How to Clean a Leather Jacket
For dry dirt or dust, use a clean soft cotton cloth or camel’s hair brush to gently dust off or remove dust or dirt. Use natural fibers only to clean your real leather as synthetics can damage the jacket.
Wet dirt requires more attention. Depending on how wet the motorcycle leather jacket with armor is, you may just be able to carefully wipe off the wet dirt with a clean cotton cloth and let your jacket finish drying. Jacket wet all over? Hang on a wide well-padded clothes hanger out of direct sunlight and away from heat.
Keep turning your cloth to use the dry areas. If your jacket is still damp, do not put your leather jacket in the dryer to dry! Just hang as suggested above. Never never never put your jacket in the washing machine or immerse it in water!
