pieces.
Ready-to-ship items are typically processed and shipped within 2–3 business days. Once your order has shipped, you'll receive a confirmation email with tracking information.
For made-to-order or custom pieces, production time will vary. Please refer to the product description or contact us for an estimated completion date.
We want you to love your purchase. If you're not completely satisfied, ready-to-ship items may be returned within 30 days of delivery.
To be eligible for a return, items must:
- Be unused and in their original condition
- Include all original tags and packaging
- Be free from signs of wear or damage
Customers are responsible for return shipping costs unless the item arrives damaged, defective, or we made an error with your order.
Please Note: Due to the handcrafted nature of our products, slight variations in leather grain, fabric placement, texture, and natural markings are not considered defects. These unique characteristics are part of what makes every Uwakstar Designs piece one of a kind.
Custom, personalized, and made-to-order items are final sale and cannot be returned.
Yes! Every Uwakstar Designs piece is thoughtfully handcrafted in our Texas studio. From cutting materials to stitching and finishing, each item is carefully made with attention to detail.
Because every piece is handcrafted, slight variations in fabric placement, leather grain, and natural textures are part of what makes each item unique.
Production times vary depending on the design and whether the item is ready to ship or made to order.
Most made-to-order pieces are completed within 1–3 weeks. During busy seasons or holidays, production may take slightly longer. If you need your order by a specific date, please contact us before placing your order, and we'll do our best to accommodate your request.
Our leather products are made to last with proper care.
To keep your bag looking its best:
- Store it in a cool, dry place.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and moisture.
- Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.
- Use a quality leather conditioner occasionally to maintain softness and prevent drying.
- Avoid overloading your bag to help preserve its shape.
- Natural leather develops character over time, making each piece even more beautiful with use.
