WAYWT - Shoes/Boots Edition!

Great looking boots @Dishelveled ! I'm also loving my pair.
I'd like to keep them as close to their original light tan color as possible for as long as possible and was wondering whether lubricating the leather from the inside of the boot would help there. These are unlined, and presumably, the oil/wax should have no problem doing its job from the inside out. Ever tried that? Mine are still in break-in phase so I haven't applied anything to them yet.

Bick4 for the win on maintaining original color @motojobobo

Seriously gorgeous leather–love the marbling begining to show through.
Maybe a silicone nano spray will help maintain the original color as water will change it the most?

Should work, I think. I haven't tried it, but the logic seems sound. Trying to rub conditioner into the toe of the boot seems like it would be a huge hassle to do, though.

I'll give the 'lubricate from the inside' a try and report back when I get some results @mikebarhoot , @Dishelveled and @Chris . If that doesn't seem to work I'll order Bick4 and try it. Thanks for your comments.

Zappos says it's: Saucony Originals Shadow Original Suede Ranger. The box is already gone so I'm not sure of any other info. https://www.zappos.com/p/saucony-originals-shadow-original-suede-ranger-green-gold/product/9068304/color/1421
They're really comfortable.

Thanks - really nice kicks. The laces make a big difference and give that special look. I own some Saucony Shadow 3000 and they're super comfy too.

Never liked full quill ostrich, but smooth is good looking stuff. Too bad it's hard to find.

It is hard to find made in usa boots / smooth ostrich. However these are and came from Cavendars @ San Pedro/410.
