The best advice we can give you for the maintenance of your Marie Martens bag is to pamper it regularly like your own skin! 

Indeed, the leather of your handbag is a natural material which deserves a simple but regular maintenance--ideally at least once every three months!

It is a question of cleaning, nourishing and protecting in order to keep the leather's brightness and its flexibility.

Use professional cleaning products adapted to leather and a clean dry cloth.

Do not neglect any corner! And don't forget: it's best to test the cleaning products on a discreet part of your bag beforehand.

If it is suede or crust leather, you can waterproof it, but there is no particular maintenance, except rubbing the stains with a soft brush.

Be extra careful with "embossed" leather such as crocodile or lizard leather, which tend to dry out, and feed them once a month.

This will give them a nice patina. If by accident your bag gets wet, don't panic! Wipe it immediately with a cloth!

If you get a grease stain on your suede bag, the Terre de Sommières product will be your best ally.

If your bag is light-colored, be careful not to wear dark clothes, as this could rub off on the leather of your bag.

We advise you to ask your local drugstore or shoemaker for advice on the best products to use.

And remember to store your handbag as often as possible in its Marie Martens dust bag, in a well-ventilated room and away from light.

In short: take care of your Marie Martens bag and it will stay with you longer, which is good news for you and for the planet! See life in pink, with a maximum of feel good guaranteed ✨
