Default Leather Cleaner

Leathers are looking a bit dull - worn places going slightly brown and wrinkley. Were fairly pricey, so should have kept better care! Any good tips or cleaners to use to restore them/make them look good as new?

Thanks

I just use a damp microfibre to clean them and twice a year i nourish them with some autoglym leather cream that is meant for leather car seats, but works on anything made from leather - even shoes etc.

Two things that I do with mine, firstly each year will rub them with Heine Gericke leather cleaner which works well.

Secondly, for the first time in 8 years I took them into Morrisons for their leather clean service, it did cost £30, but blimey it was well spent. They looked like a brand new pair of trousers. This is going to be more regulary on my shopping list!
