How to clean a saddle leather handbag?

[TinkOhio]

I have a bag that I love, but it's starting to look a little dingy. Is there any way to clean it, or is it time to look for another?


TIA for any help!

Thanks for the tips. I do have leather bag cleaning cloths, but I'm afraid to use it on this bag. It's leather is very thick, but it does not have a sheen. Think of the old style Dooney leather bags, but with less sheen. Will the products ruin this type of leather?

Thanks so much for your help!

King Ranch Saddle Shop makes conditioner that is good for their products. I am betting it would work on yours. It is available on their website. We used it several times to bring back the leather interior in trucks with their interiors.

It seems you got no cleaning and care instructions from the retailer which provided you with the bag. Could you contact them now?
