Or is there a better way to treat a leather jacket?

I haven't used Apple products but we restored dh's Les Copains leather jacket with
Leather CPR. It's a nice smooth cleaner/conditioner lotion that is easy to spread and work with. His jacket was just stiff, not cracking but dry enough to be uncomfortable to wear. I also use Leather CPR on my Chanel and Marc Jacobs, also the handles of LV vachetta, so it is pretty safe. I use the inverted squeeze bottle (I guess they use this for saddles in stables) so it is the cleaner/conditioner in one.
Another product is Leather Honey (or Honey Leather?), it's very viscous, literally like honey and you'll have to be careful using this... a bit messy and will probably "ooze" if used too liberally. Probably best for rejuvenating the most dry leather jacket there is (cracks forming, etc). It requires a small amount to saturate the leather for about 2 hours or more before wiping.
