How to Maintain a Leather Jacket.

My leather jacket has white stains,
what to do?

  • Often times a soft hairbrush or slightly wet cloth can remove the white substance.
  • Apply a good leather conditioner and then gently wipe with a dry cloth to remove the whiteness.
  • If your leather jacket has gotten a little dirty, lost some of its color, or developed cracks, a professional leather cleaning service can restore its vibrancy and repair the damage so you can keep wearing your leather jacket for years to come.

My leather jacket has wrinkles,
how do I remove it?

  • Rub the wrinkled area gently with your hands to smooth out the wrinkles.
  • Apply leather conditioning products to keep it moisturized and free from dryness.
  • Keep your jacket away from heat. Heat will dry out and cause leather to become brittle and crack. Never lay your jacket on or near a radiator or heating vent, and never iron or steam it yourself.

What if your new leather jacket has a smell?

  • Allow a few hours after taking the jacket out of the package for the smell to go away naturally
  • Air it out by hanging in a well-ventilated area. Avoid hanging it under direct sunlight.

What to do if you got the wrong size jacket?

  • If your jacket is slightly big or loose, you can get it altered by your local tailor.
  • Layering inside with a hoodie, if you are returning for exchange, please make sure the jacket is unused and properly packed in its original condition with all tags attached. Our Returns Department inspect each jacket very carefully.

To make sure your leather jacket stays original, you must clean and take care of it.
Here are tips on how to handle your new jacket the right way.

  • Hang the jacket on a sturdy and durable hanger.
  • Place the jacket on a table or a flat surface. Straighten the arms and make sure there aren't any folds. Use your hands to stretch out the wrinkled parts of the jacket.
  • Always hang it in the closet with enough breathing space.
  • Don't leave your leather jacket in the closet forever. Every few weeks, dust off and wear your favorite piece to make sure it keeps looking new.
