Prevention Helps!
Before you use your new favorite handmade leather bag, treat it to the protection of a waterproofing spray or leather cream. This simple step can make all the difference in keeping your bag beautiful for years to come.
Best Protection for Full-Grain Leather
Leather cream is more suitable for full-grain leather bags than waterproofing spray. This protective treatment guards against rain and moisture, helping prevent unsightly water stains and marks that can damage the natural beauty of your leather.
How Often Should You Protect Your Leather Bag?
For optimal protection, apply leather cream approximately every 6 weeks. This regular care routine ensures your handmade bag stays well-protected against the elements and maintains its natural, beautiful appearance.
Why Full-Grain Leather Needs Special Care
Full-grain leather is the highest quality leather, preserving the natural grain and character of the hide. Because it's natural and breathable, it needs proper protection to resist moisture while maintaining its unique patina that develops over time.
Quick Care Tips for Your Leather Bag
- Apply leather cream before first use
- Reapply protective treatment every 6 weeks
- Use products specifically designed for full-grain leather
- Test any product on a small, hidden area first
- Allow the leather to absorb the cream fully before use
With proper care and protection, your PHILINI handmade leather bag will develop a beautiful patina and remain your trusted companion for many years.
