Has anyone any good ideas of stuff that will restore the original colour Ben

Rub it in then buff it off.. There's plenty of stuff around, even that stuff we always get sucked into at Bike Shows... French sounding name What have you got to lose?

If not you could try your local horse supply company Saddle Wax works just as good. Cheers Don

I use it on my very old 80's English leather jacket that I just can't give up, but the poor things WAY not fashionable anymore. I also use it on my Colorado shoes and of course my Rossi boots. I bought mine at a market somewhere years ago and seems to last and last and last. Very good product; although more for leather than the material used in Dryrider? http://www.renapur.com/ Here's one from me. How do you wash a dryrider jacket? Bathtub? I know I have to handwash my Summer riding jacket, but maybe warm soapy water for the dryrider?? Mine's in great condition as is only 5 years old.
