After use
Empty the piece, brush away dust and allow it to air before returning it to storage.
Leather care, made simple
Let it age beautifully
Full-grain leather changes with use. A few gentle habits will protect its natural character while allowing a rich, personal patina to form.
The essentials
Less product, more patience
Leather is a natural material. Small variations, creases and gradual darkening are part of its story—not flaws to polish away.
- Keep the surface dry and wipe away moisture promptly.
- Remove dust with a clean, soft and colourfast cloth.
- Condition sparingly only when the leather begins to feel dry.
- Let every piece dry naturally, away from direct heat.
A quiet routine
Three moments of care
Frequency depends on climate and use. Observe the leather rather than following a rigid schedule.
When marked
Blot liquids immediately with a dry cloth. Do not rub—the motion can push moisture deeper into the grain.
When dry
Apply a small amount of suitable leather conditioner after a discreet patch test, then buff gently.
Gentle cleaning
A careful step-by-step
Before using any product, check its instructions and test it on a hidden area. Different finishes can react differently.
-
01
Prepare the piece
Empty pockets and remove loose dust with a soft, dry cloth.
-
02
Spot clean
Use a barely damp cloth and light pressure. Work on the affected area without saturating the leather.
-
03
Air dry
Leave the piece open at room temperature. Never use a radiator, hair dryer or strong direct sunlight.
-
04
Condition only if needed
Once fully dry, apply a minimal amount of compatible conditioner and buff with a separate clean cloth.
When life happens
Act gently and early
Rain and water
Blot the surface, reshape the piece and let it dry naturally. Temporary darkening often softens as the leather dries.
Oil or cosmetics
Do not add water or household cleaner. Blot without rubbing and ask a leather-care specialist about persistent marks.
Long-term storage
Fill the piece loosely with acid-free tissue, place it in a breathable dust bag and store it in a cool, dry place.
Good to know
Care questions
There is no universal calendar. Condition only when clean leather
feels noticeably dry, and always begin with a patch test and a very
small amount.
Light surface marks are natural on full-grain leather and often blend
into its patina. Gently buffing with a clean, soft cloth may soften
their appearance.
Only use a product specifically suitable for the leather finish, and
test it in a hidden area first. Any treatment can change colour or
sheen.
