Frequently Asked Questions
The bags are made from the finest vegetable-tanned cowhide from Germany and Italy. The special vintage finish ensures a surface full of character, which develops an elegant patina over time. This creates unique, long-lasting companions with classic Oberwerth style.
The Vintage Line leather has a special finish that makes it resistant to dirt. Small scratches or imperfections are best treated with the Recovery Cream - it nourishes, impregnates and has a color-activating effect so that signs of wear can be easily polished away and the leather regains its original shine.
For light soiling, the Care & Protect Spray in combination with a soft cloth is sufficient to gently clean the bag.
All bags in the Oberwerth Vintage Line are protected by the lifetime Oberwerth guarantee after registration. It covers all functional components - for long-lasting enjoyment of your handmade camera bag. Naturally occurring patina or color changes in the leather are an expression of genuine quality, not a defect.
Use the inside dimensions of the bag and your typical set-up (body + lens(es)) as a guide. The padded divider pads can be individually adjusted so that the Leica M, Q and SL as well as other mirrorless systems sit securely and compactly. Plan a little extra depth for longer fixed focal lengths. Our team will be happy to help you and recommend the optimum configuration for your equipment on request.
