Simple care for quality leather products.

The following notes provide guidelines to looking after the leather products offered by Packer Leather:

Footwear
Remove excess mud and dry naturally.
Suede and nubuck should have the nap restored with a soft brush if necessary.
Full grain leathers can be polished with a little neutral shoe cream.
Because Packer Leather’s water repellent technology is a permanent treatment, there is no need for further enhancing with waxes and creams. However, customers wishing to treat stitching or eyelets should use Nik Wax.

Gloves – Hand wash
K-100 Gloving leathers are hand washable for easy care. For best results:
Produce a good lather in lukewarm (30°C) water using mild detergent or soapflakes.
Immerse the gloves and wash gently on your hands (i.e. whilst wearing the gloves).
Remove gloves and rinse thoroughly in clean cold water.
Squeeze out all excess water from the fingers downwards and pull gently into shape.
Hang to dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
White gloves should not be washed with coloured articles. Coloured gloves may be washed with articles of a similar colour provided the above instructions are followed.
For best results wash gloves before they become too soiled.

Gloves - Machine wash
Wash the gloves on the low temperature (up to 30°C) gentle cycle of a domestic washing machine (only where recommended).
Use a mild soap or soap flakes that are recommended for washing woollens.
Cotton or synthetic washing materials and those containing bleach or Sodium Perborate are not suitable.
Do not use any fabric conditioner.
Do not use strong washing materials as they may cause damage to the leather's performance properties.
Ensure that the gloves are thoroughly rinsed.
Spin gently, pull into shape and hang to dry in natural room temperature away from direct sunlight.
DO NOT TUMBLE DRY OR PLACE DIRECTLY ON THE SURFACE OF A RADIATOR.
When nearly dry, put the gloves on your hands to restore shape and softness.
Remove from your hands and hang up to dry fully.
When dry place on your hands and buff the surface with a soft cloth. Use a suede brush to restore the nap on suede gloves.
