I searched this thread and couldn't come up with any info -- I have a Nutmeg tote and wondered how you guys were cleaning the velvet matte leathers? Mine seems to be sucking up dirt/dye -- I've only worn it with super faded jeans and and it still looks like it had denim transfer on it. Can I safely use Apple conditioner (or cleaner) on it to try to get the stains out? I don't have a lot of matte bags for this exact reason but that Nutmeg was just irresistible
OH..pls do be super careful with this leather! I performed some tests with the larger swatch I have and the Nutmeg did NOT respond too well!
It sucks up all liquid and the lotions I tried to treat it with dried the leather into something hard and spotty!
This leather is NOT like the regular mattes, it is very porous! The regular mattes can take almost anything..like lotion, sprays and after some wear even rain. But the velvets are different.
(FYI..I love it! Just BEC'd the very last of it and got an Inpire me too)
Denims are bad for many bags, so I hope you can carefully brush some transfer out with one of the special rubber brushes one can use on suedes.
