Leather Care Tips

Smooth Leather- Use a soft, water dampened sponge or cloth to remove surface dirt or stains.

Suede or “Nubuck” Leather- Brush regularly to keep dust and dirt from settling in the nap and to maintain its velvety look. Use a brush or block designed for suede and nubuck available at your leather retailer. Never use a wire bristle brush

If the garment gets wet, remove all items from pockets, hang on a sturdy, padded hanger, and let air dry naturally away from heat. When dry, brush suede and nubuck items to lift the nap

Professional leather cleaning is recommended when :

· Ground-in-dirt appears around collar, cuffs or pocket areas

· Stains occur
Color looks faded

If staining occurs, it is recommended that you take your garment to a leather care professional care as soon as possible. Although there are numerous care products available commercially, most will only be

effective in removing minor marks. Ink and protein stains such as blood, oil, egg and milk are difficult to remove from leather, and require professional care .
