How to wash and care for your Ona Polo Gloves

We have used the latest technology to guarantee the perfect fit, feel, grip and maximum durability. Our gloves are easy care and hand washable.

For best results:

Put the gloves on and wash gently in lukewarm water using mild detergent or soap flakes. Remove gloves and rinse thoroughly in clean water. Squeeze out all excess water from fingers downwards and pull gently into shape. Hang to dry away from direct sunlight or heat.

Light coloured gloves should not be washed with coloured articles. Coloured gloves may be washed with articles of similar colour provided instructions are followed. For best results please wash gloves before they become too soiled.

In order to extend the life of your Ona polo gloves always after chukkas hang out to dry and bring into shape.

How to care for your Ona Polo Saddle

Put your saddle on a saw horse, saddle rack, or something similar to hold it up while you clean it. Get two clean sponges, a small bucket full of warm water, some form of saddle soap and some neatsfoot oil or leather dressing. Dip one sponge in the warm water, gently wring it out and put some saddle soap on it. Place the sponge on the saddle with saddle soap facing down, and rub vigorously over the whole saddle.

Make sure that you get all the leather parts of the saddle on both sides, putting more saddle soap on every once in a while. Wash the saddle soap off the sponge in the water, then wipe the saddle with the sponge to remove the soap .

Since leather loses moisture and fats over time, it will need to be conditioned. However, if you over-condition your tack, it will get greasy and the stitching and leather fibers can deteriorate; frequent, light conditioning will skirt the problem. Use a towel to apply a light layer of conditioner. Avoid products that are petroleum-based, as they will dry out the leather through fat emulsion. If over-used, neatsfoot oil will rot stitching, but can work fine if used sparingly; it gives leather a dark color, however. Olive oil works as well.
