Where are your goods manufactured?

Over the years, we’ve built long-standing relationships with our production partners, each one rooted in trust and a commitment to excellence. The Ghurka original collection is still crafted in the same factory in Norwalk, CT that produced the very first commercially available Ghurka product — the Express No. 2.

Around the world, you’ll find more skilled artisans that we are proud to call our production partners. In the hills of Florence, Italy, a number of women’s handbags and select silhouettes are woven together with our Ghurka heritage look. And in Ubrique, Spain, a town with hundreds of years of leather craftsmanship as its legacy, our wallets and other small leather goods come to life.

For more information on specific items, please contact Ghurka Customer Service at 1-833-782-6062 or customerservice@ghurka.com

What is the size of my item?

You can find the dimensions of each product listed under “Product Specifications” on the product detail pages within the website. Here is a link to a product detail page for example purposes: https://ghurka.com/collections/handbag/products/rover-no-66-vintage-chestnut-leather

Where do you source materials used to craft your goods?

We partner with leather tanneries from Germany, Italy and the United States. We use full-grain hides that are designed and tanned with the goal of lasting well past a product’s normal lifetime. The origins of our zippers, buckles, rivets and other hardware found on our goods are made in China.

When does my order ship and will I receive a tracking number?

We strive to pack and ship orders that are placed prior to 3:00pm EST on the same business day; all orders placed thereafter will be processed the following business day.

Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding national holidays. All confirmed orders ship via UPS within 48-72 hours depending on whether or not monogramming has been requested.

Once the item ships, you will be emailed a shipping confirmation along with a tracking number for your reference. If your item is being personalized with a monogram it may take 2-3 business days to ship.

Will I be charged for shipping and who is responsible for delivering my order?

Product Lifetime Journey Guarantee

For the lifetime of your Ghurka product, we will cover the repair or replacement (at our discretion) of any manufacturing defect in materials and workmanship. Please keep in mind that your lifetime is different from the product lifetime (though we know many Ghurka owners who have had the joy of passing on their Ghurka to the next generation).

The product lifetime ends when, through normal use (wear and tear), your Ghurka can no longer function in its intended purpose.

The Ghurka guarantee does not cover the following:

• Thread and worn stitching from opening and closing your wallet a thousand times
• Modified products
• Misuse, such as:
  • A rivet popping off from a bag being shoved into spaces too small (our CEO speaks from experience…)
  • Washing your bag in the washing machine. Just don't do it!
  • Leaving your leather bag out somewhere where your pup mistakes it for a new toy.
  • Accidents. They happen, like a bag slipping out of the trunk on the freeway and being run-over by several semis (oh, it has happened).

How do I go about sending my bag in for repair?

Please fill out the repair form here. Be sure to submit photos of your item so we can assess your repair accordingly. From there, our repair team will reach out to you within three to five business days via email.

Our team of highly skilled craftsmen and craftswomen have repaired bags for the past 40 years. We are always willing to assess a damaged, worn, misused, etc. bag that might not be covered under warranty but we can still fix for a fee. Once we have completed the assessment we will let you know the costs prior to repairing the item.

How should I store my Ghurka?

To keep your item in good condition when not being used, be sure to store it in the dust bag that is provided to you when you receive your item. This will help prevent dust, dirt, and damage occurring to your bag. It will also assist in preserving the luster of your bag. Be sure to keep your product out of direct sunlight, as this can fade and dry out the leather. Your bag should also be stored at room temperature to avoid humidity damage.

How often should I treat my Ghurka?

It is best practice to use Ghurka’s leather conditioner every eight to 12 weeks. Ghurka offers a leather care formula that can be purchased by clicking here.

How to clean your Ghurka:

Caring for your leather good:

• Ghurka Leather Care can be used as a cleaner and a conditioner. Apply a small amount onto a clean, dry cloth. We recommend using a soft microfiber cloth in this process.
• Be sure to evenly coat a complete section or panel of the product to achieve a uniform result.
• When dry, gently buff the leather with a clean, dry, microfiber cloth.
• For surface dirt, simply wipe clean with a damp microfiber cloth.
• Please note that Ghurka Leather Care does not remove stains.

Caring for your twill fabric good:

• Ghurka twill can typically be cleaned with a mild solution of color free laundry detergent and warm water. It is best practice to mix one teaspoon of detergent to each pint of water.
• Use a white cloth that is damp with the solution and blot both the affected and surrounding area.
• Refrain from scrubbing or brushing a singular spot because it can lead to irregular discoloring.
• Clean a complete section of the product to achieve uniform appearance. Stains should be treated immediately.
• We recommend testing your process on a small section at the bottom or less noticeable area before treating the entire Ghurka good.
• When brass tarnishes it can create a desirable patina. If you’d like to clean it so it appears new, it can be cleaned with Brasso or vinegar/water solution or by using a gentle, soapy water mix.

**Ghurka products should not be dry cleaned or machine washed.

What forms of payment do you accept?

For your convenience, Ghurka accepts a wide variety of payment methods to make your shopping experience as seamless as possible. This includes all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, JCB, Diners Club), and personalized, alternate payment processors Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal and Amazon Pay. For those seeking longer term payment options, Ghurka is a proud partner with Affirm (learn more here). For international sales, any applicable tax and/or duties required by your country of origin will be collected and submitted on your behalf at the point of sale.

Can I use two credit cards to pay for my purchase?

Unfortunately, we do not accept multiple credit cards at checkout. However, you can apply a Ghurka gift card to your payment in addition to your credit card.

What is Affirm?

Affirm is a third-party company that allows you to pay for most items on Ghurka.com through flexible financing over time. The short application process requires providing some personal information—either through the pre-qualify link or at checkout. In most instances, you will receive an immediate decision on your eligibility to purchase with payments over 3, 6, 12, 18 or 24 months. Please note that when choosing to use Affirm, for any payment questions or concerns, you must contact Affirm directly.

Can I return a monogrammed product?

Once an item is personalized it is no longer eligible to be returned or exchanged.

How do I know which pieces can be monogrammed?

When clicking on any item on our website, you will see a section that says “customize”. If an item can be monogrammed, there will be an option you can click that says, “Add Monogram”. If you would like more information on placement and sizing our customer service team can help provide more information
