I have washed leather before, though. I wash my vintage Coach bags. It involves lots of leather conditioner afterwards. Does the leather seem stiff at all? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/soi-bought-a-rick-owens-leather-jacket-second-hand#post-1702526 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 05:50:58 +0000 Cococat 1702526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maneera, thank you for such great advice. I have been using a dry hand towel but I can see how dampening it would be better.</p> <p>I can't wait to try this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/soi-bought-a-rick-owens-leather-jacket-second-hand#post-1702515 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 05:03:44 +0000 Maneera 1702515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's gorgeous!!! </p> <p>I have tried the exact same thing with leather bags that got crushed in the cupboard. I use a slightly damp 100% cotton hand towel. Lay the jacket flat over a hard surface or ironing board. Put the towel over the jacket and iron on low to medium temp. Keep moving the iron so as not to overheat any spot. The dampness in the towel will create steam that will iron out the creases. Hope that helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/soi-bought-a-rick-owens-leather-jacket-second-hand#post-1701957 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 15:43:24 +0000 tulle 1701957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lucky you!&nbsp; One of his jackets has long been at the top of my wish list.

Then one came up on Ebay Oz. I got it at a great price, probably because it looked a little crushed. </p> <p>It arrived the other day, and it was crushed, not big creases, just a general crushed look as if it got wet and then dried. I took it to the dry cleaner for advice and he said that it appears to have been washed. I know that some people do this with RO leather. He suggested that I iron it on low temp over a cloth and see how it goes.</p> <p>I've ironed it once and it looks a lot better and doesn't seem to have hurt it. I'm going to do it again and also steam it in the shower. </p> <p>I'm excited to style it and show you! </p> <p>PS. This is the style of it and the colour is Pearl</p>
