Some FAQs
Can I use this for my Bag / Jacket / Shoes / Wallet / Sofa?
The short answer is YES. The long answer is that - the product does not matter, as long as it is made with non-fuzzy leather. Meaning, the leather has a smooth surface grain and does is not a suede or nubuck leather.
Does it work only for Full Grain Leather?
We have created the formulations to work on ANY type of leather EXCEPT Suede, Nubuck or hair-on leathers. These are leathers which do not have a grain, or the grain is hidden under hair. You can use it for genuine leather, top-grain leather, crunch leather, oil pull-up leather, nappa leather, goat leather etc.
It works well for all types of tannage, chrome tanned leathers, vegetable tanned leathers, or other mineral tanned leathers.
How to I apply it?
Use a soft cotton cloth, or an applicator brush for the Saddle Soap. For the Leather Balm, use a soft cloth or just your hand.
