I tried the same Meguires leather wipes you have but I don't care for them at all. Way too greasy and messy for me.

You need leather condition, not wipes. Those are basically cleaners. Some of them actually dry out the leather. Pretty much any leather conditioner will work. Saddle Soap is fine. Otherwise, just hit up the car section at a store of your choice and grab some leather conditioner. With "most" car care products, the more expensive ones really are better.

Zaino do a very nice leather conditioner as do Autoglym although I don't care for the smell of the latter but you do get more in a bigger bottle.

I use Griot's Garage Leather Care, and apply it with a detailer sponge. I haven't used anything else, so can't give you a comparison. It is not messy or greasy.
