Happy with Cobbler's Choice
I have a pair of Red Wing boots which I paid lots of money for 24 years ago and I'm try to keep them in good condition, since they are my motorcycle boots and the feet need to stay dry and warm. Lately I heard of Cobbler's Choice and that the products don't have any petroleum products in them - that sparked my interest and I googled the products and then purchased the Leather Kit. I had washed my boots with dish-soap and water what I usually do which took the dirt off, hence with the Cobbler's Cleaner I really couldn't see any "cleaning improvement". Then came the Conditioner and that's where my BIG WOW came. The leather soaked it up and in the process darkened the leather a bit (which I liked) to a rich brown look, I did one good coat by rubbing it in with the fingers and especially the seems (no brush) and let it sit over night. The next day I put a coat of water proofing spray on, let it sit for a day and then put on a second coat of water proofing. The pictures show the boots after the cleaning, conditioning and water proofing. Unfortunately I didn't take "before pictures". We will see how it all holds up during my next trip in April, so far I am very happy.
