How do I take care of leather elements on my padding or gear?

Leather likes respect – not drama.

  • Keep it dry. If it gets wet, let it air-dry naturally (no heaters, no sun baking).
  • Condition lightly with leather balm or oil every few months to prevent cracking.
  • Avoid soaking or harsh chemicals — they weaken the fibers.
  • If dirt builds up, wipe with a damp cloth, nothing aggressive.
  • Store your gear in a cool, ventilated place, not in a sealed bag.

Healthy leather lasts longer, bends better, and stays battle-ready.
