How Can You Wash Leather Jackets

How can you wash leather jackets the safe way? Do not machine wash. Spot clean, air dry, and condition. Here is the simple routine.

Skip the Machine

Water, heat, and spin can warp leather. It may crack or lose shape.

The Safe Method

1. Dust the jacket with a dry cloth.
2. Mix a few drops of mild soap in water.
3. Dab stains with a damp (not wet) cloth.
4. Wipe with plain water. Air dry.
5. Finish with a light conditioner.

Odor Fix

Air the jacket on a wide hanger. Use a garment bag with vents. Avoid perfume sprays on the leather.
