Back in the iPhone 6sPlus days, I remember reading here that people applied Qiwi or other Leather treatments to their Saddle Brown cases to protect the leather against stains / water ETc.

Anyone here do that with theirs or recommend?
 
I use a product called "leather afterlife" I had around for my car seats & home furniture. Works well. Did it mostly for the water repelling when out in the snow/rain etc
 
I’ll use this about once every other month or so.

This was suggested on MR or somewhere else a while ago, it's what i've used on my leather cases. My application preference is to apply a light, thin coat on the case with my my finger, applied it in a circular motion, wipe off any excess residue with a finger as well. Let it sit for a couple of hours, as the directions state. Then I've wiped, or buffed so to speak, with the lower left palm of my hand. IMO leaves it with a nice feel.
