The Pre-Embroidered Accessories Pouch
Description
A small bag with a strong point of view.
This Accessories Pouch has been embroidered with "NYC" by our studio partner — three letters that say everything about where you're from, where you're going, or who you're buying for. It's for the New Yorker who carries her whole life in a tote. The traveler who packs the city with her. The friend who appreciates a considered detail on something she'll actually use every day.
Thoughtfully sized for daily essentials — makeup, cards, keys, a charger — the Accessories Pouch zips closed and fits inside any bag in the GALE STUDIO lineup. Pairs beautifully with the Essential Tote or Commuter Tote as a coordinated set, or stands on its own as a go-anywhere grab-and-go.

Care
Cleaning & Care for Gale Studio Bags
Gale Studio bags are built to be tough, long‑lasting, and beautiful. Made from natural heavyweight canvas, they’re ready for farmers’ markets, beach days, and everyday adventures. With regular use come little spills and spots — here’s how to keep your tote looking its best.
Spot Cleaning Recommended
While some customers have successfully machine‑washed their Gale Studio bag, we recommend spot cleaning to preserve its structure and finish.
Step‑by‑Step Care
- Remove surface dirt: Use a dry, soft‑bristled brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently sweep away loose dirt or sand from the canvas.
- Prepare a cleaning solution: In a bowl, mix warm water with a mild detergent such as gentle body soap, dishwashing liquid, or a small amount of laundry detergent. Stir until bubbles form.
- Scrub the canvas: Dip your brush into the soapy mixture and scrub the soiled areas using small circular motions. It’s okay to saturate the canvas, but try to keep leather handles, trims, and metal hardware as dry as possible. If they do get damp, wipe them immediately — Gale Studio bags use water‑resistant (not waterproof) leather and hardware that handle minimal moisture.
- Rinse carefully: Run a gentle stream of water over the cleaned spot to rinse away soap. A small flow helps avoid soaking the entire bag.
- Dry thoroughly: Blot the damp area with a clean cloth or paper towel, then let the bag air dry completely. Avoid using a dryer, as high heat can damage leather straps, zippers, and adhesives.
With proper care, your Gale Studio bag will stay fresh and functional for years to come — ready for every adventure on your calendar.
