Pecard Motorcycle Leather CareMotorcycle leather apparel is the classic choice for vintage motorcycle riders, and like anything, maintenance is key to enjoying leather’s benefits. This kit from Pecard makes it easy to give leather the three things it needs: conditioning, waterproofing and protective gloss. We used the kit to freshen up an old pair of boots and it worked beautifully. Pecard guarantees their product to work on any motorcycle leather apparel and accessories including boots, jackets, saddlebags and seats. Kit, $20. More info: www.pecard.com
