Bags are an essential item in fashion collocation. Sometimes when you buy a bag you like, carelessness during use may damage the bag. How can these situations be avoided, or how can losses be minimized when problems occur? Today I will share with you some common problems, solutions, and precautions in the use of leather bags.
1.If the bag is often exposed to the sun, it is easy to fade, so you should avoid prolonged exposure to the sun and strong light during the use of the bag.
The bag should be dried in a cool and dry place before storage. To keep the bag in good shape when it is not used for a long time, you should stuff a proper amount of clean old newspapers or old clothes inside the bag before storing it. It is best to put a few bags of moisture-proof beads to prevent the bag from becoming moldy and deformed.
When the bag is not in use, it is best to hang it up. When it is laid flat, it will not be crushed and wrinkled by other things or stained by other clothes, which will affect its appearance.
2.When the bag is exposed to rain on rainy days, it needs to be wiped dry in time and placed in a ventilated place to dry to prevent mold.If the leather bag is exposed to rain, damp, or mildew, wipe off the water stains or mildew with a soft dry cloth, then place it in a cool place and let it dry naturally. Never put the bag directly in the sun, next to the air conditioner, or dry it with a hair dryer.
3.Because sweat will often touch the hardware, or the hardware will be prone to oxidation when it comes into contact with an acidic liquid.The hardware on the bag should be wiped with a dry cloth after use, never wipe it with water, otherwise, the best hardware will oxidize in a short time. If it is slightly oxidized, just wipe it lightly with flour or toothpaste. Don’t let the grayness of the metal part destroy the overall aesthetics of the bag and lower your taste.
4.Since the body of the belt is subject to sweat infiltration and the belt is frequently tightened, it is prone to deformation or even breakage after a long time, so try to avoid tightening the belt during use.
5.Because part of the shovel leather is too thin, the stitching is less than one millimeter, and the leather material ages over time, so there will be cracks on the oil edge.Therefore, the interlayer should not be filled with too many solid substances such as cards or coins, and maintain its appropriate degree of relaxation.
6.In addition, do not let the leather bag close to any heater, otherwise, the leather will become drier and drier, and the elasticity and softness of the leather will gradually disappear.
7.If the zipper is not smooth during use, apply candles or leather wax to the zipper to improve the effect.
8.Try not to use the same bag every day, it will easily cause elastic fatigue of the cortex, and it is best to use it interactively.
Even the most beautiful leather bags will not be put aside for people to watch. We use them every day, as simple as daily necessities, and even accompany us on our journey around the world. So purses, wallets, travel bags, leather gloves, and more will wear out. The most important way to maintain is to know how to cherish. Some precautions in daily use are the most basic common sense of leather maintenance.
