How to clean leather wallet

You can clean your leather furniture using a simple cleaning solution of 50/50 vinegar and water. Use a microfiber cloth to apply the solution, rubbing the leather in a circular motion to lift the dirt out of the natural fibers.

Hand washing the wallet is the only recommend cleaning method. Tossing your wallet into the washing machine – even if the machine setting is on delicate – can damage the wallet. The constant motion inside the washing machine can break down the leather.

Make sure your leather wallet is empty before doing any touching up. For regular spot checks to remove surface dust and lint, gently wipe it with a damp, soft cloth until everything is gone. If your wallet gets wet, dab it to remove moisture as soon as you can, before it absorbs into the leather.

Regular maintenance cleaning:

Olive oil + white vinegar: shake together in a spray bottle, lightly mist leather bag, and wipe clean with a dry cloth. Moisturizing soap: rub a damp cloth over a bar of moisturizing soap (like Dove), then bring to lather on the surface of your leather bag. Wipe/buff clean.

Make Your Own Solution. The best way to clean a leather couch and the entire surface, mix 2 parts white vinegar with 1 part olive oil in a spray bottle and shake well. (You can also add a few drops of fragrant essential oils to cut the vinegar smell).
