LEATHER CARE
COWHIDE BAG CARE
Made to be worn. Designed to be treasured.
Your CNDI cowhide bag is crafted to make a statement. With the right care, you can preserve its character, finish and beauty for years to come.
Everyday Care
-
Handle your bag with clean, dry hands to help prevent the transfer of oils, dirt and cosmetics.
-
Avoid overfilling your bag, as this may affect its shape over time.
-
When not in use, store your bag in its protective dust bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Keep It Dry
Cowhide is a natural material and may be affected by moisture. Protect your bag from heavy rain, spills and prolonged exposure to damp conditions. If it becomes wet, gently blot the surface with a clean, soft, dry cloth and allow it to air-dry naturally. Never use direct heat or a hairdryer.
Cleaning
For everyday marks, gently wipe the affected area with a clean, soft cloth. Avoid soaking the leather or using household cleaners, alcohol, solvents, baby wipes or unapproved leather-care products, as these may damage the finish or cause discolouration.
For stubborn stains, seek advice from a professional leather-care specialist before attempting further treatment.
Protect the Finish
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, excessive heat, perfumes, oils, cosmetics and abrasive surfaces. Take particular care with dark or heavily dyed clothing, as colour transfer may occur on lighter leather.
Storage
When storing your bag, gently fill it with acid-free tissue paper to help maintain its shape. Keep it inside its dust bag and store it away from direct sunlight, humidity and heat. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of it.
The Beauty of Natural Cowhide
Cowhide is a natural material, so subtle variations in texture, grain and appearance may occur. These characteristics are part of its individual character rather than flaws. With wear, the leather may develop changes in appearance that reflect its use over time.
A little care goes a long way. Treat your CNDI bag with care, and let it become part of your story.
