Leather conditioner

[hogan]

What are you guys using to condition your leather holsters?

I use Kiwi clear paste shoe wax. Found nothing better.

If its a quality holster, the less you do to it the better.

Nothing on the holster, absolutely. The belt on mine get Bick Conditioner. Also my and wifes alligator, lizard, horse hide even my riding chaps and snake belts and boots, hand bags,everything, motorcycle pants and jackets, everything gets bick poured on using my hand or tee shirt left overs after its dry.. Doesnt change color, even a pair of her high heels one snowy night.
All other heavy stuff get Neatsfoot OIL, they have 2 kinds i use that oil for more than 50 years, grandpa told me so.

Interesting question. There is lots of stuff on the market for leather care. I've never used a drop of anything on any holster.

WAYNO.

The reason for my question is I just received a new holster from Falco. On the packaging it says "regularly impregnate the leather".
Now in my neighborhood, that sounds a bit kinky

If you use one of the "leather conditioners" you can easily end up with a
holster that is far too soft. It then does not maintain its shape.

I use a little bit of paraffin wax. A light coat, gently heated until it
. . . just . . . melts, will go into the leather, water-proof it, yet not
soften it.

Has worked well for me.

I've always used Kiwi shoe polish in black or brown. I bought a horsehide IWB holster from Lobo and he said to use Kiwi natural shoe polish. I rarely have to use anything on my holsters.

Extra virgin olive oil on boots, tack and belts. I use it sparingly on holsters.

Mineral oil

Lately I have been using my own concoction of bees wax and mineral oil. I am liking it a lot.
