Products & Leather

Yes. All Brown Bear products are crafted from 100% genuine full-grain leather. We do not use PU, bonded leather, or synthetic substitutes. Our leather is sourced and processed by our parent company, Geekay International — 40+ years of leather manufacturing heritage.

Leather Care

Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dust. For deeper cleaning, use a pH-neutral leather cleaner. Never use soap, alcohol, or household cleaners — they strip the leather's natural oils.
Pat dry immediately with a soft cloth — never rub. Allow to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Once dry, apply a leather conditioner to restore moisture. Never use a hair dryer.
Yes — and that's a feature, not a flaw. Full-grain leather naturally darkens and develops a unique patina over time. This is the mark of genuine quality leather and is one of the reasons Brown Bear goods become more beautiful with age.
