Tips to Clean Your Leather Clothing

If you own any leather products such as jackets, dresses, vests, boots, and bags made of natural leather, it is important to clean them before using them in the winter season.

Here are some tips to clean and get rid of any unpleasant odors from your leather items below:

Tip no 1: Put the linseed oil on the leather using a cloth, and rub it in until it is fully absorbed. In fact, this is an effective way to care for leather clothes and other leather items.

Tip no 2: Try shoe polish: This is the oldest and best way to care for leather. You can use liquid shoe polish on shoes, coats, and bags. If you are cleaning natural leather, buy shoe polish that contains carnauba wax and other natural ingredients. For boots and regular shoes, canned polish can be used.

Tip no 3: Use specialized leather care products: You can buy leather care products from a household appliances store. They are available in the form of sprays, which remove odors, and help restore luster to the leather.

Tip no 4: To get rid of unpleasant smells, wrap the leather product with newspaper or wrapping paper. The pores in the newspaper or wrapping paper will absorb any unpleasant odors from the leather.
