Frequently Asked Questions
Q.
Is it waterproof?
Q.
Is it waterproof?
A.
Yes and no. NUVI Releaf material is 100% natural and doesn't come with a gore-tex lining nor a chemical layer to make it 100% waterproof. Like leather, it can be treated with natural leather care products for improved water repellency. Furthermore, if you'd like to take it one step further, we can customise your material order for increased water-resistance.
