Care
How do I clean Rugged Twill luggage?
Wipe or brush away surface soil or buildup with a damp cloth or scrub brush. If necessary, use cold water to loosen up any caked mud or dirt.
We advise against spot cleaning with soap and water, as it may result in a loss of water repellency or color in that spot. If it is absolutely necessary to spot clean Rugged Twill, you may need to re-wax that spot to restore the water repellency after it dries.
DO NOT professionally dry clean Rugged Twill. Dry cleaning solutions destroy the Oil Finish, effectively turning Oil Finish fabrics into Dry Finish fabrics. If Rugged Twill is dry cleaned, it will need to be re-waxed to restore its water repellency.
DO NOT machine wash Rugged Twill. Machine washing breaks down the Oil Finish, and sometimes causes the fabric to shrink. Most importantly, machine washing will not soften Rugged Twill. In fact, it may make the fabric stiffer than before.
Do I need to re-wax my Rugged Twill luggage?
You shouldn't need to re-wax your Rugged Twill luggage right away. It is ready to use. However, over time, and with regular use, the Oil Finish water repellency may weaken, especially in areas of high wear or repeated flexing. One can of our Style 1-A Original Oil Finish Wax is enough to touch up isolated areas of high wear or flexing, but re-waxing an entire piece of luggage usually requires several cans of wax. See Style 1 and 1-A for detailed instructions.
Genuine Bridle Leather: Clean with saddle soap. Some customers apply our Style 2-A Boot Oil Finish to keep leather moisturized. See care instructions for Genuine Bridle Leather.

Can I use your Style 2-A Boot Oil finish on Genuine Bridle Leather?
Our Boot Oil Finish is a petroleum-based treatment designed for our boots, which are made with oil-tanned leather. By comparison, our bridle leather is vegetable tanned, not oil tanned.
