Product Care & Cleaning

It is vital not to let dirt build up over time on items of leather clothing. Never use products containing solvents to clean them. Use the Dainese “Protection & Cleaning Kit” that you can find at any Dainese store. This kit contains two products: the first is for thoroughly cleaning the hide while the second nourishes it to keep it soft and pliable. If you don't have a kit, you can always use a sponge or a clean cloth and cold water with a little neutral soap as detergent. After cleaning the item, leave it to completely dry well away from any sources of heat (e.g. the sun, radiators, ...) and, if possible, on a flat surface or on a suitable hanger. The lining must be washed separately in water at 40°C max; Dainese recommends that you use a neutral soap and not a detergent powder which might be abrasive.

1) Do not rub down the garment with a brush or abrasive materials or creams.

2) To remove both gnats and dust, simply wipe the area with a soft sponge soaked in neutral soap and water. It is best to promptly remove any organic spots left by insects (e.g. gnats, mosquitoes etc.), since the fluids they contain are quite aggressive on the leather.

3) Any oil or grease should be washed immediately with a soft damp cloth, clean with gentle circular movements, avoiding to unduly rubbing the soiled area.

4) Dry the garment away from heat sources and in a well-ventilated place, it is best to use a clothes hanger to prevent the garment from creasing or taking on shapes that are difficult to eliminate.

5) When a garment is dried after it is accidentally wet, the leather may appear dry or stiff. To restore its initial characteristics use the Dainese Leather care KIT Protection and Cleaning Kit, which can be found at any Dainese dealer. The kit has two products: the first has an in-depth cleansing action on the leather, the second maintains it rich and soft, feeding the leather and keeping it hydrated.

The Kit can be also be used for normal cleaning and care for the garment, always when dry. Remember to take great care with garments made of several different materials. In this case, always and only follow the instructions on the garment label.

PLEASE NOTE:

Please remember that the “Regenerate your Dainese leather clothing” service only refers to leather items of clothing, i.e. jackets, trousers and leather suits (two-piece or professional).

Dainese do not offer any other type of service specifically for cleaning leather items.

Please also note that Dainese do not offer any type of service for cleaning fabric items.

 

* items made of more than one material (e.g. fabrics, suede, split cowhide…) are excluded.

** for items damaged in different areas and that need partial or complete repair work, an estimate will be prepared according to the extent of the damages. (Evaluation by Dainese.)

Given the complex nature of their structure, it is not possible to re-stitch the knees on the most recent models of leather suits.

Dainese reserve the right to refuse, i.e. return not regenerated, items of leather clothing that are in a "critical" condition. This applies particularly to blood stains or residual dirt (mud and/or similar) which have penetrated deep into the leather. This pertains particularly to leathers that need special treatment (e.g. items made with Vintage leather). Dainese will make the decision about whether an item is "critical" or not.

Please also note that the results of the service supplied depend on the condition in which items are received, on their wear and on the care that has been taken of them over time.
