Leather back - Do I need to condition?

[Zendroid1]

I've never really owned many leather things. I have a few pair of boots/shoes and I use this leather conditioner that I got from amazon and it keeps them looking nice and I guess protects them somewhat.

Do we need to or should we condition the leather backed phones?

I have no idea, but I was thinking of doing that when I get mine.

Yeah, I'd use a good leather conditioner to keep it looking nice. You can also use saddle soap before the conditioner if it gets dirty.

Absolutely! If you don't keep leather clean and condition, it'll eventually dry out and crack.

I am no expert but some of these leather dressing don't sound good. Then again this website is trying to sell their product. Care of Fine Leather

We are lucky the LG G4 leather isn't going to be flexed like a wallet. This is what got me since I have the T-Mobile Light Brown;

" The majority of leather dressings are based on tallow or neatsfoot oil.Tallow, even kidney fat, contains salts which build up with repeated dressing and attack the leather fibres. Neatsfoot oil compounds, long recognized for damage to sewing, also weaken and blacken the leather. Both these animal fats provide a culture for the growth of bacteria and fungus, and turn rancid, resulting in further attack on the leather. The more liquid formulations also evaporate quickly, leaving the leather dry and open to rapid deterioration by oxidation and mechanical break down."

A little saddle soap.

Saddle Soap is all you need.

I have Zaino that I use on my Murano so I will use it for this when I get it.
