How Do I Care for Leather?
Once you have your leather briefcase, wallet, or shaving kit, how do you care for it? Leather is the preserved skin of an animal that is soft and pliable. It needs occasional oiling to keep it alive and to protect it from dry rotting.
- Basic Cleaning - The interior cloth liner is usually removable from the case, and you can clean this by hand with a mild detergent solution. The leather exterior is subject to damage from oxidation, sunlight, heat, and abrasions. If it gets dirty, you can wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
- Minor Abrasions - If you get small scuff marks, just rub your finger over the surface and the oils in the leather will rub out over the affected area.
- Lubrication - It is a good idea to periodically do a deep clean with a leather soap and feed it with oil made for leather products. You don't need to do this that often, but if you notice the leather is getting stiff, that is when you know it needs to be fed. Stiff leather will crack more easily.
