Good day, all! This is my annual conditioning of the Hides of the Beast. I used Skidmore's Leather Cream which uses natural oils and beeswax.

Anyone else conditions their leather patches, and, if so, what do you use?

@nephellim Thanks for posting! Your patches look lovely. I've never treated any of mine, but your look nice.

@seawolf, thanks! There's definitely a lot of great patches posted in this thread!

@nephellim Who made the belt? Love the skull and crossbones. ‍️

nephellim

@goosehd, it was made by Tom Sanderson of Hawkmoth Leather. https://www.hawkmothleather.co.uk

His works are incredible! Really love this Memento Mori belt he made. It has aged incredibly well and has developed a great patina thus far.

Go For Chill

One of my favorites. The Dia De Los Muertos last year from N&F.

This is my first pair of Iron Hearts…I think I treated the patch once after the first wash with Bicks 4…haven’t treated it since.

Edit: Now fully dry post wash…think I’ll give it another treatment.

The “Flower of Carnage” Japanese sheepskin leather patch on the N&F MIJ6 Type III has got to be one of my all time favorites.
