How to care for your leather goods

How to clean leather goods

Cleaning your leather accessories should be done first! You can use a slightly damp cloth dipped in water with soap and gently wipe the surface of your bag. For a deeper clean, we suggest using a special cleaner that will help preserve the natural lubricating oils instead of stripping them.

Attention! In no case should you use ordinary washing powder or any other specialized household chemicals! Before applying anything to your leather item, be sure to test in a hidden area to ensure the cleaner is compatible with the leather.

How to condition leather goods

Our products are made from vegetable-tanned leather, which will develop a rich patina over time with use. Full-grain leather can be scratched during normal use. You can reduce the appearance of scratches by wiping the product with a soft, clean, damp cloth or with a leather conditioner.

Conditioner should enrich your leather item's color and give it a soft, supple texture. As it absorbs, the fibers of your leather will strengthen and repair, helping it stay good-looking for a longer time.

It's recommended to use leather cleaner and conditioner every 1–3 months to clean and moisturize leather to make it last longer.

Protect your top-grain and full-grain vegetable-tanned leather goods with our Leather Waterproof Balm , specially designed to keep leather soft, supple, and resistant to water and stains. Our high-quality balm is made in Italy with carefully selected ingredients to offer superior protection to your leather items.

Leather Waterproof Balm for vegetable-tanned leather

Attention! Please note that it’s important, before using any care product, to try it on a small area of leather, as any leather conditioner may darken leather.

DON'T USE CHEMICALS OR SADDLE CLEANER.

The main recommendation for all care products you use is that they are based on natural components, like natural oils or beeswax.

Chemical cleaners and conditioners can damage the surface of your leather, causing more harm than good. The composition of special cleaning agents should not contain acetone impurities, abrasive particles, or solvents.

DON'T EXPOSE TO HEAT OR DAMP.

Please note that the leather we use to make our goods doesn't have waterproof qualities. You should use waterproof care products if you expect that the item will get wet.

Avoid keeping your leather goods in contact with water for a long period. If you do get caught in the rain, gently wipe away any drops of water and let the leather dry naturally. Do not place your leather goods next to a radiator or attempt to dry them with a hair dryer. This will deform the item.
