Please be aware that oil-finished leather has the potential to stain light colored clothing due to it's varying, but high content of, well... oil.  A note on caring for your work apron In the shop, we finish all our work aprons with Dr. Jackson's Conditioning Cream. A modest application will do good things to worn or dry areas. For hotter, dryer regions (or applications), we recommend modest doses of Fiebing's Aussie Leather Conditioner with Beeswax. Don't apply too much or it'll get a little sticky.
