Default What Brand Oil Do You Use On Your Leather Jackets ?

This stuff is a top of the line product. It’s fast and easy to apply once a year and it goes a long way compared to the Mink paste .
But there might be others that are your favorites for maintaining your leathers . So what brand leather oil are you putting on your leather jackets, pants or even boots ?

I love Doc Bailey’s. It’s not oily or smelly. It makes Black Leather look new, and waterproofs it.

On lighter color leathers like brown or grey I use Lexol.

Million threads in a milltion different types of forums on this. I been using obenhauffs, last time bought it in 1/2 gallon to save money. Though not sure if used that jug yet. Ha. I use oil, not the hard stuff. I'll sometimes spray down boots or even jeans with camp dry if I know it will be raining.

+1 On Doc Bailey's. I used it on my 12 year old badly faded Fox Creek jacket. It looks and feels brand new!

Lexol then a good rub down with a decent saddle soap every spring or after a hard rainy road trip. Been doing just fine for more years than a lot been riding.

Only you are saying that, many use as noted above and i have some. You’re not hip and in the know…much better than some chemicals.

I use Langlitz leather dressing since it came with the jacket. But it is really good stuff. I also like Bick 4. Lexol is pretty good too. I like a leather dressing for heavy black leather.
