Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our goods and services
How should I care for my raw denim?
We recommend wearing your denim for at least six months before the first wash to allow for natural fading. When necessary, hand wash cold with a specialized denim detergent and hang to dry.
Do you offer custom leather embossing?
Yes, we offer complimentary monogramming on select leather goods. Please specify your desired initials in the order notes at checkout.
Are your products made in-house?
Many of our leather goods and apparel items are handcrafted in our Des Moines workshop. For third-party brands, we exclusively curate labels that prioritize ethical manufacturing.
Can I visit your physical storefront?
Absolutely. Our flagship store and workshop are located in Des Moines, Iowa. Check our footer for current seasonal hours.
Do you offer repairs on leather goods?
We stand by our craftsmanship. We offer repair services for Fontenelle Supply Co. leather products to ensure they last a lifetime.
What is 'selvedge' denim?
Selvedge denim is woven on traditional shuttle looms, resulting in a self-binding edge that prevents unraveling and signifies a higher quality, more durable fabric.
