4. Dry it with a towel or let it air-dry

​

Deep Cleaning (Mud, Smells & Stains):

2. Use a soft brush or sponge to scrub stubborn dirt/stain

Other Tips & Tricks:

Baking Soda Paste

• For stubborn grime, mix baking soda with water to form a paste and scrub the area gently with a soft brush​​

​​

Magic Eraser Touch Up

• If you have a magic eraser sponge laying around somewhere in the house, use it to gently buff out surface marks or scuffs - perfect for light coloured gear.​

​​

Toothbrush Detail Clean

• Use an old toothbrush to clean around buckles, rings and rivets where dirt or fur can build up.​

 

White Vinegar Spray

• Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Lightly mist, let it sit for a few minutes and wipe clean.​

​​

Dry Hardware After Cleaning

• After cleaning / washing the gear, wipe down all metal hardware to prevent water spots or premature rusting; especially on solid brass.​​​​
