Troubleshooting
Leather shows minor scuffs
Gently buff the area with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For deeper scuffs, use a high-quality leather conditioner specifically designed for calfskin, following product instructions.
Strap detachment is stiff
Ensure the clasp is fully aligned with the attachment point. If still stiff, check for any obstructions and gently try to maneuver the clasp. Avoid forcing it to prevent damage.
Bag loses shape when empty
Ensure the bag is stuffed with appropriate material (like tissue paper or a dust bag) when not in use to help it maintain its intended structure. Avoid overstuffing.
Discoloration from contact
Avoid prolonged contact with dark denim or other materials that may transfer color. If transfer occurs, consult a professional leather cleaner.
