Chains, Reins, Leashes, Wallets & Hooks

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.

I bought both the oil and the heavy duty preservative from Cabela's.

The oil would go on belts and leather tags?.. Preservative for boots?..

[nixage]

That's probably what most would do.  There are no rules though.  I used the oil first on the belt (on outside) and then used the preservative on it as well (but on the inside).  It worked out well since it didn't darken the belt any more.

But yeah, I'd probably use the preservative on my boots.
(The preservative was developed by a firefighter for leather that's in really harsh conditions)

[deadendpro]

hey, thanks a lot nixage. now i can feel more comfortable ordering it online from somewhere that it has been ordered from.

[nixage]

no worries.  Cabela's is great.  It was also one of the cheapest places I found it (when you factor in shipping).
