Best Ways to Clean and Maintain Leather Jackets

Leather Care Essentials

A high-quality leather jacket can last a lifetime if you follow these simple maintenance steps.

1. Keep it Dry

If your jacket gets wet, hang it on a padded hanger at room temperature. Never use a hair dryer or heater, as direct heat will cause the leather to crack.

2. Cleaning Stains

Use a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild soap for surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a specialized leather cleaner. Always test a small, hidden area first.

3. Condition Regularly

Leather is skin and needs moisture. Apply a leather conditioner every 6–12 months to keep it supple and prevent it from becoming brittle.
