FAQ’s
Can leather bags get wet?
Leather bags generally have water resistance, but are not fully waterproof. Real leather has some natural water resistance, but excessive exposure to moisture can still cause damage.
Wherever possible, avoid damp or moisture on your leather goods. We know this is not always possible. So if your bag does get wet, here's what to do.
If you spill something on it, blot away the moisture with a clean dry cloth.
Caught in a rainstorm? Let your leather good completely air dry. Do not use a heat source to speed up the drying as this can damage the leather. Stuff the item with newspaper to help the bag keep its shape. This also helps to absorb moisture from the inside.
Taking proper care and precautions will help maintain the quality and longevity of your leather bag.

How do I clean my leather bag?
Treating a real leather bag with care can extend its life by years.
We recommend the following to care for your leather bag:
Always wash your hands before caring for leather. Oil from your hands can easily transfer to leather hide.
Once a week, we recommend getting a soft, dry (or slightly damp) cloth. Then briskly sweep the leather. Don't forget the inside too! Use a cloth to wipe down the lining and remove any dirt or residue.
Use a good leather cream or conditioner once or twice per year. This will prevent your leather item becoming dry or cracked. If you live in a dryer climate, you may need to do this more often.
Simply apply the cream to the entire item with a cloth and rub off any excess. We recommend using our all natural leather cream found in our store for our bags.
Be sure to take the time to care properly for your leather. If you do, your item can have a good, long life.
