How to take care of your leather products

1. Leather is a skin; keep it fed and moist. Allow it to breathe.
2. Spray items with a protector.
3. Never store leather in plastic bags or non-porous containers.
4. Use leather conditioner occasionally to prevent it from drying out or cracking.
5. Avoid any products containing silicone or wax.
6. Hang leather jackets on wide or padded hangers.
7. Use cedar shoetrees in leather shoes. This hold the shape and allows leather to dry out, so they do not shrivel.
8. Stuff leather bags with tissue to maintain their shape.
