Basic care

Before using

If you use the bag on a daily basis, spray it with waterproof spray before using it. Applying a waterproof spray will prevent dirt from sticking. Please be aware that using a waterproofing spray that does not suit the material or purpose will lead to deterioration of the material.

After using

Dust and dirt will accumulate on the bag after just one day of use. On the same day, lightly brush the surface with a leather brush or gently wipe it dry with a soft, dry cloth. In particular, brushed materials such as suede and nubuck tend to attract dust, so gently brush them off with a brush made for brushed leather.

If you get wet in the rain ...

The higher quality leather is, the more susceptible it is to moisture and rain. If it gets wet, it is more likely to lose its shape and lose its color. If you get wet in the rain, pat the moisture thoroughly with a dry cloth or towel, fill your bag with highly absorbent material such as kitchen paper, newspaper, or desiccant, and dry thoroughly in the shade. . Once the color changes like a stain, it is difficult to restore it to its original state, so it is important to clean it as soon as it gets wet to prevent stains.

Care and precautions for each material

smooth leather

This is a regular leather bag. Carefully clean the product as follows once every two weeks or before and after long-term storage. First, carefully remove the dust with a brush. Apply the cleaner to a soft cloth, let it absorb into the cloth, and then pat it to remove dirt and old oil. Once the dirt is removed, apply the cream to a soft cloth and apply the cream. Be sure to let the cream blend into the cloth thoroughly before applying it, making sure that it does not come into direct contact with the leather. Buff with a brush, then wipe off excess cream with a soft cloth to bring out the shine.

suede nubuck

Suede nubuck is a material with raised leather on both sides. Suede nubuck is extremely sensitive to rain, and once it gets stained, it is almost impossible to remove it. Please avoid using it on rainy days as much as possible. Carefully clean the product as follows once every two weeks or before and after long-term storage. First, use a brush made specifically for brushed leather, such as a natural raw rubber brush, to remove dust and dirt from the bristles. For stains that are difficult to remove, use an eraser designed for leather care.

If the area is heavily soiled, use a special liquid or mousse type cleaner. If the color fades or fades, use a complementary color spray or liquid. Once it's dry, brush it to smooth out the nap.

Nume leather

Tanned leather is a natural leather material that is made from cowhide that has been tanned using natural plant materials and has not been finished with artificial dyes or paints. Although it is prone to discoloration, it is a material that enjoys the texture that changes to a candy color over time. When you first buy it, it is whitish and dirt will be noticeable. If you are exposed to the sun immediately, you will get tanned and discolored, but the oil in the leather itself rises to the surface and forms a protective film, making it difficult for dirt to stick and easy to remove. Basically, take care of it by wiping it dry every day, and if it starts to get flaky, apply a special cream. For partial stains, use an eraser designed for leather care.

How to store branded bags

A well-ventilated and breathable environment

Use breathable bags to prevent moisture and mold from forming. Avoid plastic bags, as they have poor breathability and can trap moisture. A humid environment can cause metal fittings and zippers to rust, making it difficult to open and close the bag.

avoid direct sunlight

Exposure to direct sunlight will cause the color of the bag to fade easily. Light-colored materials are particularly sensitive to sunlight and are prone to discoloration over time. Excessive drying may cause cracks.

Prevent shape loss

Fill the bag with stuffing to keep it in shape. If you want to store it for a long time, we recommend laying it flat with the stuffing inside. Gravity is applied evenly, making wrinkles and sagging less likely.
