Care for your leather

Leather is full-aniline, no surface coating. It will absorb water if soaked. If your slip gets caught in the rain, wipe dry with a soft cloth and condition with leather food once dry.

To clean: use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid alcohol-based cleaners. The leather will deepen and develop character over time, this is the point.

Flat. Simple. Slip it in.

The classic

Flat. Simple. Slip it in.

The Laptop Slip is for people who already have the bag. It just needs a leather layer between the laptop and everything else.

Laptop Slip FAQ

The questions we get most often, answered honestly by the workshop.

How does the Repair-for-Life Promise work? +
If a seam goes through normal use, send it back. We assess, repair and return, usually within 2-3 weeks. Wear and tear (scratches, leather softening, colour deepening) isn't a defect; that's the leather doing what it's supposed to do.
Will the leather scratch? +
Yes, gently. It's full-aniline leather with no surface coating. Light scuffs are part of the character and will fade or blend in with use.
Can I personalise it? +
Yes, we offer name or initial debossing on our corporate-gifts programme and on DTC orders above R5,000. Email info@rowdy.co.za to arrange.
Which size should I pick? +
13-14 inch fits MacBook Air 13, MacBook Pro 13/14 and most 13-14 inch laptops. 15-16 inch fits MacBook Pro 15/16 and most 15-16 inch laptops. Measure your laptop's diagonal if you're unsure.
Payflex and PayJustNow, how do they work? +
Both let you split the price into interest-free instalments. Payflex is 4 payments over 6 weeks; PayJustNow is 3 monthly payments. Choose either at checkout. No interest if you pay on time.
Shipping and returns? +
Free local shipping over R1,500, 2-5 working days. International R800 flat, 5-10 working days. 10-day returns, free in South Africa. Custom-debossed slips can't be returned.
How heavy is it? +
About 250g for the 13-14, 350g for the 15-16.
How do I care for the leather? +
Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap when needed. Condition with leather food every few months. Avoid alcohol-based cleaners. Let it dry naturally if it gets wet.
