I just got my first pair of thorogood boots and was wanting to know what should I use to break in and condition the leather or just wax and break in ?? Also, I’d love to keep the natural look of the leather as much as possible if possible at all, everything I’ve researched either darkened more then I wanted or left a campfire smell. Thank you.

As a cobbler of over 25yrs, I totally agree with your methods. Too many people don't know you need to remove/rinse saddle soap residue. It builds up attracting dirt and dust in the creases which acts like sandpaper. It's also caustic which can change the leathers ph, making it dry and brittle. I don't use the spoon method on the soles as I have other methods to achieve similar results but overall an excellent video!

Thank you for posting this informative video. Many years ago I ruined a pair of shoes, trying to use Saddle soap. I didn't know what I was doing and the instructions was not clear to me. Now I have a better understanding.

Seeing thorogoods in this good of a condition reminds me why I loved mine so much. Going to try this on an old pair. Thank you sir

Very impressed with how the sole turned out.

I was with you all the way, minus the meticulous sole cleaning. The saddle soap and tooth brush is it. If it does not want to come off, so be it. Everyone has their favorites for moisturizing. I have some cold weather boots that get mink oil. My most of the year work boots get Bick 4. I just use a cotton worn out t-shirt in place of the nice shop towels. You put the neutral polishing cream on at the end. That is a neat touch. Might try that. Good video. Appreciate the work.

@misssophie6515

I think once they are conditioned again it is not that big of a deal, but in the moment where the soap goes on, the leather is temporarily stripped of the oils it needs and also all leather is treated acidic when it is tanned and leather soaps are alkaline, so it should be done as little as possible.

Hard to believe how many steps to absolute beauty and utter perfection!Our Hands are so incredibly sensitive and intricate,made for all sorts of duties,better than tools in some situations!

My favorite “work” shoe is a pair of LL Bean loafers. Obviously my work is not that hard on the shoes. But still, I clean and treat them regularly. Because of that defects like house paint, caulk and the glues have a hard time sticking and are a breeze to clean off. I treat the inside of the leather too. Had them for decades and the soles have yet to wear through. I also wear the newer cloth type Athletic shoes with a padded insert. These are regularly thrown in the washer and come out looking new again. My real Frye work boots disappeared twenty years ago and were rediscovered recently while emptying out my sisters home. My nephews confessed to hiding them during a visit. Now, cleaned and treated very similarly to your work in the video, we are back in business. Thanks for the video.

Don't get your boots wet?! Oh, boo hoo! My boots have taken that for decades and they still keep ticking! I just examined a pair of forty year old boots I recently had resoled. some of the welting has broken away That may just be deteriorated leather rather than inadequate repair (the midsoles were replaced too). But heck! if they have actually WORN OUT, I can throw them away in good conscience. But they are still proof against weather as I'm out walking ----so far anyway.

Great leather! You are doing it right, nice video. The only remark I have is to use a softer brush to clean the dry mud. And maybe use Fiebing’s mink oil to condition and waterproof the leather.

Just went and did this to my boots with Bick 4 and neutral luster I got at boot barn. The few bucks I spent made my beat up Thorogoods look better than ever. And the luster on the toe and counter is a really nice touch!

I've used saddle soap on a leather jacket I had in high school. That stuff is amazing at conditioning and keeping leather soft. I still have the jacket 37 years later. And it's as good as it was back then

Another excellent way to get the crepe soles clean I've found is with Magic Erasers. You have to apply a fair amount of pressure to get the foam into the crevices but it does an amazing job of getting them clean and white without removing a ton of material.

Great results! Although I would not dry scrub boots with a firm nylon bristle brush. Use Murphy's Oil Soap, warm water, and a horse hair brush. Saddle Soap contains wax which inhibits absorption of leather conditioner. Also, wait 24 hours after washing boots to thoroughly dry before conditioning. Laces can also be washed and hung up to air dry.

Yup! Done this many times. Thanx for this great tutorial

What a lesson in rejuvenation of that 🥾.great job. Thanks.

I use a nylon brush wheel on my Makita impact drill for the soles, gets them looking brand new white, then a use a scrubber and clean them in the shower using Palmolive dish soap. Comes out looking very good, soap tends to dry the boot out a bit,nothing a little mink oil can’t fix. Works great for a work boot

I used this with two exceptions. 1. I used a light, rubber suede eraser on the sole. 2. Add a light coat of chalk (white teachers chalk) with a honed point to the stitching. Basically light rub over the stitch. They look new. Leather Milk is great.

Thanks for the video! My Thorogoods look identical to those right now. Im def gonna try cleaning them using your instructions

Trabalho excepcional!!!!

After 40 + years in mud and dirt, I still carry a scrub brush in the back of my PU to knock off the every day crap off the boots. The dirt as it dries doesn’t pull the oil out off the boot body and prolongs the life and dries better.

So satisfying to watch

Great video! You have a new subscriber, been looking for a good cleaning video for my own boots.

My sincere compliments on your video. In my lifetime I have worked for several different boot manufacturers (I am currently a sales rep for Thorogood in the Western US) and over that time I have preached boot “maintenance” like this for years. If people would take a few minutes every couple of months to perform some cleanup of their boots (as in your video) they would save a fortune by not having to replace their boots so often. By the way, assuming we did our job at the factory correctly one doesn’t need to worry about sole separation on these boots. The way the soles are removed when worn out and replaced is to be ground/cut off. Essentially, unless we make a mistake at our factory (we are all human so it can happen) the soles “ain’t coming off.” Again, a very well done presentation! I will certainly be sharing with my accounts and when appropriate their customers.

Ботинки шикарные ! Плюс средства для ухода и мастер👍👍👍!!!

I searched for this. Got a real messed up pair of Redwing boots and a slightly abused pair of Dan Post boots. Your process will definitely put them back into play!

Beautiful results

"Goop" hand cleaner works great for removing spots of grease from boots. It's made of lanolin, so won't damage them.

PLEASE PLEASE MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS, THIS IS SO SO GOOD

Great job! 👍🏻 But I wouldn't do the last step (polishing), as I do prefer matte finish.

Indeed. There’s something strangely satisfying in watching this restorative process.
