- Avoid contact with water, perfume, oils, creams, alcohol or any chemical substances.
- Immediately remove stains as soon as you notice them with a gentle cloth.
- Tuck the shoulder strap inside of the bag to avoid marks on the leather.
- After every usage, store your bags in an upright position in their dust bag, and store them in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. This will protect it and will keep the leather from fading.
