Whatever Oz tells you to do, do it
PLEASE don't oil it I will send you a link as to explain (oxidises the leather) why and how to look after your leather including a recipe to make your own leather conditioner, Oz (Saddler)
I have tack that is over 50 years old and still regualry in use and still in excellent condition and it has been oiled and soaped all its life!
I am talking about modern leather not leather that is 20-40 years old pr more that some people still use. The rearing of the cattle, the slaughtering and tanning processes have changed over the years and leather today is not the same as it was years ago.I have tack that is over 50 years old and still regualry in use and still in excellent condition and it has been oiled and soaped all its life!
.....or even better, Oz, (if it is not infringing any advertising rules or secret recipes!) publish on here so we can all benefit.
