Method/Step
Dehumidification
When the bag is used, it will inevitably be contaminated with a lot of dust and dead cells that fall from our body. High-density moisture can cause bacteria and fungi on the dead skin to multiply and cause odors. Newspaper can be wrapped with clean tracing paper to stuff the bag, which will help absorb moisture, eliminate odors, and help maintain the original shape of the bag.

Avoid prolonged exposure
Any light, including ultraviolet rays and LEDs, will cause the natural pigments in the leather to oxidize and fade, causing the bag to fade. The best way is to avoid exposing leather bags to light and sunlight for a long time. When not in use, store your bags in a cool, ventilated place, and do not expose them to the sun for a long time when you go out.

waterproof
Rain will cause the natural oils originally present on the leather to be lost, causing the leather to harden and become brittle. In addition, moisture can also form an eye-catching watermark that is difficult to remove. If the bag gets wet, you must wait until the bag is dry before putting it away. If it only gets a little bit of water, you can use a hair dryer to dry it with cold air (not hot air). If there is a watermark on the bag, it is best to ask someone to take care of it.

Anti-greasy
The inside and outside of the bag were accidentally drawn by a ball pen, or the food was stained during the meal, causing oil stains. It is difficult to remove oily stains by yourself, and someone needs to do it for you. A person will melt the oil to remove the stain. It is best to get it cleaned in the store within 4 hours after it is stained with ink. If the ink remains on the bag for more than 4 hours, it may have penetrated the fabric and is difficult to remove completely. It needs to be covered up by partial dyeing.

Food coloring
Foods such as ketchup also have pigments that will leave stains on the bags. In addition to degreasing care, if you can't remove the pigment, you have to partially fill the color, or even re-dye, to "cover the ugliness".　　


Color pollution
Some fabrics, such as patent leather, are particularly susceptible to pigments from clothing and furniture. Depending on the situation, it may be necessary to partially recolor or recolor.

Precautions
Leather is a natural fabric and contains natural oils. Hot and dry climates will cause loss of moisture and grease in the leather, which will eventually lead to loss of flexibility and fragility.
The best precaution is to add a protective layer immediately after buying a brand-name bag.
