I purchased my first Botkier bag - east/west trigger satchel, and I love it. I love the soft, pebble leather.
I live in Seattle, so I need to waterproof it!
So, what type of leather care products do you use on your Botkier bags? I've searched for days on this forum about the different brands that people use on their bags, and I can't seem to decide what I want to try.
I was considering the Coach products, but it says not to use on 'pebbled leather' so I think I'll stay away from that one.
On the Botkier site, it says:
Care of bags
Botkier Handbags are made of beautiful Italian leather. Grain and slight differences of color are characteristics of the leather. The leather is natural, untreated (in most cases), and can spot and sometimes lose color. Particular care is recommended for Laminate colors (metallic) because contact with lacquer, perfume, and anything containing alcohol and derivatives can cause damage. As with all quality leather they should be treated with a weatherproof protection and care.
