I recently received my pair of linen and leather spectators. I am wondering how best to care for them. I have polished the leather with care not to get any on the linen. But are there any special ways to go about polishing? Secondly, how do you care for the linen? I am sure the cream color will get dirty over time.

Your help is appreciated.

You can try to use a very low tack scotch tape (masking tape) to put over the linen, this will stop the polish from marking the linen, then slowly peal it off after you have finished, try not to press the tape too hard on the linen when putting it on.

In regards to looking after the linen, I am afriad you will just have to be very careful.

Kind regards

Tony
