Leather Care Guide
First confirm the actual material and the maker’s care instructions for your piece. Test any product in an inconspicuous area and use a professional cleaner for serious stains.
Finished genuine leather
Remove loose dust with a soft dry cloth. Keep away from prolonged direct heat and soaking. Use only a conditioner suited to the confirmed leather finish, sparingly and after a patch test. Avoid household detergents and heavy oils.
Suede and nubuck
Use a dedicated suede brush gently in the direction of the nap. Keep dry; avoid applying smooth-leather conditioner. For water marks or stubborn stains, consult a specialist before treating the garment.
Faux leather
Wipe with a slightly damp soft cloth and dry promptly. Avoid solvents, harsh abrasion and leather conditioners unless the specific material’s maker recommends them. Coated surfaces can peel if exposed to heat or unsuitable chemicals.
Storage
Hang on a broad hanger in a cool, dry, ventilated place. Leave room around the jacket to preserve its shape; avoid sealed plastic bags and long periods of direct sunlight. Let a damp item air dry naturally before storage.
