Leather bag care instructions
A leather bag is a timeless and durable choice that will remain beautiful with the right care. Here are some instructions for caring for a leather bag:
1. Cleaning: Wipe the bag with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. If necessary, use a mild leather soap or a damp cloth, wiping gently. Avoid excessive moisture to avoid damaging the leather.
2. Stain removal: If your bag gets stained, use a special leather cleaner. Apply a light layer to the stain and wipe gently with a soft cloth. Avoid rubbing to avoid damaging the leather surface.
3. Moisturizing: Leather needs regular moisturizing to prevent it from drying out or cracking. Apply a thin layer leather conditioner or -ointment and let it soak in. Finally, polish with a clean cloth.
4. Protection: Use a leather-friendly preservative that helps repel moisture and dirt. Apply evenly and let dry thoroughly before using the bag.
5. Drying: If your bag gets wet, pat it dry with a soft cloth and let it dry at room temperature. Do not use a tumble dryer, radiator or direct sunlight as excessive heat can dry out and damage the leather.
6. Storage: Store the bag in an airy place, protected in a soft cloth bag. Stuff the bag with tissue paper or lightweight fillings to help it retain its shape. Avoid heavy loads and direct sunlight.
With these care instructions, your leather bag will stay looking great and last for years!
