    One of my fondest memories of my Dad comes from the wonderful smell of him polishing his boots and showing me how to do the same. My children say the same about me, so this channel just warms my heart. I need to order some conditioners, creams, because all I have been doing is polishing......but not anymore. Thanks for sharing your passion with us!

Easy stuff, just brush them quickly after each use, and hydrate once a month. My Iron Rangers look just like these at the end, that gentle shine. I love that look. Thanks for another great video!

I massaged them inside and out with coconut oil over 5 days and now they look and feel soft and supple as when I got them! I have Bick 4 that I use on my cowboy boots and they look good after I use it but it just doesn't seem to last very long; think I might try coconut oil on them also.

I e-mailed the Potter and Sons contact e-mail on their website with a few questions and Trenton replied personally and promptly. I bought all of the supplies from them to do this and you should too! Competitive pricing, prompt shipping and courteous professional advice. Just to clarify, if you have brown chrome leather Thursday boots, like these Captains or the similar President boot, Trenton clarified with me that he used Saphir Bordeaux color polish on the upper and tobacco on the heel block. Buy from them and keep supporting the channel!
