As Giles said, you don't really have to use anything, just wipe it off with a damp cloth and buff it up.
I have one as well and have treated it (once) with a product called Leather Groom.
It's foam based and you can't over apply it.
Dosen't colour the stitching either.

I've used Leather Groom for ages and had no problems.
I read an article in a Classic Car magazine once that was about The National Leather Care Institute (or something like that) who said it was all that they used to restore all sorts of leather upholstery and they used it specifically because you couldn't over apply it.
According to them we all put too much stuff on our leather.
I think you can get it on Ebay, in the UK anyway.

can anyone help? i just bought mid cordovan wallet. what kind of oil i should use for cordovan leather? i dont want to use mink oil in case i will ruin the color of wallet.
I would use horse oil, works a charm on all mammalian and avian leathers!
The highest penetration rate of all natural oils, won't alter the leather colour - just a bit expensive though.

Cordovan is funny stuff, most of the 'Care of Shell Cordovan' info on the web say just buff it up, no products on it what so ever.
I do however use a TINY little bit of Saphir Renovateur very infrequently on my Shell Cordovan Boots with no ill affects.
