VALENTINO BAGS made of leather?

The bags from the Italian label are mostly made of high-quality synthetic leather. Thus, the brand specializes in bags made from fine synthetic materials. This material is especially characterized by its various and diverse processing methods, resulting in varied looks. Furthermore, it is similar to genuine leather in being resistant to dirt and very durable. Therefore, it is a good alternative to animal leather.

History

In 1952, Mario Valentino founded the current brand Valentino Bags in Naples and initially designed shoes. In doing so, he followed in the footsteps of his father, who was already considered a famous shoemaker in the 1920s and supplied much of the high society. However, Mario's products differed greatly from those of his father, as he experimented early on with extravagant designs and unusual shapes. It was not until the mid-1960s that the designer expanded his range to include bags, which from then on became a fixed part of the brand's assortment.

Among the most famous Valentino Bags enthusiasts are Naomi Campbell, Jacky Kennedy, and Liz Taylor, who have been fans since the 1970s.

How do I care for my Valentino Bag?

You may know how to properly care for leather bags but have no experience with vegan leather? Surfaces of vegan materials are generally very easy to maintain. Here we have compiled some tips and care instructions for you:

• Stains and dirt can first be gently tapped off before you use a damp cloth or a baby wipe in the next step. Clean your bag in circular motions, dry the bag with a clean cloth, and let the surface air dry.
• Important: Do not use care products containing fats or alcohol, as these damage the material and leave stubborn stains.
• Have you discovered stronger and more stubborn stains on your bag? In that case, you can carefully remove the stains with mild detergent. Dissolve the detergent in warm water and moisten a cloth with it. Then gently and lightly rub the surface before wiping off the residue with a clean, damp cloth. Let the bag dry sufficiently in fresh air.
• Waterproofing the bag is not necessary, as the materials themselves are water-repellent. Only zippers can be waterproofed for more reliable protection.
• Finally, important: Never use a hairdryer or place the bag in direct sunlight, as this could damage the material.
