Leather Care

How do I care for my purchase?

Being a natural material, leather needs a little TLC to maintain its lustre. Treat it right and it will last you for years to come.

PREVENTION

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to heat and direct sunlight (excessive heat may cause leather to change colour, crack or dry out).
  • Keep out of heavy rain. While a light drizzle will be fine, sustained exposure to water can damage the leather and cause splotches that may not fade evenly.
  • Due to its porous nature, leather will never be waterproof (though you can increase water resistance by using Collonil’s Organic Protect & Care spray).
  • If the leather gets wet, simply pat dry with a paper towel (don’t rub), pack the item loosely with paper and let it air dry away from artificial heat and direct sunlight.
  • Some colour transfer may occur if light coloured leather comes into contact with dark clothing (and vice versa).

TREATMENT

  • Use a leather conditioner every 4-6 months to keep the leather supple and avoid dryness, fading or cracking. Test your conditioner on a small, inconspicuous area first as the reaction of leather to treatments can vary.
  • Apply a small amount of conditioner to a soft, lint free cloth (never directly to the leather).
  • Use a circular motion to rub the conditioner evenly over an entire section of the leather and follow with a brisk buffing of the leather surface with a soft, dry cloth.
  • Air dry for a few hours before using the bag.
  • Most conditioners will impart a rich lustre and deeper colour to the item (another reason to spot test).

STORAGE

  • We recommend storing your leather article inside a dust bag and in a cool, dry place when not in use. Do not store leather in plastic.
