Our full grain vegetable tanned leather is an a living and delicate material. Rainwater or the sun can leave stains on the full grain vegetable tanned leather. Follow these simple tips  for leather maintenance:

 

    • Moisturize your leather item. Use leather conditioner once a month  so it does not dry out. We use Collonil leather gel, which in addition to moisturize, clean. Dry and sunny climate is important moisturize it more frecuently.
    • Keep leather out of direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
    • If the  leather good gets wet, pat dry with paper towels and let it air dry. Do not apply  heat.
    • Leather cannot be fully waterproof but  we recommend to use a waterproofing spray to  protect and provid it with an anti-stain treatment. We use Collonil Organic Protect and Care or Collonil Carbon Pro for very rainy weather.
    • If you do not use your leather good stash it in its original dustbag and fill it with stuffing to maintain its shape
    • We recommend Collonil or Saphir products for waterproof  and moisturize treatments.
