While there’s no denying the fact that leather is one of the most stylish and attractive materials on the face of Earth, it can become damage if it’s not properly maintained. Whether you own a pair of leather shoes, a belt, backpack or any other item, you need to know how to keep it protected; otherwise, you may find yourself spending more of your money and time trying to repair it. Keep reading and we’ll reveal some of the most common causes of leather damage and why you should avoid them. Sunlight While the occasional exposure to sunlight probably won’t cause any noticeable change in your leather, long-term exposure may cause it to fade over time. If you enjoy the dark, natural color of your leather, you should try to get into the habit of keeping it away from the sun. This doesn’t necessary mean you have to avoid wearing your leather boots or apparel outside, but you should avoid leaving them outside where the sun is constantly beaming down on them. In addition to fading, sunlight can also cause leather to crack and dry out to the point where it’s no longer able to be repaired. Naturally, leather holds some moisture inside of it which keeps it flexible and prevents it from cracking. When it’s exposed to sunlight for prolonged lengths of time, this moisture will evaporate from the leather, causing it to dry out and crack. Moisture As stated above, leather holds some moisture inside of it, and while this is perfectly fine, too much moisture may cause it to rot. If you happen to spill water...

If you’ve done any shopping for leather clothing, footwear or furniture before, then you’ve probably come across a handful of different types. The feel and functionality between the different types of leather varies greatly, which is why it’s important to educate yourself on them. Here, we’ll take a look at two of the most common leathers, top-grain and full-grain, and reveal the benefits and downsides to using each of them. Before we go into what’s top-grain and what’s full-grain leather, lets first take a look at what leather is. Basically, leather is defined as the hide of any animal which has undergone the tanning process. Most of the commercial leather products you’ll find are the market use the tanned hides from cows, but it’s not uncommon to find high-end leather products made from deer and lambskin. When products call for a softer leather, deer and lambskin hide is typically used. Different types of leather have their own advantages It’s important to realize that there is no “best” type of leather. While one type might be ideal for constructing a mens jacket with, it probably wont be as effective when used for furniture. Essentially, you have to look at what purpose the leather is being used for. Full-grain leather Full-grain leather is the the most popular, and expensive, type of leather on the market. It’s made from using the traditional tanning process, but focuses on keeping the hide as close to its natural state as possible. As opposed to other types of leather, there’s no stripping of the grains or imperfections of the leather, which leaves it looking natural. When...

There’s nothing that compares to the look and comfort of genuine leather. It’s a classic, elegant material that’s unmatched in terms of aesthetics. Perhaps this is why leather jackets are still popular after all of these years. If you’re going to invest in leather, though, there are a few things you should know. Don’t Speed-Dry Leather If your leather happens to get wet, dry it slowly rather than attempting to speed-dry it. Some people automatically go for the hair dryer when they spill water on their leather garments. But using a hair dryer or other speed-drying techniques triggers certain chemical reactions within the garment, affecting its look, texture and overall quality. A better approach is to wipe the water or liquid off the surface of your leather garment and let it air dry. Don’t Leave It Outside I know this probably sounds like common sense to most people, but don’t leave your leather garments outside. Leather is sensitive to sunlight and moisture, both of which are readily available outside. The sun’s powerful UV A/B rays will penetrate through the leather, causing it to fade and even crack open. And moisture is equally as damaging, as it encourages the formation of mold and mildew, which can ruin an otherwise perfect leather garment. Do Moisturize Your Leather With a Conditioning Product If you haven’t done so already, invest in a premium leather conditioning product (sold at most leather shops). Leather needs to be moisturized on a regular basis to preserve its integrity, which is where a conditioning product comes into play: it offers just the right amount of moisture, preserving the...
