How strong is yak leather?

Leather Jacket Care. Textured leather.?

• Hello all! I have a leather desk chair that I got a used furniture store and I purchased a bottle of Leather Lotion for it. I was starting to put away winter clothes when I found my father's old leather jacket. He says that the leather is supposed to wear so that it 'flakes' a bit but to me, it just looks old and dry... A chair is at least a large, stable object that I can work on with a cloth but a Jacket seems like such a bigger task having to lay it out and make sure I don't miss any parts. So I guess my question is: 1. Will Leather Lotion (Kiwi Brand) work on a coat. 2. Can I just rub the lotion on in patches, i.e. first one sleeve, let dry, then the back, let dry... etc. then buff it all with a shoe brush or will letting the different parts dry between applications cause problems? I have polished shoes before but never something as hard as a whole coat. Any help in regards to proper leather care would be appreciated. (I learned how to do shoes from a woman called Pony Girl that had actually won an international boot-black competition... But I lost her card so I am turning to you! LOL)
