Hair On Hide Leather: 

Please note as cowhide is a natural material each bag is one of a kind and the pattern will differ on each. Just like you, and anything else with hair, it sheds eventually over time. Don't let that scare you! It’s just the natural part of using something with hair. We have contacted all of our leather companies that we buy our genuine hair on hides from, and we have heard the same answer from all of them: “It’s a natural product, it’s going to shed.” Just like knits pilling, thinning and shedding may occur to put it in perspective. The parts that get more use will show wear sooner, such as the side that rubs against your hip or side. Knitwear will cause this to happen sooner than other fabrics. The hairs also might get caught in your knits. This is simply a side effect of carrying a beautiful one of a kind genuine hair on hide bag that will last you a very long time if handled with care. It is a delicate product, please cherish these beautiful one of kind pieces.

If you need to spot clean, first wipe with a humid soft cloth in the direction of the hair. Then use a sponge lightly dampened with water or neutral soap to wipe away any dirt. For stain removal, immediately remove any excess liquids or solids with a paper towel, soft cloth or sponge. 

Please note: As it is made of a natural material, each bag varies slightly in texture and color. The leather will become more vintage looking with each use but you can touch it up at any time with leather conditioner.  

Here are some facts about the Buffalo Leather used in our bags:

• With appropriate care, buffalo leather will last a lifetime, developing, over time, a rich patina which enhances the beauty of the leather.
• To remove surface dirt and grease, wipe your Buffalo leather article with a damp cloth or use a commercial leather cleaner.  Avoid products containing solvents or silicones.
• Regular light maintenance will ensure that there is not a build up of dirt on your bag.  Always handle your bag with clean hands and wipe the bag with a dry cloth.  For a more thorough clean, apply leather cleaner to a cloth, never directly onto the leather. Apply a single coat of cleaner, using a circular motion.  Dry the bag and apply a single coat of conditioner. 
• Buffalo leather will soften through use, but you can speed up the process by the regular use of conditioner.  It is not advisable to use any other method, such as wetting or heating.
• Use a reputable leather conditioner.  Apply the conditioner to a dry cloth, never directly onto the leather.  Work a single coat of conditioner into the leather with even circular strokes.
• Keep your Buffalo leather out of direct sunlight in a dry place.  Always handle your Buffalo leather with clean hands.  Keep your Buffalo leather clean by regularly wiping with a dry cloth and apply conditioner every few months.

 Start by making sure your leather goods are clean and dry. Next, test a small amount of Smith’s Leather Balm on a hidden patch of leather to preview the results. Start with a small amount- a little goes a long way.
