Leather Care and Usage Guide

Thank you for choosing our leather products. Each item in our store is crafted from premium materials, including fine lambskin, sheepskin, vegetable-tanned leather, and full-grain cowhide. Leather is naturally durable and, over time, it will develop even more character and beauty. However, proper care and maintenance are essential to ensure your product’s longevity and appearance. Below are some tips for daily care and usage:

1. Cleaning Your Leather

  • Regular Cleaning: Use a soft cloth or leather-specific cleaner to gently wipe the surface of the leather to prevent dirt and dust buildup.
  • Avoid Water and Alcohol: Water and cleaning products containing alcohol can damage the leather’s surface, so avoid using them.
  • Cleaning Cloth Provided: To assist with regular maintenance, we provide a cleaning cloth with every leather purchase to help you keep your leather items clean easily.

2. Conditioning the Leather

  • Prevent Drying and Cracking: Since leather is a natural material, it can lose moisture over time and develop cracks. Regularly applying leather care oil or conditioner (such as lanolin or plant-based oils) helps maintain the leather’s softness, shine, and durability.

3. Avoid Direct Sunlight

  • Keep Away from Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause leather to fade and crack. It’s best to store your leather goods in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight.

4. Water Protection

  • Keep Leather Dry: Although some leather items come pre-treated for water resistance, long-term exposure to water can still damage leather. Use water-repellent sprays or coatings for additional protection, especially during rainy seasons.

5. Durability and Toughness of Leather

  • Long-lasting: High-quality leather, particularly full-grain cowhide or sheepskin, can last for many years with proper care. Over time, leather will become more beautiful, developing a unique sheen and texture.
  • Toughness: Our premium leathers offer excellent resistance to wear and tear. With fine craftsmanship, edges are neat and seams are sturdy, ensuring the longevity of your leather goods.

6. Natural Aging of Leather

  • Showcasing Character: High-quality leather will develop unique “marks of use” over time. These marks are considered the leather's “personality,” adding more depth and story to your product. For example, leather may develop a beautiful patina (color change) as it ages, which is one of the reasons people love leather goods.

7. Leather’s Natural Aroma

  • Leather Scent: Due to its natural composition, leather often carries a distinctive scent. Some people may find this aroma strong, but it is generally harmless. If the scent is too strong, you can place the leather item in a well-ventilated area to let it air out or use a specialized odor neutralizer.

Each of our leather products is carefully selected and crafted to provide you with the ultimate handcrafted experience. With regular cleaning, conditioning, and proper storage, your leather goods will maintain their beauty and character, becoming more unique and charming as time goes by. We hope these simple care tips will help you preserve your leather items, allowing them to accompany you through the years and become treasured pieces.
