All RUSKIN leathers are genuine, natural materials, selected for their character, depth and ability to age beautifully over time. As with all natural leather, subtle variations in tone, grain and texture are inherent and part of what makes each piece unique.

With considered care, your leather will develop a rich patina and soften with use, becoming more personal over time.

To clean your leather, gently wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to remove surface dust or light marks. Allow the leather to dry naturally, away from direct heat, sunlight or humidity.

Avoid prolonged exposure to water, oils, perfumes, cosmetics or abrasive surfaces, as these may stain or alter the finish. If your piece does become wet, blot gently with a dry cloth and let it dry naturally.

We recommend storing your RUSKIN piece in its dust bag when not in use, and keeping it in a cool, dry place to maintain its shape and finish.

Occasionally, you may apply a high-quality leather balm or neutral conditioner sparingly to nourish the leather and help preserve its suppleness.

We are also delighted to offer a complimentary care service in our studio. If you would like to bring your RUSKIN piece in, we will be pleased to assess it and provide considered care to help maintain its condition and longevity.

With time and care, your RUSKIN leather will evolve beautifully, reflecting the life it has lived with you.

Although RUSKIN tweed is naturally durable, we recommend treating your bag with care to preserve its character and longevity. For light marks or common stains, gently clean the area using warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth. Always carry out a spot test on an inconspicuous area before cleaning.

Please do not immerse your bag in water, as this may compromise the structure of the inner lining and cause puckering. Prolonged exposure to water may also damage the leather detailing and natural finish of the bag.
