Proper care and maintenance are essential to preserve the longevity and performance of your Rawhide Leather Rope. Follow these simple guidelines to keep your rope in top condition:

1. Condition Regularly
Apply a light coat of rawhide cream or conditioner to the rope as needed. Gently work the product into the braiding using clean hands or a soft cloth. Quality rawhide conditioners can be found at your local tack store or through online retailers such as Amazon.

2. Clean After Each Use
After every use, remove loose dirt and buildup with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents, as they can damage the rawhide fibers.

3. Avoid Water Exposure
Do not soak your rawhide rope in water or allow it to become completely dried out. Excessive moisture or dryness can compromise the rope’s integrity and flexibility.

4. Dry Naturally
If your rope becomes damp, allow it to air dry slowly in a well-ventilated area—away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can cause the rawhide to crack or become brittle.

5. Store Properly
When not in use, store your Rawhide Leather Rope in a cool, dry place, free from moisture, direct sunlight, and pests such as rodents. Hanging the rope loosely can also help maintain its shape.

By following these care instructions, you’ll extend the life of your Rawhide Leather Rope and ensure it performs reliably for years to come.
