Leather Care Guide

Because timeless leather deserves lasting care. Your Doeksak is made from genuine, natural leather, chosen for its character, texture, and durability. Like all natural materials, it needs a little love and attention to keep it looking its best. Follow these simple steps to protect and preserve your bag for years to come.

Before first use, apply a leather protector spray to waterproof and preserve your bag.

  • Always test the spray on a small, hidden area first.
  • Reapply every few months to guard against moisture and stains.
  • Keep your bag away from excessive water, oil, or chemicals.

Leather can dry out over time, so regular conditioning is key.

  • Use a leather conditioner once a month.
  • Apply a small amount to a soft cloth and gently rub into the leather in circular motions.
  • This restores moisture and gives your bag a natural sheen.
  • Wipe your bag with a soft, dry cloth — avoid using water or soaking the leather.
  • If it gets wet, let it air dry naturally (away from heaters or direct sunlight).
  • Never use baby wipes or harsh cleaners, as they may damage the leather.
  • Avoid rubbing stains — rather blot gently and allow to dry before conditioning.
  • Keep your bag out of direct sunlight to avoid fading.
  • Store in a dust bag or breathable fabric cover when not in use.
  • Avoid overstuffing, which can stretch the leather or alter its shape.

Scratches, marks, and slight variations are normal features of natural leather and add to its unique beauty. These are not defects — they’re part of your bag’s story.
