Leather care — FAMACO Paris

Made to last. Cared for to last longer.

Our bags are handmade in Portugal from real leather and suede. A few minutes of care keeps them soft, rich in colour and ready for years. Three products from FAMACO Paris, the French leather care house since 1931.

Your bag's routine, in four steps

Ten minutes, a clean table and your bag. That's all it takes.

  1. 01

    Brush

    Empty your bag and brush off dust and loose dirt with the soft-bristle brush. On suede, brush gently in one direction to lift the texture.

  2. 02

    Clean

    Put a little cleaning foam on the sponge and clean in small circles, without rubbing hard. Wipe off the excess with a damp cloth and let it air-dry.

  3. 03

    Nourish

    On smooth leather, massage a little Leather Lotion with a soft cloth in small circles. Let it dry, then buff lightly. Every 2–3 months is enough.

  4. 04

    Protect

    Once it's dry, spray the protector evenly from 20–30 cm. Let it dry completely. Repeat every 4–6 weeks, or more often in rainy months.

Suede & nubuck

Use very little foam and a light hand. Skip the lotion — it's for smooth leather only. The protector is a must: suede marks easily with rain.

Good to know

Three things leather doesn't like

Heat

Never dry a wet bag on a radiator or with a hairdryer. Let it dry slowly at room temperature, stuffed with paper to keep its shape.

Soaking

If it gets caught in the rain, blot it right away with a soft, dry cloth. Don't rub and don't put it in water to clean it.

Long hours in the sun

Strong sun fades colour and dries leather out. Store your bag in its dust bag, away from windows, when you're not using it.

Questions, answered

Yes. The Cleaning Foam Set and the Waterproof Protector Spray work on every leather and suede bag we make; the Leather Lotion is for smooth leather only. Check the material guide above, and try them first on a small hidden spot.

Blot it gently with a soft, dry cloth and let it air-dry at room temperature. Keep it away from radiators, hairdryers and direct sun — heat dries the leather out.

Clean it whenever it needs it. Reapply the waterproof spray every 4–6 weeks, or more often if your bag gets a lot of rain.
