Here I have a leather chair that had a battle with a cat. But it's not as hard as it seems to make this chair look like new (or at least cool and distressed). You can use Lexol, a commercial product, but I had an old tin of mink oil around the house. Mink oil, which is the rendered fat of minks, replaces the natural oils in the leather. Just rub it in and watch the damage disappear. The lower half of this chair arm has been treated. The whole thing looked like the top section before I started!

How to Recondition Leather
Have a beat up leather chair? Belt? Seat in your car? Briefcase? Gloves? Leather that isn't taken care of will crack, ruining the item. But well maintained leather will last practically forever.
