    You could try hand washing it inside-out with very little detergent but rinse well....hang in shade to dry(may take a couple of days) then give it a really good dubbin.

    Dubbin is the stuff that keeps your leather supple and waterproof, you should dubbin leather's regularly for longevity. You can buy it at bike shops and shoe stores or places like farmlands where they sell workboots.

    You can machine wash it if you want to...but use a gentle cycle.

    Follow the manufacturers washing instructions precisely. Use Nikwax or Sportwash detergent, it rinses out completely and doesn't block the membrane.
    Air dry and use a waterproofing treatment if you wish. The Nikwax treatment doesn't need heat to activate it and can be applied while wet.
