ANNY BAG IVORY

Split velour is a type of genuine leather — a delicate material made of the lower layer of the hide after removing the smooth outer surface. As a result of this treatment, the surface of the material takes on a soft, velvety texture with a nap.

Compared to regular suede, split leather is denser and rougher, but this makes it more suitable for items that need to retain their shape.

Split velour has an unprotected surface, so it requires more careful home maintenance.

• Before the first use, apply a protective spray for suede or nubuck.
• Items made of suede split leather may shed small particles of nap — this is a natural characteristic of the material, that disappears after 1-2 weeks of use.
• For white and light-colored items, avoid close contact with items that may stain or transfer color.
• Any type of dark skin can stain light-coloured items, but this property is lost after several weeks of active use.

Suede split leather is very sensitive to moisture: avoid direct contact with water or dampness. Do not use the item in rainy weather or provide your bag with additional protection with a raincoat or water repellent.

• If the item gets wet, leave it to dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use additional heat sources.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners, as they may scratch or damage the leather surface.
• Avoid contact with chemicals, wet wipes, oils, cosmetics and perfumes, as these can cause stains.
• Regularly clean the surface of the item with a soft suede brush, moving it only in one direction to maintain the evenness of the material.
• For home cleaning, we recommend the NÚKOT universal leather care kit, created for bags and accessories made from various types of leather.
• If the item is worn regularly, we recommend home cleaning once a month. Please strictly follow the instructions on our Care page (How to clean a suede or split velour leather bag at home).
• Do not attempt to remove large stains on your own. Professional cleaning should be performed exclusively by a specialized workshop that works with suede or split leather products.

take care!
