All leathers age naturally according to the usage. It is possible the base color may show through the leather as it ages with wear. When not in use we recommend storing your product in the protective dust bag provided to keep your product looking its best. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat, sunlight, water, and chemical cleaners to maintain the brilliance of the design. Should your product get wet, allow to dry naturally away from direct heat. To clean surface wipe only with a damp lint free cotton cloth.
