Weiman's Leather Wipes, quick and simple. Pick them up at the grocery store.

If the chaps and jacket get extremely dirty with bugs I'll go over them with mild soap and water. Then condition them with the leather wipes.

I learned the hard way, not to clean a spot...big old bug splatter...with Windex. It takes the dye right off. But some liquid shoe polish fixed it.
