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…

Too late mate…you already treated your Tricker's

[Seul]

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.

checking in on this as it's been alittle over a month since i've seen any movement.

if lighting permits tommorow, updates please & thank you.

[Giles]

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

[Giles]

Probably a lot, but it's feckin difficult to take photos of stuff that's in Gosport when I am in SE Asia…......

[Max Power]

Oh, my bad. I was just browsing through the last post where it said tomorrow, that got me confused.

Time to find G a doppelganger

[Giles]

3.5 months in…..

[Finn666]

thanks a lot for the update G.
I have to say that I like the olive oil one the best…right after that, is the "none" sample!
how many times have you applied the oil now?

[Giles]

Can't remember, but every time I have, I have updated this thread….3 or 4 I think
