I dampen a microfiber cloth with water.  That is what the manufacturer recommended.

I've had two navy blue wing back chairs that are now about 40 years old.  A soft cloth with warm water is all I've every used and they still look like new.  At the time we purchased them, I asked what was the best way to clean them and "a soft cloth with warm water" was what they recommended.

I agree, warm water applied with an old tee shirt.  If there is a section that is soiled I use diluted Simple Green and then wipe with warm water and soft tee shirt.

I use Meguiars Gold Class Cleaner/Leather/Protectant on my leather recliner.  I think auto supply stores have it.

Vinegar and water or Pledge. Yes, Pledge. Both work very nicely. Plain water is a bit labor intensive.

@stevieb I use vinegar and water on a soft cloth wrung out well to dust.  I saw it on a show about Buckingham Palace.  So thought why not and it works great on a lot of things.

Used ivory soap on a soft cloth to clean our cream-colored sectional.  Rinsed with a clean cloth. Never a problem.
