Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner with a soft cloth, following product instructions. Ensure the conditioner is suitable for smooth leather.

Scuff marks on leather

For minor scuffs, try gently buffing the area with a soft, dry cloth. For more persistent marks, a specialized leather cleaner or repair kit might be necessary. Test any product on an inconspicuous area first.

Zipper is stiff

Gently rub a graphite pencil tip along the zipper teeth. You can also use a small amount of wax (like beeswax or candle wax) or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Material transfer from other items

Be mindful of the color of items placed inside the unlined bag, especially darker clothing or denim, as color transfer can occur. Use a pouch for items prone to color transfer.
