    Cleaning and caring for leather suits – what you should bear in mind<\/h2>\n\n

    Your suit should be clean before you use leather care. The best way to remove coarse dirt is with a soft, damp cloth. For insect remains, road dirt, or traces of oil, mild soap or a special leather suit cleaner<\/a> will help. Make sure you never use too much water, leather prefers it dry.<\/p>\n\n

    Home remedies such as curd soap, washing-up liquid or a splash of vinegar water work well for light soiling. They are inexpensive and do not damage the material. It is important that you wipe everything with a clean, damp cloth and then leave to dry thoroughly. No hair dryer, no heating, no direct sunlight, otherwise the leather will become brittle. <\/p>\n\n

    After drying, it’s time for care: leather grease, balm, or special care products<\/a> keep the material supple and prevent cracks. If you ride regularly, you should care for your leather suit once a month. Before winter<\/a>, we recommend thorough leather care with waterproofing so that the suit is protected over the cold season. <\/p>\n\n
