Just clean them then lather them up good with the HD leather dressing and they will be fine. There are many leather conditioners and dressings,... I just use the HD stuff, though.

Rain won't hurt them. The cleaner you keep them the better,... and don't let them dry out and crack (the reason for the leather dressing).
