Cleaning restoring leather boots .

[sardine]

Anyone know if its possible to clean this leather back to original or get it all one colour ?

Has to be done for zero cost as they are destined for the charity shop. In this condition they are binners.

Just use brown polish on them, somebody will want them.

Dubbin is the only way forward !

Clean well with warm soapy water, stuff with newspaper and allow to dry.

Then with a cloth and a finger rub in a clear show polish, keep in a warm place and repeat untill leather is soft.
Then with a decent brown boot polish, a cloth and fingeers rub it in untill a even shade. Then bug hard with a brush.

If any of you lot use Kiwi boot and shoe polish, stock up now. They are pulling out of the UK market and shortly the stuff will be unobtanium. Unless you want to pay postage, from New Zealand.

Kiwi shoe polish to disappear from UK shelves but will still be available online

The military and veteran community have reacted to Kiwi shoe polish UK exit, as the firm confirms withdrawal.

Wash with saddle soap, dry naturally, apply your wax / dubbin / leather conditioner of choice.
