   welcome to my world....
   
   
   
   its not hard to keep clean, but then again i dont use the car every day (at all at the moment/through the winter). just beware of poppers/studs on jeans and you'll be fine. i have been known to make my passenger sit on a towel and keep a towel in the car just for that reason tbh

    I use the conditioner that James has given you the link above to and i can vouch this is really good stuff.
    
    Jeans arnt to bad, its the the studs from belts and trouser rear pockets that are more of an issue, as they can mark or even cut the leather....a right bitch! Ul just have to do what i do...."Lose the f**king trousers or walk", tho i was saying this before i got the leathers......
