Yea, thats what I am doing. But no more putting it in front of the heater, though I think that my new "old goat" survived.

Thanks for the tips guys!

I also use Motorex Helmet Care Active Foam for the liner of jackets. It is a product that works miracles for helmets and works nearly as well for jackets. Really great stuff...

I know this thread is several years old, but I’ll comment on professional leather cleaning, in case some folks decide to go that route: NOT JUST ANY PROFESSIONAL LEATHER CLEANER WILL DO.

I once took an older jacket to a local leather cleaner and it came back saturated with chemicals and was still moist in some areas. The leather was softer but had a residue on it, and the lining was a different shade. Basically ruined the jacket. Got only a refund for the $70 service and threw the jacket away.

It's a weird addiction. I wish I'd been one of those people who hated the smell and never lit up again after their first cigarette, but I wasn't. Real fear made me quit.

That, and jackets were getting smoky.

I quit cold turkey about two years ago. Finally realized after about three days the addiction was beyond physiological and needed something to do with my hands, so here I sit typing with one of those stupid vape things.

Before I seldom wore my jackets due to fear of the stench on clothes. I too like the smell in the open however. Hope you are doing okay HD.

I have to say that I do vape too sometimes, no nicotine though, just flavor. But it's nothing like when I smoked cigarrettes.

After smoking for much of my life I quit February of 2017 when diagnosed with colon and liver cancer. I'm like HeavenlyHadley.. I do miss it sometimes.


HoosierDaddy...I hope you get better and defeat that nasty disease.

In the game late here, but has anyone tried activated charcoal to remove objectionable odors? I went to pump some gas into my car a few years back and some lout had left the nozzle locked open. Doused my new shoes with awful stinking gas. I was not amused to say the least. So I did a bit of research online and found that activated charcoal in a cardboard box with the odoriferous item for a week or so will remove offending smells and it's cheap. You can get the charcoal used in aquariums in big jars at your friendly local discount store.
