6-step process

TREAT IT IN ORDER — KEEP THE MOULD FROM COMING BACK

Never apply conditioner while dust and mould remain. Brush clean first, wash properly, re-condition, then air-dry and buff to finish.

1

Brush off dust and dry mould

Use horsehair brush sweep dust and dry mould off the surface, creases and stitching.

2

Clean the surface with leather soap

Use leather cleaning soap combined with round-head brush to clean mouldy areas and deep-set grime.

3

Condition and wipe again with Wren's Lotion

Gently wipe with Wren's Leather Lotion for deeper cleansing, helping restore softness and moisture after mould treatment.

4

Let dry and buff again

Let the item air-dry somewhere ventilated, then buff with horsehair brush.

5

You can further condition with a leather conditioner

Leather tends to be drier after mould treatment, so you can add leather conditioning cream or a deep conditioner.

6

Let dry and give a final buff

After conditioning, let dry and brush again for an even, clean, softer surface with a natural sheen.

Mouldy leather: what's the right way to treat it?

Hanoi's 75–85% humidity means shoes, bags and jackets mould very easily when stored unused for long periods. The right treatment sequence: wipe dry → deep-clean with a specialty solution → condition to restore → guard against damp in storage. Never dry in harsh sun or wipe with alcohol/vinegar — the leather will crack and the color will bleed.

This page carries products for that exact process, most notably Combo 32M for mouldy leather (1,160,000₫) and Combo 37 for leather jackets (1,500,000₫). For heavy, deep-set mould, use Gazano's deep-cleaning service rather than treating it yourself.
