Restoring Your Wilsons Leather Jacket: Built for a Lifetime
If you look in closets across the country, one of the most commonly owned and beloved leather garments you will find is the Wilsons Leather jacket. Whether you purchased it recently or have been wearing it for decades, these jackets are true wardrobe staples.
As 4th-generation leather experts who have been in the business since 1946, we have serviced countless Wilsons Leather jackets. The good news? They are incredibly resilient. When cared for properly, they clean exceptionally well and can easily last for many more years of daily wear.
Why Wilsons Leather Cleans So Beautifully
Over time, any leather jacket will accumulate surface soils, absorb body oils, and begin to look a bit dull or stiff. Because Wilsons uses sturdy, quality hides for their construction, these jackets respond wonderfully to our proprietary immersion and conditioning processes.
Instead of just wiping down the surface, a true professional restoration involves deep pore cleaning to extract old, degraded oils and dirt. We follow this up with fat-liquor replacement, which infuses the hide with the essential natural oils it needs to remain soft, supple, and resistant to cracking.
Why Local Dry Cleaners Aren't Enough
When your Wilsons jacket starts to show its age, you might be tempted to drop it off at the neighborhood dry cleaner. However, local cleaners are generalists. They often lack the specialized chemicals and heritage knowledge required to safely clean and condition genuine animal hides without causing them to dry out or bleed.
Your jacket is an investment, and it deserves a specialist's touch to ensure it survives for the long haul.
The "Photo First" Virtual Assessment
We want to make caring for your jacket as easy and stress-free as possible. Before you even think about putting your Wilsons jacket in a box, we encourage you to use our "Photo First" rule.
