Remove Surface Dust

Use a soft-bristled horsehair brush to gently sweep away loose dirt and dust from hand-tooled grooves and seams.

Damp Cloth Wipe

Dampen a lint-free microfiber cloth with distilled water. Wipe the entire surface in circular motions to remove surface salts.

Spot Clean Stains

For stubborn mud or residue, apply a pea-sized amount of leather cleaner to a damp cloth and gently buff.

Natural Air Dry

Lay your gear flat on a clean surface. Allow it to air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources.

Apply your choice of conditioning oil then remove and let dry.

Careful With Your Leather
  • Never use harsh detergents or household chemicals on handcrafted leather.
  • Avoid direct sunlight or radiators during the drying process to prevent cracking.
  • Do not saturate the leather in water; moisture should be managed sparingly.
  • Stay away from abrasive sponges that could damage the artisan tooling or dye.

The Vital Restoration

Hand-forged fantasy armor lives and breathes with its wearer. Over time, environmental exposure and the heat of the field draw the natural moisture from the original hide, leaving the fibers brittle and prone to fatigue. We recommend a thorough conditioning every three to six months to preserve the supple strength required for maximum mobility and legendary longevity.

Apply a premium wax-based leather balm using a clean, soft cloth. Work in small circular motions until the grain can absorb no more. This ritual restores the deep oils that keep your gear resilient against cracks and the elements, ensuring your protective hide remains as enduring as the stories you carve into the world.

Defy the Heat

Never store armor near heaters or in direct sunlight. Excessive heat strips natural oils, causing irreversible drying and cracking of the hide.

Control Humidity

Leather needs to breathe. Avoid damp basements and use cotton garment bags instead of plastic to prevent mold and mildew from claiming your gear. Keep humitity below 70 and above 55.

Tame the Cold

Extreme cold makes leather brittle. Keep your handcrafted pieces in a temperature-stable room to ensure they remain supple and ready for the next event.
