Care for the MINI Yours steering wheel

My SO has the MINI Yours steering wheel in her 2019F57 and I’m and starting to feel like it’s wearing strangely, it’s some of the softest leather I have ever had in a car. I was wondering if anyone else with an F57 had any suggestions on product to keep it nice.

I've got the MINI Yours steering wheel in my 2019 F57. Put 23,000 miles on it since taking delivery May 2018 and the steering wheel still looks new. Does your SO frequently use hand creams or similar? If she does, I bet the creams and other products she's using are affecting the leather.

You are completely right, it is the sunscreen. I will see what I can do. Thanks for the help.

No problem, and good luck with the fix. Maybe try a high-quality leather cleaner and then a conditioner.
