Thank you for choosing to support Bowman Leather with your purchase. We are confident that you will be delighted with your item and that it will bring you many years of happiness.

Here are some care instructions to ensure that you can enjoy your purchase to the fullest:

1. Conditioning - Over time, vegetable-tanned leather may lose some of its natural oils due to contact with skin or clothing. To prevent it from drying out, we recommend applying a natural wax conditioner periodically. You can find this conditioner at the Bowman Leather store.

2. Breaking in - If you are new to vegetable-tanned leather, you may initially find it to be stiff compared to chrome-tanned leather. This is normal and part of the unique journey you will have with your product. With regular use, you will notice the leather becoming softer and gradually moulding to its intended use.

3. Water spillages - Vegetable-tanned leather is a natural material that breathes. If your item gets wet, simply allow it to dry naturally. Avoid using heat sources or direct sunlight, as they may cause the leather to become stiff or discoloured.

We hope these care instructions help you maintain the beauty and longevity of your Bowman Leather item. Thank you again for your support.

A brand new veg tan leather item fresh out of the box may feel a bit stiff. This is normal and part of the beautiful journey that you go on. First, take some time to gently pull and flex the leather. This will help loosen the fibres and begin the process of the leather moulding to your body and carrying style. Over time the leather will soften and begin to develop a patina and it will gain its own unique style that only you possess.
