Can I wear a leather jacket in the rain?
+
Whilst mild rain is perfectly okay and wouldn't cause any or much damage to your leather jacket, the leather should not be exposed to significant amounts of moisture over a prolonged length of time.
In case, the leather may come into contact with water or exposed to rain, you should quickly wipe it off and allow it to dry by hanging the garment in a cool & dry place, far from direct sunlight and heat sources.
What else should I do for the care of my leather garment?

Our leather jackets are not water-resistant by default and exposure to water and significant amounts of moisture can make your jacket brittle and dry.
If you choose, you can apply a water-resistant product to your garment, following the instructions of the manufacturer; however, AU LeatherX does not take any responsibility for any damage caused by the use of such products.
It is advisable to keep your jacket clean from dust and dirt, and condition it once or twice a year to maintain the new looks of the leather, as well as keeping it strong and providing it with some protection from water damage.
We also recommend you to avoid dry cleaning, machine washing, tumble drying, using bleach, detergents and chemical soaps, ironing and force drying your leather garment. Additionally protect your leather garment from direct sunlight, rain, humidity, alcohol, oil, grease, and other abrasive products and cleaners with caustic ingredients.
