Care instructions of Pykara dyed shoulder strap:

For thecare of your leather, we advise you in general: To pay particular attention to exposure to light, which can alter the colour of your leather, to always dust your leather with a dry cloth before applying a specific treatment. In case of contact with water, let your leather dry naturally, at room temperature, without any additional heat source.
For the care of our saddle leather Pykara pigmented dyed, the food will remain on the surface of the leather without penetrating it on the grain side because the pigments form an impermeable protective film. Food can be added to the flesh side of the leather to restore suppleness.
