Default Treating Pebbled leather
Hi Girls!

When my Orange Pebbled Luxe Hold Me arrives, do I need to treat it? Any product recommendations? I have Apple Leather care, would that work?

Also, is this leather ok to use in the rain?

Thanks in advance

I haven't treated mine with anything. I took it out on a rainy day and while it didn't get soaked, what rain drops did get on it just dried out on their own. One larger drop I just sort of dabbed at with a dry cloth to soak up any extra moisture. It left no marks on it whatsoever!

This leather is fine in the rain. My two pebbled bags have gotten wet and dried out without a problem. I pre-treat all bags with Wilson's TLC spray and that is all I did for those- just a waterproofing'pretreat kind of spray. If Apple makes something like that, I'd just use what you have.

Wilson's TLC spray is the best! I've never had it change the color of my leather, it dries quickly and isn't costly. I haven't used it on my pebbled leathers but have used it on my matte leathers and it works great! I need to purchase some more!

Thanks everyone! I'm really lazy about taking care of my bags, so this is great news.
