Product Care Guide
TAKE CARE OF YOUR LEATHER. LET IT AGE BEAUTIFULLY.
WILDSOUL products are crafted from upcycled premium genuine leather. As a natural material, leather evolves with time — becoming softer, developing subtle colour variations, and gaining a unique patina through everyday use.
With the right care, your WILDSOUL piece can age beautifully and become even more distinctive over time.
HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR LEATHER
Keep It Away From Water
Leather does not respond well to excessive moisture. Avoid rain, spills and prolonged contact with water.
If your leather product gets wet:
- Gently wipe away moisture with a soft, dry cloth.
- Allow it to air dry naturally.
- Keep it away from direct sunlight and artificial heat.
Never use a hair dryer, heater or other direct heat source to dry leather.
Clean Gently
For everyday care, simply wipe your leather product with a clean, soft cloth.
For deeper cleaning:
- Use a leather-specific cleaner suitable for your leather type.
- Always patch-test the product on a hidden area first.
- Apply gently without excessive rubbing.
Avoid bleach, alcohol-based cleaners, solvents and household cleaning products.
Condition When Needed
A suitable leather conditioner can help maintain softness and prevent the leather from becoming excessively dry.
When conditioning:
- Choose a conditioner made specifically for your leather type.
- Apply only a small amount.
- Test it on a hidden area first.
- Allow the leather to absorb the conditioner naturally.
Avoid over-conditioning, as it can affect the leather's natural finish.
Avoid Heat & Prolonged Sunlight
Keep your leather products away from:
- Direct sunlight
- Radiators and heaters
- Hot cars
- Other sources of excessive heat
Prolonged exposure to heat and UV rays can dry leather and cause natural colour changes.
Let Your Leather Breathe
Proper storage helps preserve the shape and condition of your leather product.
For best results:
- Store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place.
- Use a breathable dust bag.
- Lightly stuff bags with clean paper to help retain their shape.
- Keep leather away from damp or humid areas.
Never store leather in plastic for prolonged periods.
Don't Overload Your Bag
Avoid carrying excessive weight in your leather bag.
Overloading can:
- Stretch the leather.
- Put unnecessary pressure on handles and straps.
- Affect seams and stitching.
- Distort the original shape of the bag.
Carry only what your bag is designed to comfortably hold.
SCRATCHES & NATURAL MARKS
Your Leather Doesn't Have To Stay Perfect.
Real leather is a natural material, and small imperfections are part of its character.
Over time, you may notice:
- Minor scratches
- Natural creases
- Subtle colour variations
- Changes in texture
- A developing patina
These are natural characteristics of genuine leather — not flaws.
With time and use, your WILDSOUL product develops its own story, character and patina.
That's the beauty of genuine leather.
