Nature is a classic vegetable-tanned, undyed leather with great potential to develop over time. The light natural leather changes and darkens when exposed to light, moisture, and everyday wear. You can influence the development by treating the leather with leather care products for protection and nourishment.

To protect the leather from water stains without altering its natural color, you can use a leather spray that provides a protective surface. If you want to nourish the leather and achieve a more even, darker tone, you can use products such as leather balm, leather fat, or leather oil. There is a wide selection of leather care products available at well-stocked shoemakers. Choose a product that is suitable for the specific type of leather and always test on the underside or another hidden area before treating the entire bag, as the color and texture of the leather may be affected. Be careful not to use too much fat as it can saturate the leather and weaken its natural elasticity. Use a small amount of leather care product, make sure to wipe off any excess, and repeat the treatment as needed.

Remember that vegetable-tanned leather will change even after treatment and that it can never be completely protected against stains. We love this natural process that gives each item a unique character.
