Genuine leather and suede — how to care for your handbag so it lasts for years
Posted by NOSHE
NOSHE bags are made from natural leather and suede. These are materials that live with you: they develop a patina, soften, and adapt to their owner. A few simple habits are all it takes to keep them in great condition.
Smooth leather — less is more
Wipe smooth leather every now and then with a dry, soft cloth — this is usually enough to remove dust and refresh the surface. Every few months, you can use a clear leather cream: test it in an inconspicuous place first. After cleaning, let the bag rest — do not dry it on a radiator or in direct sunlight.
Suede loves a brush
Clean suede with a special suede brush, always brushing "with the grain" and in one direction.
Stains are best dealt with when fresh: blot them with a dry tissue, do not rub.
Before your first outing, consider a suede protector — it will help in fickle weather.
Storage: the bag is not a gadget
We send every bag in a cotton storage bag — please use it. The bag protects against dust and scuffs in the wardrobe. Larger models (like Sandy Grande) should be stuffed with paper to help them retain their shape. Do not hang bags for long periods from a single strap: it will lose its shape.
What to avoid?
Prolonged soaking, direct sunlight, cosmetics and perfume applied "over the bag", and placing it on dirty surfaces with the light side down. And if something happens — write to us before you try any home remedies. Some problems can be reversed, but only before they are "fixed" yourself.
