How to preserve quality over the years
IF IT GETS WET
Gently rub the leather with a clean cloth to remove excess moisture. Let it dry away from direct sunlight.
IF IT DRIES OUT
To restore its suppleness, apply a small amount of natural wax or our calendula-based cream to the leather and rub gently.
IF IT GETS DIRTY
To remove or reduce stains, use only natural products that are compatible with your product's type of leather.

Care products
Il Bisonte leather truly stands the test of time and use. The older it gets, the more beautiful it becomes.
We’ve chosen the best products to care for your bags and small leather goods to help enhance these changes and allow them to last even longer.
Suede care tips
All Il Bisonte products are made from the highest quality leather which allow its beauty and uniqueness to last for a very long time. Suede is a precious and delicate leather, and requires regular care to maintain its special characteristics. That's why each of our products made from this magnificent natural material comes with a free brush designed specifically for suede care.
We recommend that you:
Clean your suede product regularly by gently wiping it with a dry cloth. When deeper cleaning is needed, use the brush provided to make small strokes that follow the grain of the leather.
Protect it from water and, if it does get wet, blot it with a cloth to absorb the moisture, let it air dry. Suede items may bleed slightly upon contact with light-colored clothing.
Store it carefully in a cool, dry place, preferably inside our fabric dust bag.
Fabric care tips
To clean your cotton and linen canvas or poly-cotton bags and accessories we recommend you wipe them gently with a damp cloth.
For stubborn stains, use a suitable stain remover specific to the type of fabric.
Opt for natural products and avoid using bleach and detergents.
