Call me a traditionalist, but I tend to go with the "old standbys" of
leather care: saddle soap and Lexol. Saddle soap is great for cleaning,
and I've seen Lexol do the most amazing things on dried leather belting
and such. Some very respected, skilled and trustworthy tack shop people in
my area swear by Lexol.
