How to Care for Leather Bags: Complete Guide

Vegan Leather Structured Handbag - Maroon

PU leather is prized for looking and feeling like traditional leather while being easier to maintain — but a little regular care still goes a long way in keeping your bag looking new for years.

Daily habits that protect your bag

  • Avoid overstuffing your bag, which can stretch the material and distort its shape over time.
  • Set your bag down on clean, dry surfaces to avoid scuffs and stains.
  • Keep it away from direct, prolonged sunlight, which can cause fading.

Cleaning your PU leather bag

  1. Wipe regularly: Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe away dust and surface dirt.
  2. Spot clean stains: For marks, use a mild soap diluted in water, apply gently with a soft cloth, then wipe with a clean damp cloth.
  3. Dry naturally: Let your bag air-dry away from direct heat or sunlight; never use a hairdryer or heater.
  4. Avoid harsh chemicals: Skip alcohol-based cleaners or solvents, which can crack or discolor PU leather.

Storing your bag

When not in use, stuff your bag lightly with soft paper or cloth to help it hold its shape, and store it in a dust bag or soft cloth away from direct sunlight and humidity. Avoid hanging bags by their straps for long periods, as this can stretch the handles.

A few things to avoid

  • Perfume or hairspray sprayed directly onto the bag
  • Prolonged exposure to water or heavy rain
  • Stacking heavy items on top of a stored bag
