The 300 euro mistake: what to never do with your fine leather bag
Imagine the scene: you have just left our showroom in Corso di Porta Romana with your new leather bag, a small artisan masterpiece that you have dreamed of for months. Then it happens. That coffee stain, that sudden rain, that wrong cleaning product... And your investment risks turning into an expensive regret.
The True Cost of Mistakes
When we talk about fine leather bags, handmade by our artisans in the Marche region, we are not just talking about an accessory: we are talking about a wearable work of art. And like any work of art, it deserves the right attention. A mistake in maintenance can easily translate into a loss of hundreds of euros, if not in the irreparable compromise of the leather.
The Most Common (and Expensive) Mistakes
1. The Wild "Do It Yourself"
How many times have you thought of solving a stain with the first product found under the sink? Stop! That bottle of universal degreaser could be the perfect killer for your bag. Fine leather requires specific and certified products.
2. The "It's Not Raining Anyway" Syndrome
Going out without waterproofing is like playing Russian roulette with your bag. Water is one of the most insidious enemies of leather: it can create stains, alter the color and, in the worst cases, irreparably damage the structure of the leather.
3. The Wild Deposit Error
Storing your bag crumpled in the back of your closet is like parking a Ferrari in a plowed field. Leather needs to breathe and keep its shape. Always use the appropriate fabric bags and pads.
How to Protect Your Investment
Prevention is Everything
- Apply regularly (every 3-4 months) a protective product specific to the type of leather of your bag
- Store the bag in a dry and ventilated environment
- Always use the protective bag supplied
- In case of rain, dry the bag immediately with a soft cloth
