        Well, to give us an objective impression, you should also describe the odour of all leather pieces 😉 Olive and Mustang are super nice.

            How more objective can I be than giving you a photo with no comment?

            And subjective is subjective - depends what you want to achieve.  Personally I think it is remarkable that the mustang paste does not alter the original colour…..Not saying that is what I like, just think it is remarkable......

              Natural for the win. I might have to go with Kiya on this and not treat any of my leathers…

                  Was thinking the same… And not buying any new leathers soon (normally)... Aaah well!..  🙂

                    I haven't been oiling my Samurai belt yet as I love the natural colour right now. But then, it has a light tan out of the factory. My Obbigood or Pike Brothers belt that came really raw, grainy and light coloured needed treatment. Still, I think I'll oil my W001 someday, but not yet.

                          Will do.  I walk past it everyday, and it looks pretty similar to me.  But pics tomorrow…..

                                        thanks a lot for the update G.
                                        I have to say that I like the olive oil one the best…right after that, is the "none" sample!
                                        how many times have you applied the oil now?
