Ham,

What do you use to condition the leather?

Did you ask Howie about this potential problem? If so, what was his answer?

As I jump in here too. I use Kiwi mink oil. It comes in a paste in a shoe polish tin. I rub it to the leather with my fingers before it goes in the wash and after ( my contemporary kilts). Works really well
