no wonder! I soaked mine with pretty hot water. so use what kinda oil? mink oil? there's also obernauf oil and etc right? I'm confused with the oil thing. which is good for our leather patch?

you even can use normal olive oil if you don't have special oil for leather around!…
are you serious?! I'm still looking for the word joking in your post. hahaha.
so you use normal olive oil for yours?

why not?…i think if olive oil is good enough for us peops to cook with i think it´s seriously good enough to maintain the leather patch of your jeans, right?

^ that looks awesome Doug. how much do you apply? just spread around the patch? the back of the patch?
and after applying the olive oil, how long do you wait before you can use it? and, we don't need to sun tan it after applying olive oil? thanks!

I've been into high end denim for about five years now, and the fascination of obsessing over my jeans has passed
If there's anything that's more involved than washing my jeans when they're dirty is required, I ignore it
Most of my denim related activities don't involve paying attention to my denim. It's doing stuff in my denim. My life is complicated enough as it is

no…you only tan your natural leathers to darken them up! they don't need to get tanned at all actually!

Too much sun is unhealty, remember to use sun tan lotin with sufficient protection I'd say at least #15. If you stay long in the sun, it's better use sun block with rating #30 or more….
huhhuh.... are you serious??? Rafa just said to you: I just put my jeans back on and done. Which part you didn't get?
