Men's Leather

It depends on the material. Lambskin and goat are soft from the first wear and settle within days. A mid-weight cowhide eases over four to six weeks of regular wear. A heavy hide can take a full season, softening first at the elbows, the shoulders and the hem, where it flexes most. Vegan leather is usually polyurethane over a fabric backing, so it has no fibre to stretch: it feels the same on day one and on day two hundred, and never moulds to you. Nothing safely speeds a hide up either, and heat or oil will darken and weaken it. With hide, buy snug through the shoulders, since the body relaxes with wear and the shoulder seam does not. With a vegan finish, buy the fit you want to keep.

Light rain does no harm to a finished hide or a vegan polyurethane surface, since both shed it. Blot the piece dry with a cloth, hang it at room temperature and let it dry slowly; a radiator or a hairdryer will stiffen and crack a hide and can lift a coated surface off its backing. Suede and nubuck are the exception, as the open nap drinks water and marks, and they want a spray protector before winter. Conditioner is for hide only and does nothing for a vegan finish. Winter road salt leaves white tidelines on either, so lift them with a barely damp cloth while they are fresh rather than letting them dry in.
