Leather Care

Leather ages gracefully and can last a lifetime with proper care right from the start.

* NUMBER ONE! Rub Mink oil (available everywhere in shoe care department) into garment ONCE if not TWICE a year. This keeps the leather from drying out and cracking (just like your skin, if it is dry, it cracks and splits)the cow is no longer there to produce the oils.
* Always hang leather garments on wide or padded hangers to maintain their shape.
* Use shoetrees in footwear and stuff empty handbags with tissue to help retain their shape.
* Never store leather goods in plastic or other non-breathable covers. This will cause leather to become dry.
* Allow wet or damp leather to air-dry naturally away from any heat source.
* Leather can be treated with a conditioner (mink oil) to restore flexibility while suede can be brushed with a terry towel to restore its look.
* In winter, promptly remove salt deposits from garments and footwear by sponging with clear water, then follow with the above treatment for wet or damp leather.
* Avoid very humid and dry environments as well as direct sunlight.
* Do not use waxes, silicone products or other leather preparations that impair a garment's ability to breathe.
* Wrinkles should hang out. If ironing is desired, set iron on rayon setting, use heavy brown wrapping paper as a pressing cloth on right side of the garment and a quick hand to prevent overheating and shine.
* Avoid spraying perfumes or hair sprays while wearing your garment and do not apply pins, adhesive badges or tape.
* Hems may be fixed with a tiny amount of rubber cement. For best results see a leather care professional.
* All products designed to be used at home should be tested on an inconspicuous part of the garment.
