Material Care Guide

Last updated: August 25, 2026

A well-cared-for bag lasts for years. JINMAN bags are made from genuine leather, premium vegan (PU) leather, and canvas — each needs slightly different care. Find your material below.

1. Genuine Leather

• Clean: Wipe with a soft dry or lightly damp cloth. For dirt, use a pH-neutral leather cleaner.
• Condition: Apply a leather balm or conditioner every 2–3 months to prevent drying and cracking.
• Dry: Air-dry away from direct heat and sunlight. Never use a hairdryer or radiator.
• Avoid: Soaking, harsh detergents, and prolonged rain. If it gets wet, blot (don't rub) and dry naturally.

2. Vegan (PU) Leather

• Clean: Wipe with a damp cloth and a drop of mild soap. PU is water-resistant and easy to maintain.
• Dry: Pat dry with a soft towel; no conditioning needed.
• Avoid: Machine washing, submerging, and alcohol-based wipes that can dull the surface.

3. Canvas

• Clean: Spot-clean with a soft brush and mild soapy water. For deeper cleaning, hand-wash gently and air-dry.
• Dry: Reshape while damp and dry flat, away from direct sun to prevent fading.
• Avoid: Bleach and tumble dryers.

4. Stain First Aid

Stain	What to do
Ink (leather)	Dab with a cotton swab of rubbing alcohol, then condition.
Oil / grease	Blot with cornstarch or talcum powder; leave overnight, then brush off.
Water marks (leather)	Lightly wipe the whole panel with a damp cloth, then condition evenly.
General dirt	Mild soap + damp cloth; dry immediately.

5. Smart Storage

• Keep bags upright in a dust bag or pillowcase.
• Stuff the interior with tissue paper or a soft cloth to hold the shape.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Avoid hanging heavy bags by their straps for long periods.
