Saddle soap or hang it by an open window.Organised people are just too lazy to look for things

Hang it in the garden! Always have to do that with any jackets worn to go "out". Hard to believe so many people have apparently kicked the smoking habit
. I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe

i dont know, going out is definately much less smokey than it used to be. the place i went to wasnt even that bad, its just that the person i had gone out with was smoking, so there wasnt any avoiding it really.
personally, im quite glad to see more and more places putting either complete smoking bans, or bans between certain hours of day. makes going out much more enjoyable, not having to breathe in 2nd hand smoke.know thyselfNid wy'n gofyn bywyd moethus...0 -

Before I can help, I need to know if it makes you salivate when you put it on?0 -
Either hang the coat on the washing line, or if the weather is bad then hang the jacket in the bathroom for a few days - have a few bubble baths and hopefully that'll help remove any smokey smell! If you've gor any aromatherapy oils you could add a few drops of that to the bath water and the "aroma-steam" will freshen up your jacket.0

My local Wilkinson's do a pack of 20 leather wipes for £1.49, i brought them for my sofa but found that they work on leather jackets too, they clean and neutralise odours.
Hope it helpsSue0
