...and I always keep my handbags covered. I recommend keeping your handbag stored in the original dust bag it came with. Although some leathers are more durable than others, leaving your bag on the floor will increase the risk of corner wear - your bag deserves a seat too! Handbags are also susceptible to rain damage; but brands like Hermès provide a rain coat with various models. I get many questions on how to clean leather handbags appropriately, but I'd only recommend doing this when it is totally necessary to prevent drying out the leather. I use alcohol- and fragrance-free antibacterial wipes made for leather.
