how to take care of my holster?

I own a leather holster and have just ordered a kydex holster. What is the proper way to care for them? What should I do daily, if anything, and what should I do after being caught in the pouring rain or sweating on it all day.

Thanks in advance

The kydex is easy, rinse it out under the faucet in the sink and dry with a paper towel.

The leather is a little more problematical. If it gets wet, you'll need to let it dry, and it wont dry out overnight, or even in a couple of days depending on how wet you get it or how bad you sweat. If you arent real active and work or live in a fairly clean, climate controlled environment, it probably wont be an issue.

My ratio for leather was generally two good holsters a year, every year. For kydex, well, 10 years for the same holster when the gun was retired, and I still have both, and both are still serviceable. Kydex pretty much lasts forever.
