nubuck leather

Nubuck leather is similar to suede. It is a high-quality and elegant type of leather that impresses with its velvety, soft surface. Nubuck leather is created by sanding the top layer of smooth leather, which creates a fine, velvety structure. It is very sensitive to dirt and stains, but is valued for its luxurious look and feel.

Care of nubuck leather

Nubuck leather needs special care to maintain its velvety surface:

• Regular cleaning : Use Elami Cleaner 01 together with a special nubuck brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Cleaner 01 is gentle and cleans thoroughly without damaging the delicate, velvety surface of the nubuck leather. Regular cleaning helps to keep the leather clean and in good condition.

• Lubrication : Although nubuck leather is more delicate than other types of leather, it still needs moisturizing. Elami Lubricator 02 has been specially developed to nourish nubuck without losing its velvety texture. Avoid conventional fats and creams that could make the leather shiny and sticky. Lubricator 02 provides suppleness and protection against drying out without affecting the velvety look.

• Stain removal : For small stains, it is advisable to act immediately. Use a nubuck eraser or a special brush to carefully remove stains. For deeper stains, Elami Cleaner 01 can help without damaging the delicate structure.

• Avoid direct sunlight : Nubuck leather is very susceptible to fading from direct sunlight, so store it in a cool, dry place when not in use to avoid color changes.

Additional tips:

Protection from moisture: Avoid contact with water as nubuck leather is prone to staining. If it does get wet, let it air dry, but never directly under heat sources.
