          Yell me down, but i think olive oil has the nicest result so far.

              Oil has been applied, just waiting for it to soak in, then I'll take a photo.

                    Feck, I'm going to have to get into the olive oil business…....We do have an olive tree in the garden, but only got 6 olives off it this year.......

                        Well, to give us an objective impression, you should also describe the odour of all leather pieces 😉 Olive and Mustang are super nice.

                            How more objective can I be than giving you a photo with no comment?

                            And subjective is subjective - depends what you want to achieve.  Personally I think it is remarkable that the mustang paste does not alter the original colour…..Not saying that is what I like, just think it is remarkable......

                              Natural for the win. I might have to go with Kiya on this and not treat any of my leathers…

                                  Was thinking the same… And not buying any new leathers soon (normally)... Aaah well!..  🙂

                                    I haven't been oiling my Samurai belt yet as I love the natural colour right now. But then, it has a light tan out of the factory. My Obbigood or Pike Brothers belt that came really raw, grainy and light coloured needed treatment. Still, I think I'll oil my W001 someday, but not yet.

                                          Will do.  I walk past it everyday, and it looks pretty similar to me.  But pics tomorrow…..
