Clinch Boots Overdyed Horsebutt: Conditioning Tips??

[Cortello Va Larad]

Hello!

I am the happy recent owner of a pair of second-hand Clinch Engineer boots in Black Overdyes Horsebutt.

I had just wanted to ask the community if anyone has conditioning tips for this particular leather.

I know that the Horsebutt which Clinch has been described as similar to Shell Cordovan. I have a pair of Shell Cordovan boots and am familiar with how they’re maintained, but I’m not sure if their Horsebutt requires different maintenance.

Looking for tips
Thanks!

Leave them the hell alone for a few years, then hit them with bick 4.

Nice pick up!

It's like every leather. Apply conditioner to a small area that's normally hidden and see how it looks. I use Venetian on all my horse leathers including shell. I've used Saphir too but don't like how it shines the leather.
