How to Care Your Jackets

HOW TO CARE FOR LEATHER PRODUCTS

Keep your leather products free from dust by storing in a protective cloth bag.
Do not store in a plastic bag as leather needs to "breath"
Should the product accumulate some dust or debris just wipe with a clean, damp (not wet) cloth.
Never use any soap or detergent to clean the product.
Do not store in direct sunlight or under sharp artificial light.
Avoid storing in a damp closet, environment should be cool but dry.
Do not allow cosmetics, perfumes or hand creams to come in contact with the leather.
Any accidental oil stains should immediately be treated with talcum powder which should absorb the oil and draw most of it out of the product.
Do not over fill your product as leather will stretch, but will not return to its original shape.
Avoid using metal hanger for hanging leather jackets.
Overfilling also puts stress on the stitching and will cause damage in the long term.
Should your product get wet, do not dry with heat. Let the product dry slowly under natural circumstances.

VERY IMPORTANT - Any genuine leather product will age with time. In other words it will change color and get a character of its own during

normal use. Take care of your Leather product and it will last a life time.

Leather jackets should only cleaned when needed. A jacket with typical wear only needs to be cleaned once a year.
Fill a bucket with warm water and add a small amount of mild soap or detergent.
Mix well.
Moisten the sponge or soft cloth with the soapy water.
Gently wipe it over the surface of the jacket. Do not scrub the coat.
To rinse, moisten a sponge or soft cloth with plain water and wipe the entire coat to remove any soap residue.
Wipe or blot the coat with a dry sponge or cloth to remove any excess moisture.
Hang the coat to dry.
Once dry, apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather soft and flexible. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application.
Once dry, the coat is ready to be worn or stored until the following year.
