you should not ride a brooks when it is wet, the leather stretches, a plastic carrier bag over it fastened with a lacky will keep weather off it when raining or parked. neatsfoot oil, generously applied at regular intervals will provide the required 'lube' ,tighten only as a last resort.
if you want it shiny and polished i suggest you get a plastic saddle, idiot !
