    Go to an auto store and buy some leather cleaner that you use for the interior of your car. I think they come like wipes so you can just wipe your wallet or purse off.

  • well leather cleaner obvoiusly , you really wanna take care of your sh|t then i suggest you go to danier leather (if you guys have that in the states) and purchase their leather jacket cleaner (if your snooty like that) or you could just go to canadian tire (or some other place similar like that in the states) and purchase armour all it'll do the trick ps. never ever use alcohol on leather you'll ruin your precious wallet!

    Bees wax, Armor All, other leather upholstery cleaners. DO NOT WASH IN WATER!!!!! Water will shrink it and may make the dies bleed. If you have nothing else, use petroleum jelly (Vaseline). O, saddle soap will work.
