Question 11

How should I care for a leather product?

Accepted Answer

Avoid prolonged soaking and do not dry leather directly on a radiator or in strong sunlight. After getting wet, let the product dry naturally at room temperature and occasionally treat it with a suitable leather conditioner.

Question 12

Can my dog go into water with a leather collar or harness?

Accepted Answer

Occasional rain or a short swim is usually fine, but long-term soaking is not ideal for leather. For frequent swimming we recommend using special water-friendly or working gear instead.

Question 13

How long will a leather product last?

Accepted Answer

With proper care, a leather product can last for many years. Quality leather develops a natural patina over time and retains its functionality and appearance when treated reasonably.
