LEATHER CARE
Luxury Deserves Care
Your Hide and Luxe piece is not just an accessory, it is a statement, a companion, and an heirloom in the making. With the right care, our handcrafted leather will age gracefully, developing a patina that is uniquely yours.
Everyday Care
Handle with Clean Hands: Leather is a natural material that absorbs oils and creams. Always handle your piece with clean, dry hands.
Avoid Overstuffing: For wallets, handbags, and belts, avoid stretching or overfilling. This preserves shape and structure.
Rotate Use: Like luxury shoes and jackets, alternating use gives leather time to breathe and rest.
Storage
Store leather items in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or humidity. Use the dust bag or box provided with your purchase for safekeeping.
Keep handbags and jackets stuffed with soft tissue or fabric to maintain shape. Avoid plastic covers, as leather needs to breathe.
Cleaning & Conditioning
Wipe your leather gently with a soft, dry cloth after use to remove dust or surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and allow it to air dry naturally—never use heat.
Apply a quality leather conditioner every 3–6 months to retain suppleness and prevent cracking. Avoid harsh chemicals, soaps, or alcohol-based cleaners.
Water & Weather
Leather is naturally resilient but not waterproof. If it gets wet, pat dry immediately with a soft cloth. Let it dry at room temperature—never under the sun or with a dryer.
For protection, you may use a specialist leather protector spray, tested first on a small area.
Professional Aftercare
For repair, deep cleaning, or restoration, we recommend contacting our Hide and Luxe Concierge Team. Our experts can guide you to trusted leather care professionals or provide in-house support for certain services.
Final Note
Leather, like luxury itself, becomes more beautiful with time. With every crease, every mark, and every softening of texture, your Hide and Luxe piece tells your story. Care for it well, and it will remain a timeless companion.
