Stop Destroying Your Leather Shoes and Jacket! (Fix Wet Leather In 5 Min)

About this video

Centeno explains how to protect leather goods from water damage and what to do if they get wet. He covers preventative measures like wax polish for full and top grain leather and silicone-based sprays for suede, then details proper drying techniques and restoration methods for various leather items.

Key takeaways

• Centeno argues that full and top grain leather are naturally water resistant but can be damaged if completely soaked, as water washes away protective natural oils
• Centeno recommends applying wax polish in two coats to boost water resistance on leather, and using silicone-based waterproofing spray on suede items
• Centeno advises against using heat to dry wet leather or suede, instead recommending air drying at room temperature with newspaper or cedar inside shoes, and applying conditioner or brush treatment afterward to restore softness
