"A pair of leather gloves add the perfect finishing touch to any winter outfit. But after a wet winter, they can quickly lose their luster, getting dirty fingers or fading. If you&amp;#039;re sad to see your favorite gloves lose their like-new look, here are easy steps to clean them:  Step 1: With a dampened paper towel, work a small bit of saddle soap into a lather (try Meltonian Saddle Soap). Step 2: Don one glove and with the sudsy paper towel in the other hand, gently work the soap into the soiled areas. RELATED: How to Clean All of Your Winter Gear Step 3: After several seconds, use a new damp paper towel to rinse away the soap and grime. Step 4: Repeat steps 1 through 3, if needed. Do the same with the other glove. Step 5: Allow both gloves to air dry. Take note: Wet leather loses color easily, so don&amp;#039;t over-wet or vigorously rub the gloves. I tested it out on a pair of my own red gloves and black ones, too. It was difficult to tell if they really looked any cleaner, but the leather certainly felt cleaner and softer, so I was pleased.
