So much for a perfect fit. These sleeves are NOT LONG ENOUGH for cat petting.

It’s quite cool, and the fit is pretty good. My question is: do I Obenauf’s it? For years I preferred all my brown jackets to go darker, but this one might be better left alone in it’s current nut-brown color. What do you guys think? Here is my test patch:

^^ I would condition if it was dry, as I feel they almost always return to the original pre-treated color after a time.
otherwise leave as is and enjoy

No to obenaufs on anything unless you are out working on salty roads or something. It's like putting snow chains on your car in Beverly Hills.
