Leather care
Clean gently with mild soap and a clean, damp, non-abrasive cloth or sponge, then wipe away soap residue and allow the gloves to dry naturally. Helstons recommends regular use of a suitable neutral or black nourishing leather cream. Avoid abrasive surfaces, alcohol-based or oily products, prolonged contact with water and prolonged sunlight. Do not machine wash, tumble dry or iron.
