Where to Keep Spare Falls?

Post by Castor Dioscuri »

So I've been keeping my leather falls from 2008 in a ziplock container, and it only just occurred to me after all these years that that may not be such a hot idea. After all, doesn't leather breathe? Shouldn't the same rule that applies to leather jackets also apply to leather falls?

So my question is two part. I can't discern any damage to the falls after 7 years in an air-tight ziplock container, but do you think I should junk it anyway? Is the damage imperceptible but there anyway?

And secondly, should we just store falls by chucking them in a whip bag? How do you guys store your spare falls?
