FAQ

Q: How can I order a bag? 

A: I restock my website periodically in two different ways: Pre-Order and Collection Drop 

Pre-Orders open for certain styles that will be made to order after purchased. Lead times are typically 8-9 weeks for completion. 

Collection Drops are an assortment of creations including select best sellers and one of a kind works. Drops are done in small batches. Each bag pictured is the exact one you can order. These pieces are already made and ready to ship when purchased. 

The best way to stay up to date on restock announcements is by following @calyse.co on Instagram.

Q: Do you have a store?

A: I have a showroom based out of my home studio that I am happy to invite customers in to see my work in person, pick up orders, or shop my in stock inventory. My hours are by appointment, give me a call or email to set up a visit!

 

Q: If I am suppling a saddle for my bag, is there a discount?

A: I am unable to give discounts for Repurposed Saddle Bag projects, and I'd love to explain why! All of my pricing for repurposed saddle bags (supplied or not) are made up of only my labor and shop supplies. You are not paying anything towards any leather cost. You also receive the benefit of adding any personalization free of charge! This is an incredibly personal service in terms of having a handbag made and I am here to dedicate extended amounts of time to ensure you receive the very best product and service. 

 

Q: I don't have a saddle to send in, but I want a saddle bag! How do I get one?

A: Check out the Offerings page for ready-made creations!

 

Q: Can I have just my halter, bridle or nameplate incorporate into a bag style?

A: Absolutely! There are quite a few styles where this can be applied. Send me an email to get started. 

 

Q: I have old saddles, do you need any?

A: I am very happy and grateful to take in any saddle / tack donations that I can pick up within driving distance of my studio. So many tack items are discarded to the landfill everyday. This issue is part of what sparked my interest in repurposing the beautiful tack that may not be safe to use in the sport anymore.
