CARE & WARRANTY

LEATHER CARE

The slight imperfections in the leather are natural characteristics of the hides and should be seen as qualities and proof of authenticity. In order to preserve the original quality of the product we advice you to keep it away from heat, sun and humidity which might darken the leather over time. Because of the living nature of the leather, changes in hue or color might occur even when stored properly in a dark place. If exposed to rain you should dry the piece immediately with a dry soft neutral cloth and leave in a well-aired place with normal room temperature. Do not try to fasten the drying process with a hairdryer, drying cabinet or element as it might preserve the darkened water stains. Because of the open pores and untreated, naked nature of the leather stains from cosmetics, oil and water might remain despite proper measures taken. The hides might as well absorb other colors from textiles and clothing while being carried. This could be solved by treating the colored area with a leather cream the same color as the leather.

 

When not used, please store the piece in the accompanied dust bag on a dark place with normal room temperature. If needed fill the bag with paper and store any crossbody straps outside of the dust bag, preferably hanged in a closet. Treat the leather with leather protection cream or leather conditioner from time to time, depending on use, but not too often. Be aware that some creams or oils could darken the leather. Avoid buying creams with silicone or other synthetic ingredients. Please advice your local shoe repair shop or leather craftsman for further advice on protection creams and conditioners.

 

REPAIRS & RECONDITIONS

We encourage you to visit your local leather craftsman for repairs or a recondition of your good. If you still would prefer us doing the work we could be of help for a fee, please email customercare@gardendal.se and we will get in touch with you.

 

WARRANTY

All of our pieces come with a one year warranty from the date of purchase.
