A handmade leather jacket is a long-term investment. In order to get the most out of your jacket, you need to take proper care of it – and that includes storing it properly when you're not wearing it.
Aero's high-quality leather jackets are extremely durable, and with a little bit of care, they'll last a lifetime. You don't have to worry too much about damaging your Aero jacket by storing it incorrectly, but there are a few key considerations that you should bear in mind.
For instance, leaving your jacket in a spot where it's exposed to direct sunlight may cause the leather to become discoloured or dry out. You should also avoid storing your leather jacket in damp places where mildew may grow. Because we only use natural fibres in our linings (like wool), our jacket’s linings may be susceptible to moths when stored for a long time.
