PRODUCT CARE 

Maintaining a leather purse requires a combination of cleaning, conditioning, and proper storage. Here's a detailed guide to help you keep your leather purse in great condition:

1. Regular Cleaning. Wipe the purse with a soft, dry cloth regularly to remove dust and surface dirt. For a deeper clean, use a damp cloth with a mild soap or leather cleaner. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.

2. Conditioning. Leather can dry out and crack over time. Apply a leather conditioner every 2-3 months, depending on usage and climate. 

3. Storage. Store your purse in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or drying. Use a dust bag or a pillowcase to cover your purse when not in use. Avoid plastic bags, as they trap moisture and can cause mold. If storing for a long period, stuff the purse with tissue paper or bubble wrap to maintain its shape.

4. Hardware and Zippers. Keep zippers and metal hardware clean by wiping them with a dry cloth. Use a little metal polish on hardware to maintain its shine. Be careful not to get it on the leather.

5. Professional Care. If your purse suffers significant damage, such as large scratches, tears or spills consider consulting a professional leather repair shop. Some high-end brands offer restoration services for their products. If your purse is from such a brand, consider reaching out to them for specialized care.

Following these tips will help extend the life of your leather purse and keep it looking great for years to come.
