You should oil it sooner if you're riding a lot in dry or variable weather conditions. The protective finish is water-based_ so your leather can breathe. Do not use detergent-based_ solvent_ or harsh cleaning products. Rub the leather gently_ and do not scrub vigorously with soap and water. This saddle is a hybrid saddle built with Suede use only a cleaner specially designed for the care of suede leather. The Suede should be dusted or vacuum cleaned free of dust and dirt_ brushed with a stiff brush to bring back the nap_ and spot cleaned with a damp cloth.
