Color, texture, grain, and pattern variation can be expected from piece to piece. Store Your Boots Store your boots in a dry and dark place. Alternate boot-wearing days to let boots properly dry out. Ideally, store with tissue, newspaper, or a cedar shoe tree that does not stretch the leather. These methods above will help minimize moisture and extend the life of your boots. How To Clean Brush dirt off after every wear with a horsehair brush; use a damp cloth if necessary. Wipe residue with a damp cloth, dry, and brush/buff. Condition While boots are still damp, lightly apply conditioner over the entire boot, ideally with fingers, but you can use a brush or cloth. Let the conditioner dry and then buff with a horsehair brush. Condition 3-4 times per year (or as needed). Bison’s natural oils protect your pair from drying out, so they don’t need consistent conditioning. In fact, we encourage you not to over-condition them, as that could lead to damaging the finish. For conditioner, we suggest our Basics Care Kit or the Bickmore’s Bick 4 conditioner. Polish & Shine Polishing will leave the boots with a glossy finish. We suggest avoiding colored polishes since they can alter the color of your boots. After your boots have dried, apply a small amount of wax-based polish to all the areas you wish to shine. Let the polish dry and then brush off the boot with a soft cloth. Buff with a horsehair brush to the desired level of shine. For polish, we suggest the included polish in our Basics Care Kit. Lincoln wax polish (neutral) and Allen Edmonds spray shine are also great options.
