General Everyday Care for your leather accessory.Updated a year ago
We design the bags we dream of from the most beautiful natural materials we can source. Leather care is the key to maintaining the beautiful look and feel of your DYLAN KAIN bags, wallets, and small leather goods.
Crafted from high-quality, Italian-made leathers including supple calfskin, pebble, and vegetable-tanned leathers, use the below care guide to ensure you have an item to wear (and love) for years to come.
Looking after your leather goods starts with day-to-day care. By following just a few simple rules, you can avoid unnecessary wear and tear and extend the life of your accessories for years.
- Leather is skin, and it can stretch. Avoid overfilling your handbag, purse, or wallet to maintain its original silhouette
- Take extra care with the leather items you use often. Take the time each week to wipe away dust and spots with a soft cloth or brush
- Scratches can detract from a flawlessly crafted piece. Take care to avoid contact with heavily embellished clothes, sharp surfaces, or chunky jewellery when you are out and about.
- Wet leather requires extra care, so if rain is forecast, remember to take an umbrella. Should your leather come in contact with water wipe it down immediately to avoid any marking or expansion
- Always store in a cool, dry place.
- To be safe it is best to avoid perfumes and cosmetics too.
- Sunlight and Heat can damage the leather and edge paint on your item, please take care not to leave it in direct sunlight as it can cause the edge paint to become soft and can wear off.
- If your accessory is stored in a humid climate, it may develop mold growth. If this occurs, clean with a damp cloth, and rub over with a dilute alcohol solution (diluted cheap vodka works best, but be sure to not touch the hardware with the alcohol solution).
