Leather moves, brands and evolves. Hereby, minor irregularities in the leather can occur. This is normal and no error in the production but a natural phenomenon, because leather is still a natural material.
The leather of Neuville is pretreated. This means that Neuville bags require no sealing and no regular treatment. They evolve over time. However, there are some tips in order to prevent traces of wear.
We recommend avoiding prolonged contact with water, sun and rough textiles (a light handbag can not stand much contact with dark jeans). If your bag is stained, it is preferable to use colorless products designed for leather. There are cheaper alternatives : cotton lightly moistened cleansing milk or baby wipes may as well remove the stain on the leather. Avoid, however, to do this on a white bag.
Also avoid using colored polishes as they may rub off on your clothes.
