What if my strap gets wet?

Leather is not waterproof, though a splash of water here and there should not hurt it.  If you plan on getting your strap wet regularly, you can look for straps made by waterproof materials, such as canvas, oil tanned, or other water-resistant materials. Besides, you can also use a leather lotion or oil to maintain the oils of the leather. Be sure to spot test on the back of the strap to see how the lotion will effect the color of the strap. It usually darkens it.
