What's the best conditioner for a leather motorcycle jacket?

Question:
I want to treat my leather motorcycle jacket for riding in the rain and snow. It's not important that it's 100% waterproof, but it is important that the jacket isn't damaged and doesn't loose it's shape. I've heard various arguments regarding beeswax and mink oil products, and some argue against products which inhibit leather's ability to 'breathe.' What are the critical issues I need to be aware of, and what's not so important?
