Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and beauty of your genuine leather bag, proper care is essential:
- Avoid Excessive Moisture: While leather can withstand light rain, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or water should be avoided. If it gets wet, gently wipe with a dry, clean cloth and allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt. For deeper cleaning and conditioning, Ashwood recommends using COLLONIL cleaning and care products. COLLONIL products are specifically formulated for leather care, helping to nourish the leather and protect it from wear.
- Storage: When not in use, store your bag in a dust bag (if provided) or a breathable pillowcase in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.
- Conditioning: Apply a high-quality leather conditioner, such as those from COLLONIL, every few months or as needed to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. Always test any new product on an inconspicuous area first.
