Congratulations! You own one of our Arthur & Aston leather bags ! Now, you are wondering about its maintenance, how to remove a stain or how to store it carefully? Don't worry, we have thought of everything so that you can keep your leather bag for as long as possible!
Cleaning: How do I clean my leather bag?
Your Arthur & Aston leather bag is the apple of your eye, it follows you in all your daily adventures. But there you go, an accident can quickly happen and a stain can appear on the leather of your beloved bag! Don't panic, there are solutions!
A spilled glass can happen quickly! In the case of a liquid spilled on your bag, first absorb the excess liquid with absorbent paper such as paper towels or a napkin. Then, clean the stain with soap (for stains caused by water), warm milk (those caused by ink) or white vinegar (for blood stains). The most impressive stains are those caused by a greasy substance. In this case, use talcum powder or Fuller's earth (easily found in supermarkets) and leave for several hours before brushing.
Finally, always remember to clean your entire bag to avoid color marks.
Caring for your leather bag
Maintaining your leather bag is the solution to keep it in good condition for as long as possible. First thing: once your day is over, store your bag away from direct light to prevent the color from fading. Store it in a fabric bag or in the cover received on the day of your purchase. When you store your bag for a few weeks or months in a closet (during a change of season for example), place newspaper inside so that its shape does not change.
Finally, for daily maintenance, treat yourself to a maintenance kit with cream to nourish the leather and a small brush for cleaning.
Your Arthur & Aston leather bag will face the elements throughout its life. To keep it by your side for as long as possible, apply all our advice above and you're done! If in doubt, do not hesitate to contact us or visit one of our stores .
