Leather Care

1. Cleaning

Before cleaning, check the care label on your jacket for specific instructions.
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away any surface dirt or dust.
For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner that is specifically designed for your type of leather (e.g., cowhide, lambskin, suede, or nubuck). Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Gently apply the cleaner using a soft cloth or sponge, working it into the leather in a circular motion.
Wipe away excess cleaner with a clean, damp cloth.
Allow the jacket to air dry naturally; avoid using direct heat sources like hairdryers or radiators.

Leather can dry out and lose its natural oils over time, leading to cracks and stiffness. Conditioning helps restore these oils and keeps the leather supple.
Use a leather conditioner or cream that is appropriate for your type of leather.
Apply a small amount of conditioner to a clean, soft cloth and rub it into the leather in a circular motion. Pay extra attention to areas that may be more exposed to wear and tear.
Allow the conditioner to be absorbed by the leather for a few hours or as directed on the product label.
Wipe off any excess conditioner with a clean, dry cloth.

To prevent water and stain damage, consider applying a leather protector or water repellent spray. Be sure to choose a product suitable for your type of leather.
Spray the protector evenly on the jacket, holding the can about 6-8 inches away. Allow it to dry completely before wearing.

When not wearing your leather jacket, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Use a padded hanger to maintain the jacket’s shape, and avoid hanging it in a crowded closet where it may become creased or pressed against other items.
If you need to store your jacket for an extended period, consider placing it in a breathable garment bag.
