Take Care of Your Leather with Glove Lotion from The Craftsman's Works
At The Craftsman's Works, we take pride in caring for your gloves, mitts, and leather products. Our Glove Lotion is a perfect example of this commitment. Handmade with safe, all-natural ingredients here in the USA, Glove Lotion is a rich, powerful conditioner that’s easy to apply and absorbs quickly. It’s designed to restore, condition, and protect your leather, making it the ideal choice for keeping your leather gear in top shape.
But Glove Lotion isn’t just for gloves! It’s perfect for almost any leather item—whether it's leather furniture, purses, handbags, wallets, or even boots. If it’s made of leather, Glove Lotion is here to help it last longer and look better.
How to Use Glove Lotion
- Clean your leather thoroughly to remove dirt, buildup, and other surface contaminants. Ensure the leather is completely dry before applying.
- Apply a small amount of Glove Lotion to a lint-free cloth or your fingers. Rub it into the leather in circular motions until it’s fully coated.
- Once absorbed, buff the leather with a dry cloth to remove any excess.
- Let it dry for an hour. If needed, apply more lotion, stopping when the leather no longer absorbs the conditioner. Wipe away any excess, then let it cure for 24 hours.
Best Practices and Tips for Using Glove Lotion
- Clean and dry leather thoroughly before conditioning to get the best results.
- Apply by hand if you prefer—your body heat will slightly melt the lotion, helping it absorb deeper into the leather.
- For dry, cracked, or faded leather that hasn’t been treated in a while, 2-5 applications may be necessary for full restoration. For newer or well-maintained leather, 1-3 applications should suffice.
- Frequency of use: Apply as often as once a month or as seldom as once or twice a year, depending on exposure to the elements and overall wear.
- Regular conditioning is a preventative measure, helping leather stay functional and last much longer.
- Darkening may occur with medium to light-colored leather, but it will lessen over time. For dark-colored leathers, it’s usually barely noticeable. Always test a small, hidden area first if you’re concerned about darkening.
- Storage is key: Keep leather items in a dark, dry place, and avoid direct sunlight, moisture, and damaging substances like salt.
- Glove Lotion is not intended for use on nubuck, suede, or other non-smooth leathers, as it requires more expertise for proper conditioning.
All ingredients are food-grade, natural, and safe for use around children and pets. If ingested, there’s no danger to kids or pets. We use seed oils due to their low allergenic risk, rather than nut or tree oils.
Why Use Glove Lotion?
Conditioning leather with Glove Lotion introduces natural oils, fats, and waxes deep into the fibers, offering a range of benefits that help your leather last longer and look better:
- Restore leather: Minor scratches, fading, and other damage are often healed with proper conditioning. The animal fats in Glove Lotion help nourish the leather, restoring it to its original state.
- Waterproof leather: The triple-filtered beeswax binds deeply with leather fibers, offering excellent waterproofing that protects against light to moderate liquid damage.
- Protect leather: Properly conditioned leather can withstand liquids, spills, sunlight, abrasions, scratches, and general wear and tear. Regular conditioning keeps leather items resilient and ready for anything.
- Enhance leather’s appearance: Well-conditioned leather can be buffed to a gorgeous finish, building a stunning patina over time and developing the unique character leather items are known for.
At The Craftsman's Works, we believe in the power of natural care for your leather gear. With Glove Lotion, you can restore, condition, and protect your leather items, giving them the love they deserve. Whether it's a well-worn glove, a pair of boots, or your favorite leather furniture, Glove Lotion will help keep them looking great and lasting longer.
