New suede leather jacket – do I need to waterproof it or apply a protective coating?
I recently bought a suede leather jacket. I am just wondering whether I need to apply a protective coating or waterproof layer (eg. Scotchguard) before I start wearing it?
I am worried that if I do nothing, and get caught in the rain the leather will be destroyed. However, I also want to check whether spraying my jacket with a protective coating is going to make the texture hard or sticky or anything like that?
Does anyone have any experience or advice?
There is a very good suede protector called Waterstop which if used regularly on suede jackets will make it much easier to look after and prevent it from getting very dirty

Suede $54.86 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Suede is a type of leather with a napped finish. However, it can also refer to a similar napped or brushed finish on many kinds of fabrics. The term comes from the French gants de Sude, which literally means gloves of Sweden. Suede leather is made from the under side of the skin, primarily lamb, although goat, pig, calf and deer are commonly used. Splits from thick hides of cow and deer are also sueded but due to the fiber nature have a shaggy nap. Because suede does not include the tough exterior skin layer, suede is less durable but softer than standard ( fullgrain ) leather. Its softness, thinness, and pliability make it suitable for clothing and delicate uses; suede was originally used for womens gloves.
