2NDSKIN’s Top tips for Leather!

All 2NDSKIN leather bags, jackets, belts and shoes can last a lifetime, just remember to treat well!

Leather, just like your skin needs to be cleaned and nourished to help retain its texture and appearance.  Without proper care, leather will dry out, eventually cracking and stiffening.

2NDSKIN Leather shoes and leather bags should be polished and conditioned regularly to preserve their life. Always choose a product that helps preserve the leather’s natural oils rather than strip them away. Simply use leather cleaner and a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Use a leather conditioner to soothe and soften your shoe and/or bag. Once dried, apply a water-proofer sealer which acts as a repellent.

HOW TO CARE FOR ME

Snake skin is known for its beauty, strength and elasticity. It will only become greater as the piece ages. One of the rewards of properly taking care of a python skin item is to extend its life and get more enjoyment out of this unique skin.

Do not wear your 2NDSKIN Snake skin shoes in the rain! Wet-weather or dirty terrain may cause dyes to run, resulting in water damage to the python skin, as dyed snake skin finishes are not weather proof.

Do care for your treated 2NDSKIN snake skin item by wiping surface dirt using a damp cloth in direction of the scales. Brush off any excess dirt with a soft bristled brush, careful not to lift the scales. Condition your snake skin with an exotic leather conditioner (Lanolin based is best) specifically for exotic skins.

Do apply silicone water repellent to your 2NDSKIN snake skin item; this helps to maintain the original look and prevents drying out.

Please note: All exotic skins are treated with different dyes to obtain different effects and colours. With some finishes the dye will not be sealed, instead the skin will have a more natural, raw or muted look. Snake skin scales are also prone to ‘lifting’ as they are fine scales of natural variation, texture and grain.

By following these simple rules your 2NDSKIN snake skin item will last for years to come!

Leather… more versatile than denim, hipper than cashmere and cheaper than diamonds!

Follow these simple steps and your 2NDSKIN leather item will always impress:

  • DO NOT expose your leather to direct sunlight or to any heat source for a prolonged period of time.
  • DO NOT get your lether wet! Never wear leather in the rain as it absorbs water quickly and can be destroyed. If your leather piece gets wet simply allow it to air dry.
  • DO NOT spray hairspray or perfume while wearing your leather items. 
  • DO NOT store leather in plastic, it can not breathe!
  • DO store your leather items in a temperate environment using the breathable 2NDSKIN dust bag.
