Durable, luxe, and versatile, leather works hard for its spot in your wardrobe. While we do recommend heading to a specialist for any cleaning of your leather and suede pieces, they should not need cleaning regularly.
Do:
- Take your items to a specialist leather dry cleaner
- Use a leather or suede protectant
- Use a leather balm or conditioner to keep the leather looking fresh
- Test any products on an inconspicuous spot first
- Spot clean leather with a damp cloth
- Use a suede brush to remove any dust or dirt
- Dry at room temperature if your piece gets wet
- Store leather pieces hung or rolled in a cool, dry spot.
Don't:
- Use anything abrasive on your leather or suede, or rub it when wet
- Use heat on your leather
- Store your leather garments in plastic
- Keep your pieces in direct sunlight – this can cause them to fade.
It never hurts to be gentle with your leather pieces, especially our soft leather garments, which can scratch. Try to keep sharp or abrasive surfaces away from your garments and avoid contact with water wherever possible. Choose your leather conditioners carefully – be mindful to choose a neutral option for dyed leather, so that the colour remains as new. The care needs of leather and suede can differ from style to style, so be sure to check the garment tag first.
