Default conditioning leather

I take my truck in every saturday to have it washed and cleaned inside and out. I found out today that the guy that does it has been conditioning the leather every week. Was wondering if that is too often and could hurt the leather in the long run or am I overthinking it?

Curious as well. This is the first vehicle I have had with leather. What does everyone use to condition it?

I use PoorBoys World Products Leather Conditioner. Condition as much as you'd like!

Well that's good to hear. The detail shop I take my truck to is ran by the owner. I always give him 5 or 10 dollars extra so I guess he started conditioning my leather as part of the service. I guess it pays to take care of local business owners.
