Leather Jacket Care Tips — Street‑Savvy Maintenance from Leather360

A leather coat serves as a kind of armor in addition to being an article of clothing. Treat it right, and it sticks with you through late‑night rides, rainy gigs, and rooftop sunsets. Here’s the no‑fluff maintenance game plan straight from the workbenches at Leather360:

Hang Like a Pro

Slip the jacket onto a broad‑shoulder hanger, zip it, and let gravity smooth the creases. Wire hangers? Instant collar‑ruiners—ditch ’em.

 Dust‑Off Drill

Once a week, sweep the surface with a microfiber cloth. Tiny grit is enemy #1 for that buttery grain.

Moisture Check

Use a coin-sized dab of pH-balanced leather conditioner on the hide every 30 days. Massage lightly; over‑greasing suffocates the pores.

Speedy Spot Fix

Drizzle or coffee splash? Dab—don’t scrub—with a damp lint‑free rag. For oil, tap on unscented talc; shake it off next morning.

Rain Recovery

Soaked jacket? Lay flat on a towel far from heaters, reshape sleeves, and air‑dry. Heat guns turn premium hide into stiff cardboard.

Sweat‑Guard Lining

Flip the jacket inside out, mist the lining with a mild fabric‑safe cleanser, wipe, and air it open. Salt rings vanish before they stain.

Scent Reset

Hang the piece outdoors under shade. Funk still lingers? Our in‑house ozone treatment at Leather360 nukes smoke and gym‑day odors.

Water Shield

Before the next storm ride, mist the exterior with a breathable water‑repellent spray—never silicone sealant, which clogs leather pores.

 Seasonal Storage

Packing it away? Stuff sleeves with acid‑free tissue, zip closed, and slip into a breathable cotton garment bag. Plastic traps mildew.

 Annual Spa

Book a deep‑clean service at Leather360—professional re‑conditioning, color refresh with leather balm, and a final UV‑block finish.
