We use the best and highest quality leather we can find. Why? So that our items can last you as long as possible on all the treks and journeys you wish to take us on. While your LAND product can go on with minimal attention, we would like to take the time to share some key tips on proper leather care to help extend the enjoyable life of your product.

Leather is similar to the skin on your body. It has pores, is sensitive to light and will dry out if not properly cared for. This will happen over time with use in the sun and improper conditioning. You can clean and freshen its appearance by using our very own leather cleaner. LAND Leather Cleaner & Conditioner has been specially formulated to keep your bag looking well-conditioned, clean and protected. Fine leather deserves the utmost care; even the highest quality leather will dry out and crack if not properly taken care of.
It's common for leather to scratch and fade over time; think of it as every imperfection is a story from your many adventures. Our belief has always been that this only enhances the look of your leather item.

CLEANING & CONDITIONING YOUR LEATHER GOODS
  1. It's important to keep your leather good clean and well moisturized. Leather will easily absorb grease and oils from repeated contact with your hands and skin. We suggest cleaning & conditioning every 4-6 months to help extend the life of your leather good and keep it looking great, however you can quickly clean your leather good as need be with our cleaner as well.
  2. Apply LAND Leather Cleaner & Conditioner which has been formulated especially to keep your leather good well conditioned and preserve the life of the leather.
  3. Apply with a dry, soft cloth. A little can go a long way in this case. We recommend using a small dab for each 4 inch by 4 inch square on the item.
  4. Allow it to sit on the leather for 3-4 minutes.
  5. With another dry rag, buff out the leather good in a circular motion to leave it with a rich, warm glow.
  6. Allow leather to dry for at least 12 hours away from direct sunlight and heat.
