FAQ
How should I care for my leather bag?
You can start using your bag straight out of the box. Leather works well even in bad weather conditions, and getting wet is fine as long as it is properly cared for. The harder the use, the faster the patina, but that only adds character to the bag.
Treat with wax every 4-6 months or when the leather feels like it's drying. Wipe the leather to clean it. With a cloth, spread a thin layer of wax on the leather. Allow the wax to permeate overnight and then polish the remainders off with a cotton or wool cloth. The scent of tar will fade away in a couple of days; if a lot of wax is applied, this will take longer.
We recommend using natural products like beeswax or natural oils. Synthetic leather protection can block the pores of the leather, reducing its ability to absorb wax and oils, ultimately reducing the lifespan of the bag.
How long is the break-in period of the leather bag?
We believe that leather is the best material for bags because it conforms to our bodies over time and can last for decades while remaining in good condition.
Like all high-quality leather goods, Kasperi bags also have a break-in period. It will take a couple of weeks of active use for the shoulder straps to start forming
