Don't worry about it. I have 2 young kids, and I let them eat in the car. I just make sure they always have napkins, drinks are covered, and they aren't clowning around. I vacuum regularly.
To clean, I use Lexol leather cleaner and conditioner. Probably once every 3 months. It looks almost like new after more than a year. Jeans are an issue, especially when relatively new. Old jeans are fine. These again come off with Lexol. If I have very new and dark jeans, I'll keep a pillow case in the boot/trunk. When I wear those jeans, I tuck the pillow case into the back of my waist, like a cape, and it protects the seat largely. Honestly, the leather is easy to take care of. What is worse is beige carpets. So the black carpets are perfect.

![]() In all honesty the best thing to do is keep up with cleaning and conditioning the leather with proper products. Leatherique's cleaning system (rejuvenator oil & Pristine clean) are some of the best products on the market. Use the Pristine Clean once every 2-3 months and every year get the interior cleaned up with the Oil and you are set! Also wiping off the leather with a damp towel isn't a bad idea to remove any dirt that may have accumulated. I have the Creme/Beige interior which is almost the same as the oyster/black if not worse and it still looks pretty good!

It always cracks my wife up. You can use different color pillow cases for a more dramatic entrance.
