Anyone use Renapur on leather jackets?
I too have used it on jackets .... it's a great product and is natural and free of distillates ( unlike pecards for example) .... it can be quite a "heavy" dressing and certainly improves water resilience ( the beeswax I guess) and I've seen no long term negative effects over the 10 or so years...- Plumbline

I did look at some vintage CHP jackets and while they were made of thick leather (2.5-3oz) .. .they were generally steer ( I only ever saw a few horsehide examples and the hide was always significantly thinner ( max 2.5oz) than CXL and while it looked chrome tanned it didn't have the same...- Plumbline

But even that has been used by several manufacturers .. in fact one manufacturer of M/C jackets was even called "Highwayman" in the 60's and 70's ...... and it has been the source of much litigation !- Plumbline
