Leather is a natural material, and as such, it comes with its own unique set of characteristics. Scratches, patina, color variation, markings, and wrinkles are all part of the natural character of leather and should be expected in Moore & Giles Leather pieces. These natural surface markings are considered signatures of nature and contribute to the uniqueness of each hide. It is important to note that these traits are not defects but rather add to the distinct beauty of the leather.
Moore & Giles products are treated lightly to showcase the natural characteristics of the hide. The sealant used is breathable, which allows the leather to develop a patina over time. Any scratches that occur will eventually work themselves out. In case you need to remove a scratch quickly, you can indirectly warm the wax in the finish by placing the bag near a heat source. Then, use a damp cloth to rub out the scratch. For extra care, please visit our No. 33 Luxury Leather Conditioner & Restorer product page.
