I mean the ones you ride in not the bedroom variety although I suppose you could ride in your bedroom ones if you were so inclined....
How are you supposed to care for leathers?
What should I avoid putting on them.
What products/recommendations give the best results. I heard you don't dubbin them because it eats the stitching.

I wiped my jacket with soapy water once. Bugs are like bling for leather jackets. Chopper says "Harden the f*** up Australia"

Anything with Lanoline in it will rot the stitching.
The stuff that Maggot is talking about is the best stuff you can get for leather. I have a saddle that is 10 years old and that is all that I have used on it, it looks like brand new.

fragg my dubbin can is over half empty. shuda got the dainese leather care instead.
I use a product made by maguires. Its in a black bottle and is used for seats and leatherwork in cars. Its worked really well on all my leathers.
+ 1 on the Renapur conditioner, I've been using it for about 2 years and my leathers are like new (and virtually waterproof too), it softens them as well. You can use it on any leather product (I also use it on my Sidi boots ).

Sometimes I get rained on....
Dont use Dubbin!
I use pure bees wax and you will find any good product has bees wax in it!

Dubbin is evil?
I have had a leather jacket for 20 years and only used dubbin on it and the stiching is still fine, the lining has worn out and my gut is in baby mode (beer and chips) so she is a bit tight so I don't where her any more and I still use dubbin on my new leathers
Note: i like riding in the rain so dubbin keep you dryish
The Leather dressing stuff made by R.M. Williams works terrific as well.
