You don't really need to do anything special. I have SO interior as well and it's held up pretty well (2015 w/34k miles). I'm starting to see slight wear on the bolster, but you have to look very close to see it.
You're going to get two answers here: 1) Leather conditioner/cleaner. 2) Warm DI water and MF towel off. I just use a Chemical Guys cleaner/conditioner with a wool detail brush and MF towel and I think it's good, but I don't know any better. Consensus is that Leatherique is the go to brand for care. |

This is what I use. The best smelling product.
You can just use the cleaner. Or for added soft shine use the conditioner. |

Just my personal opinion - people tend to overdo it with leather. Once a month I will wipe them down with Adam's Leather Cleaner and once a year I'll use leather conditioner on them. Less is more.
And the leather is not supposed to be glossy - it's more of a satin finish. |

^ Agree. I use a damp microfiber towel with a couple sprays of UV inhibiting interior cleaner and a couple sprays of Griots leather care like once a month. My sonoma beige seats look perfect. I really think cleanliness is the key... Removing dirt and oils pretty frequently.
If they ever start to dry out, I would do a high quality leather conditioner like leatherique, but that would be like on an annual basis at most. |
