Cork is renowned for its excellent moisture resistance and oxidation resistance, which helps prevent rotting and mold growth. This is why cork is commonly used in high-humidity environments.
With proper care, cork products can last several years. However, that being said, it is still a natural material, which means that, like all natural materials, it will gradually break down over time. Cork will also soften and show signs of use over time, especially along the edges and corners of straps.
To extend the lifespan of cork products, we recommend keeping them clean, avoiding excessive friction, and storing them in a dry place when not in use.
