MY CONTRIBUTION:
" Just an " FYI " for anyone using " Leather Bags " .
I just read an article , which was focused, on women's Style & " Handbags "..
However,.. " Leather is Leather " .

"... Your Favorite Handbag which you likely bring everywhere, has more bacteria on its handle than the average toilet flush. Yes, you read that correctly! A study published by a UK hygiene services company brings to light the shocking (and disgusting) truth about handbag hygiene...."
" ... It was discovered that leather provides the perfect conditions for the growth and spreading of bacteria, because of its spongy texture. Great, right? On the plus side, however, leather is pretty easy to clean - and regularly wiping down your bags is a huge help..."
I just disinfected my entire " Satchel & Shoulder Strap ", with 91% Alcohol ( Spray Bottle ) & wiped it down with a a few paper towels.
I'll have to remember to do this, on a regular routine.

Leather Cleaning & Treatment
" Hey everyone,
I disinfected/cleaned my " Satchel ". HMMM, as an afterthought, I decided to treat the leather with some "Chamberlains Leather Milk"
(endorsed by Saddleback).
There were some fairly deep scuff, scratches, & I wasn't satisfied with the overall results.
So, I decided to use a thicker conditioner; " Skidmore's ". ......."
