1. In daily life, be sure to note that if your leather bag is made of genuine leather, it is best not to get it wet. If it accidentally gets wet, you should immediately use a clean towel or paper towel to absorb the moisture on the bag. Always make sure the surface of the bag is dry, as this can prevent the bag from getting wrinkled and exploding.


2. The cabinet where leather products are stored must be well ventilated. For example, cabinets with shutter doors are better, and it is best not to put too many items in the cabinet.

3. The natural oils in the leather will gradually decrease over time or with excessive use, so even high-end leather goods require regular maintenance.

4. Daily simple care will make the leather bag more durable. If your leather bag gets wet, you should first absorb the moisture with a dry cloth and then place it in a cool place to let the bag dry naturally. Never leave it in the sun, near an air conditioner, or use a hair dryer to dry it, otherwise it may burst. Regularly apply leather stain remover to leather surfaces, applying to a dry cloth first. Avoid washing with water or contact with chemical solvents. When storing your leather bag, you can put a little moisture-proof sheet in it.

5. When cleaning and wiping genuine leather bags, it is forbidden to use rough cloth to wipe the bag. It is recommended to choose cotton pads or paper towels that women usually use to remove makeup and apply toner to clean and wipe to reduce damage to the leather surface of the bag.

6. Do not place genuine leather bags in high temperature places or expose them to the sun. If a genuine leather bag is placed in a high temperature place for a long time or is exposed to the sun, it will damage the leather surface of the bag, which can easily cause the bag to lose color and burst.

7. Genuine leather bags with matte surfaces should be kept clean at all times. Do not allow dirt to accumulate on the leather surface of the bag. Once dirt is stained, clean it in time. Otherwise, the dirt will stay on the leather surface for a long time and will corrode the leather surface of the bag. Difficult to remove.

8. For genuine leather bags that you want to collect after the season, you need to clean the leather surface of the bag before storing it, and put some clean shredded paper or cotton shirts and other fillings inside the bag to maintain the shape of the bag. Then put the genuine leather bag into a soft cotton bag and store it in a cool, dry place.
