    Hey guys was looking at a leather conditioner for my leather jacket. It is new(maybe a year old and in good condition), just wanted to keep it conditioned. I did search and read the threads here so I had a Q.



    Has anyone used Z-10 on thier jackets? I know it is great on leather seats and all. Or should I get a leather jacket specific conditioner? Don`t know if Zaino has harsh cleaners, but from what I have read it does not have detergents or anything?



    If I should not get the Zaino, any brands/links for a jacket conditioner?



    Thanks!

    I have used Apple leather conditioner for years on my leather jackets any my wifes Coach purses. I worked in a luggage and leather goods store in school and this was what they used to condition the high end stuff. It looks and feels like the Coach brand conditioner but at half the price. Burrlington coat factory sells it.

    Yes... I`ve used Z10 on my leather jacket. Renews the "new leather" smell, softness, hides scratches. Works great. Usually twice per winter season.

    Ok thanks for your input guys! Which one do you think would be a "better" choice so to say? The jacket is nice and soft now, but I noticed around the collar(where it touches the neck?), it is slightly grey/white tho I barely wear it.



    Would the apple conditioner fix this or would Zaino?



    Thanks again guys!

    My jacket has done the same thing around the collar. Basically the oils from your skin and hair on your neck have removed the finish from the leather.



    The Z-10 has temporarily fixed the problem, but it keeps coming back from the constant friction.

    The Apple stuff would make scratches less notacable in leather, and remove most all marks.
