Join us for this fabulous workshop with Mark, the Repair Cafe leather expert, where you will learn about the best natural products to care for and condition your leather goods, and how frequently you should do it.
· Is it leather or “pleather”?
· How to clean leather
· How to condition leather
· Waterproofing
· What should you have in your shoe care kit?
· Ethical leather
Feel free to bring along an item for specific advice. If there is time we will have a DIY repair session and brainstorm how to fix common problems like loose buckles on bags and fraying seams on jackets. Mark will have some leather tools on hand and can demonstrate how to use them. Bring your questions and curiosity for this fun and educational session.
