Shipping & delivery
How fast will I get my bag?
Your order ships within 1 business day. After that:
- Netherlands: 1–2 business days
- Europe: 2–5 business days
- Worldwide: 3–7 business days
Ordered a pre-order item? The delivery time starts once your pre-order ships. You’ll find the expected date on the product page.
How much is shipping? Is it ever free?
Yes! Shipping is free from €150 in the Netherlands and most EU countries. Below that, or outside the EU, the shipping cost is calculated at checkout before you pay. No surprises.
Do you ship worldwide?
We do! Delivery time and shipping costs depend on your location and are shown at checkout. Can’t select your country? Email us at customerservice@francisbyfb.com and we’ll check what we can do.
Will I have to pay import taxes or duties?
Inside the EU: no extra costs, ever.
Outside the EU: your local customs may charge import taxes or duties. These aren’t included at checkout and are paid by the buyer.
My tracking says “delivered” but I don’t have my bag.
So annoying, we know. Quick checklist first:
- Ask neighbours or people you live with
- Check your mailbox and any safe spots around your home
- Check your email/tracking: it may be at a pick-up point
Still nothing? Email us at customerservice@francisbyfb.com with your order number and tracking details, and we’ll start an investigation with the carrier right away.
Payment
Which payment methods do you accept?
100% secure payment with
You’ll see the options available in your country at checkout.
Can I pay later or in instalments?
Yes! With Klarna you can pay later or split your payment, depending on your country. Just pick Klarna at checkout.
I’m from Norway or Sweden and my payment won’t go through.
Nothing’s wrong with your card or your order! Nordic banks sometimes block payments in euros to international webshops as a security measure.
The easy fix: pay with Klarna. It’s fully supported by Scandinavian banks, so your payment won’t be blocked.

Returns & exchanges
Can I return my bag?
Yes, if you’re in the EU. You have 30 days after delivery to return your item, as long as it’s unused and in its original condition.
Return shipping is paid by you, unless your item is defective or we sent the wrong one. Orders from outside the EU can’t be returned.
How do I start a return?
Easy: register it in our returns portal, print your label and drop off your parcel.
Can I exchange my bag for another colour or model?
We don’t do direct exchanges. Just return your bag (EU only) and place a new order for the one you want.
💡 Tip: order your new bag first, so your favourite colour doesn’t sell out in the meantime.
Product & care
How big are the bags? Will my laptop fit?
- It girl bag: 40 x 32 x 16 cm, fits a 16" MacBook
- Mini it girl bag: 25 x 20 x 12 cm, for your daily essentials
- Mini muse bag: 30 x 19 x 9 cm
Exact measurements for every model are on the product page.
What are the bags made of?
100% genuine, untreated cowhide leather, handmade in Italy in small batches. That’s why every bag has its own natural character, and why it gets better with time.
My bag smells like leather. Is that normal?
Totally normal. Untreated, genuine leather has a natural scent. It fades within a few days to weeks. Leave your bag open in a well-ventilated room to speed things up.
How do I take care of my bag?
- Use a leather protect spray before first use and every 3–6 months
- Clean with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap. Never soak it
- Light colours: avoid contact with dark fabrics like denim (colour transfer)
Can I order it as a gift?
Of course! Add our Signature Francis gift box to your order and it arrives ready to give.
Warranty & issues
Do the bags come with a warranty?
Yes! Our warranty covers manufacturing defects.
My bag is stained. Is that covered by the warranty?
Stains count as wear and tear, so they’re not covered. We recommend a professional leather cleaner. Prevent it next time with our protect spray.
Not sure if your issue qualifies? Just email us at customerservice@francisbyfb.com.
Can I choose a different bag as warranty replacement?
We replace it with the same item where possible. Is it no longer available? Then you can pick a different colour.
My bag arrived damaged. What now?
So sorry! Email us within 7 days of delivery at customerservice@francisbyfb.com with your order number and a photo or video of the damage. We’ll sort it out asap.
