Long-term care

Leather Care Guide

Simple, material-aware care helps leather hold its shape, surface character and long-term wardrobe value.

Amsel guidance

Care Begins with Restraint

Leather usually needs less intervention than people think. Avoid aggressive cleaning, excess product and unnecessary moisture. When uncertain, pause and ask before treating the garment.

Care principles

Care by Material and Finish

Daily care

After wearing

Let the garment air naturally, remove light surface dust gently and allow minor moisture to dry away from direct heat.

Storage

Give it shape and space

Use a broad hanger, avoid compression and store away from prolonged sunlight, humidity and plastic covers.

Conditioning

Use less, test first

Only use products suitable for the exact leather finish. Test discreetly and apply sparingly.

Weather

Rain and moisture

Blot without rubbing, reshape gently and allow the garment to dry slowly at room temperature.

Stains

Do not chase the mark

Aggressive rubbing can spread a stain or alter colour. Record what happened and seek specialist guidance.

Delicate finishes

Suede and brushed surfaces

Suede and brushed finishes are more sensitive to water, oil and friction. Use suitable tools carefully and consider professional review for stains.

Step by step

A Responsible Care Routine

01

Identify the material

Check the product description and care label before choosing any cleaning or conditioning method.

02

Test discreetly

Never apply a new care product across a visible area first.

03

Stop if colour transfers

Discontinue treatment and seek advice if texture, colour or finish changes.
