Obenauf's leather oil will do the trick.

I use Bick 4 on all my leather stuff and it works pretty well. Not sure how easily available it is outside the US, though.

This is sorta unrelated, but i was wondering what everyone suggests for a decent winter weather boot/shoe that looks closer to a sneaker and can be obtained quickly for under a hundred bucks
Going on vacation for a couple weeks to Mass soon (22nd) and all i have are old skate shoes at this point… i bought a pair of New Balance H710 and don't like the way they feel when i walk in them (and they're not exactly water resistant eh) so i'm returning them... then i looked at the Nike Mogan Mid OSM and thought they looked ok but then started reading reviews and people complained about the seam that connects the tongue to the shoe seriously hurting their feet. Pass. Grrr.
Any suggestions?

I'm a fan of Palladium boots. They have a few styles that are waterproof, look sort of sneaker-like, and aren't too tough to find. I also think they're really comfortable, with little to no break in required. When I went to NYC back in October, I made a poor choice on which boots to wear and ended up blistered on the first day there. I found a store, bought a pair of the Pampa boots and wore them for the next 4 days straight.

^ Some quick suggestions:
1.) Nike ACG Manta Leather $90 -
2.) Nike ACG Dunk High $120 -
3.) Nike ACG Lunar Brataa Mid $80 -
*I personally don't own any of these models, but I think the ACG line is some of Nike's best stuff. Option #3 has basically everything you are looking for, and although there aren't any reviews, I can attest that lunarlon is VERY comfortable. Plus, you could get the pair + tax and 3-day shipping for $100. Just my two cents.
