WALLETSPLUS Leather Care Guide

Crafted to Last. Designed to Age Gracefully.

With proper care, your WALLETSPLUS leather piece will not only endure but develop a beautiful patina unique to your story. Here’s how to keep it looking its best.

Daily Care
• Gently wipe your leather item with a soft, dry cotton cloth to remove dust and surface dirt.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, heat sources, or humidity, which can cause leather to dry out or discolour.
• When not in use, store your item in the cotton dust bag in a cool, dry place. Leather needs to breathe—never store in plastic or airtight containers.

Storage Tips
• Each product is shipped with soft paper to maintain its shape—reuse this paper when storing.
• Avoid overloading your bag, which can distort its shape and put stress on the leather.

Conditioning & Cleaning
• To keep leather soft and nourished, occasionally use a leather conditioner or cream suitable for your specific leather type. When in doubt, a thin layer of petroleum jelly can work—but always test on a small hidden area first.
• Avoid using water, alcohol, or harsh chemicals. If your item gets wet, let it air dry naturally in a shaded area. Never use a hair dryer or place it near heat.

Dealing with Stains & Mold
• For light dirt or mud, use a barely damp cloth to gently wipe the surface. Water and leather don’t mix well—so use sparingly.
• For tough stains, we recommend consulting a professional leather specialist. Avoid DIY kits or internet remedies that may do more harm than good.
• If Mold appears (often due to humidity or poor storage), wipe gently with a damp towel and allow the leather to dry completely. Regular dusting and cool, dry storage will help prevent this.


A Final Word
Leather is a natural material—it evolves with use, showing signs of life and character. Caring for your WALLETSPLUS product is a ritual that honours its craftsmanship and extends its legacy.

What are Hand-Tooled Leathers?

Leather, a material known for its durability and timeless appeal, has captivated artisans for centuries. Among the various techniques used to transform this versatile material, hand-tooling stands out as an exquisite art form. The meticulous process of hand-tooling leather allows skilled craftsmen to create unique, personalized designs that elevate leather goods to new heights. Today, we will delve into the unexplored world of hand-tooled leather products, exploring the artistry, techniques, and enduring beauty that define this exceptional craft.

Hand-tooling is a labour-intensive technique that involves imprinting or carving intricate designs onto leather surfaces. Skilled artisans use specialized tools, such as swivel knives, bevelers, and stamping tools, to create patterns and textures. The process requires patience, precision, and a deep understanding of the leather’s properties. From floral motifs to geometric patterns, hand-tooling allows craftsmen to breathe life into their creations, making each piece a work of art.

One of the most remarkable aspects of hand-tooled leather products is their ability to be personalized and customized. Whether it’s a handcrafted wallet, a belt, or a journal cover, artisans at WALLETSPLUS can integrate initials, names, or meaningful symbols into your designs.

The unique combination of exquisite hand-tooled craftsmanship and the enduring quality of leather ensures that these products age gracefully, developing a rich patina over time. Hand-tooling enhances the leather’s natural beauty, while the robustness of the material ensures the products withstand daily use and even improve with age. Investing in a hand-tooled leather item means acquiring a durable piece that can be passed down through generations.

As we celebrate the art of hand-tooled leather, let us acknowledge the endowed artisans who continue to keep this ancient craft alive, ensuring that future generations can revel in the eternal attraction of these unique products.

WHAT ARE FAKE LEATHERS?

Universities abhor plagiarism.

Brands detest counterfeit copies.

Law agencies despise forged currency.

Even God hates liars and fraudsters!

Why then, do companies promote lies with their false and  misleading “LEATHER” products, when nothing in their products is actual leather?

It’s crazy even to talk about “PU Leather” or “Vegan Leather”. These are just not Leathers. It’s time we call spade a spade. Wrong information and shrill publicity with the aim of toying with consumers’ minds and sensitivities has muddled the idea of sustainability and Eco-friendly products. Let’s get it straight – “PU Leathers” are NO substitute to genuine leathers. They are NOT Biodegradable and harm the environment even more during their production process. So called “Vegan Leathers” on the other hand are NOT as durable or effective as genuine leathers.

New technology, innovations and regulations have helped leather processing and manufacturing immensely, by making it more sustainable and Eco-friendlier. New school of thought and approach with proactive leadership has changed the way leather is today processed and manufactured. Waste Management, Recycle-ability of goods, Monitoring carbon footprint, Eco-friendliness, preserving natural resources and ethical production is the only way forward.

Let us study a bit about faux leather.

Short for polyvinyl chloride, PVC leather, otherwise known as vinyl, is made by combining polyvinyl chloride with stabilisers which help protect the material, plasticisers to soften and lubricants to make the material flexible, this is then applied to a base material which are typically made from polyester, cotton, nylon, or rayon.

Out of the various options for faux leather fabrics, PVC is the most unrealistic in appearance when comparing it to real leather and also much less breathable and prone to cracking.

PVC has been labelled by Greenpeace as the “single most environmentally damaging type of plastic”. It is not biodegradable or degradable. This means that items made from PVC will retain their form for many decades and any breakdown that occurs is simply granulation where the pieces become smaller but do not disappear. PVC also creates dioxins, a group of highly toxic chemical compounds which are harmful to health and remain in the environment causing damage for many years after production. So yeah, please stop buying PVC products. Further, studies have shown that even animal life is unfortunately harmed due to the continual build-up of non-biodegradable material in the world’s ecosystems. These smaller pieces of PVC can be ingested by animals which can lead to blocked airways and other harmful consequences.

Similarly, PU (polyurethane) leather is made by applying or laminating a 100% polyurethane finish to a base material which typically include cotton, polyester, nylon, or rayon. An artificial grain pattern is then applied to the surface using a roller to produce the look of real leather.

Further, synthetic leather is produced with different chemicals and a totally different industrial process to real leather. Bonding together a plastic coating to a fabric backing is the most common way to make faux leather.

Vegan/Faux leather that is made with PVC or PU often has a very strange smell from the chemicals. It’s often described as a ‘fishy’ smell and can often be very hard to get rid of, especially while trying not to ruin the material. PVC can also outgas dangerous toxins that give off this nasty smell.

Vegan leather is also synthetic, it doesn’t form a patina like real leather does when ageing and it is much less breathable as the pores that are printed onto the surface of pleather are artificial.

Faux leather is known as vegan leather because the material used is never from animal skins but although this is a huge benefit for animal activists, the manufacture of synthetic leather is not beneficial to the environment or humans due to the toxins in the plastics used to make them. The manufacture and disposal of PVC-based synthetics let out hazardous dioxins, which can cause developmental and reproductive issues and even cause cancer. The synthetics used in vegan leathers also don’t fully biodegrade, although they can be broken down to a degree, they can also release toxic particles and phthalates, which can affect the health of animals and the environment.
