Your RODTNES item does not require a lot of care and maintenance. However, natural leather will change over time - it will become softer and the surface may become worn. Contrary to artificial materials, natural leather can be treated and refreshed - just like you treat a good pair of leather shoes. We recommend that you follow a few simple care instructions in order to keep your RODTNEs bag beautiful and functioning for a long time.

• Read the product description on the product page. It may contain specific instruction regarding your bag.

• Fill your bag with tissue, cloth or paper, when it is not in use and hang it by its’ handles or lying flat, when you put it down. Leather is shaped by how it is used and stored, and if you leave your bag in a folded or wrinkled position for longer periods of time, or place it in the same folded or collapsed position every day, the folds may become permanent.

• Your bag will not be affected by a few drops of rain, but for extra protection you may spray it with water repellant spray. You should never let your bag become wet, as it may affect the shape as well as the surface of the bag and cause possible color transfer.

• If your bag becomes worn along edges or corners, you can treat the worn parts with a leather cream in a neutral or matching color or a leather repair gel, such as Seisso Leather Repair. (NB. Pay attention to possible smudging on clothes etc. from excess or unabsorbed colour.

• If you want to refresh the entire bag, we recommend that you use a leather cleaning product before applying a leather care product.
