Industry Describes Washable Leather Coats, Jackets New York The tanning in dustry has just disclosed that washable leather garments for. every member of the family will be a reality this fall. Made of the same type of leather called LaunderLeather which goes into washable gloves, the new jackets and coats can be dumped into the machine with the rest of the family wash, it is stated. Coats, jackets, jumpers and jeans in the new Launder Leather are already on the pro duction line and by fall Mrs. America will have them hanging on her wash line next to her hus band's shirts and the family linen. There will be no fuss con nected with washable Launder Leather apparel. Hundreds of test washings conducted by the industry's research laboratories and home economists have shown that the leather garments can be laundered with ordinary soap, flakes and detergent in either the tub or the washing machine, All smudges, greases and stains disappear like magic and the leather emerges not only com pletely color-fast, but without any stiffening, shrinkage or stretching. In several tests conducted by commercial laundries, ten Laun derLeather jackets, in colors running from bright red to pale yellow, were tossed together into the same machine for twen ty successive washings. None of the jackets showed any color bleeding or loss of the leather's original luster and suppleness. From a fashion standpoint, the new LaunderLeather clothes will present a wide selection of smart new jackets, coats, sep arates and slacks with designs to suit the individual taste of any woman. Both the suedes and the capeskins will be available in all the new fall colors including fern green, peacock blue, basque led, persimmon and charcoal. Also featured will be men's tailored and casual jackets, in beige-to-brown suedes and sturdy capeskins. These will be dacron or nylon lined to facilitate wash ing. Of special interest to the av erage mother will a generous assortment of children's clothes in the new LaunderLeather. Jackets, jeans and cover-alls will soon be carried by the stores all made of strong, durable leather made to withstand day-to-day wear and rough-and-tum- ble play. A sudsing in the tub or a quick cycle in the washing ma chine will remove all dirt, grime or grease and the leather will look good as new.
