As you might know, leather bags, boots, coats should be conditioned every 6 months to once a year. Every time I would condition my lighter bags, they would darken significantly. So I’ve come up with a formula that works perfectly all while lessening the darkening of the leather. If your bag is super dry it might darken slightly, but I have found this to be very minimal on all the bags I’ve tested. Ingredients: Neatsfoot oil, Cocoa Butter, Sweet almond oil, lanolin and Beeswax Not only will this formula soften your leather but it will protect it from moisture and mold. Fantastic Formula!
