Einleitung

This guide demonstrates the process of repairing a cracked leather jacket through wear. Cracking in leather may be caused by excessive, rapid drying or heat damage. Leather can be repaired through various methods including gluing and patchwork, restoring it to a more wearable condition.


Leather jackets can be expensive to replace, and prices can increase depending on the quality of the leather. Therefore, repairing a leather jacket can prevent it from contributing to the millions of garments being thrown into landfills. By making repairs to your clothing, you may extend the life of the items, reduce the amount you consume, and prevent waste. In a fast fashion industry that profits from negligence, repairing is fundamentally a radical act of kindness. By repairing a leather jacket, the individual can utilize the most out of the clothing.
