So I got annihilated in the down pour last weekend, and am wondering how you clean or look after your leathers after being in wet conditions, and general maintenance or cleaning you do to remove body odour
KEEPIN'IT REAL ON THE WESS SIDE

For leather I use stuff called Zorbel. Lanolin based I think and does a good job. You can get it from most shoe places.

For sweaty stinkiness i hang them outside in the shade on a nice warm day.
