How should I clean the leather?

Troubleshooting
Bag closure is stiff or difficult to open/close.
Ensure the flap is properly aligned. Gently work the push-lock mechanism back and forth. If stiffness persists, a very small amount of silicone-based lubricant applied *only* to the male part of the lock mechanism might help, but test in an inconspicuous area first and use sparingly.
Leather shows minor scuffs or marks.
For light scuffs, try gently buffing the area with a soft, dry cloth. For more noticeable marks, use a specialized nappa leather conditioner or cleaner, following product instructions and testing on a hidden spot first.
Faint discoloration on the leather.
This could be due to contact with dyes from clothing or environmental factors. Clean with a recommended nappa leather cleaner. Avoid contact with dark, wet, or loosely dyed fabrics to prevent color transfer.
Webbed strap is dirty.
Gently wipe the webbed strap with a cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue, then allow the strap to air dry completely.
