Q: How should I care for a pony hair bag?
A: Pony hair should be handled gently. Avoid heavy friction, rough surfaces and prolonged exposure to moisture. If needed, lightly wipe or softly brush in the direction of the hair, and store the bag in a dust bag when not in use. Gentle use and proper storage help preserve the finish over time.

Q: Does pony hair show wear over time?
A: As with most hair-on leather finishes, pony hair can show wear in high-contact areas over time, especially if rubbed frequently against clothing or hard surfaces. This is normal for the material and part of why many collectors prefer to rotate pony hair bags rather than use them every day.
