How to Clean Cowboy Boots?

 
 
Wed 14 Nov, 2012 11:54 pm
Hello Friends,

Finding a pleasant pair of leather cowboy boots that you can afford, that fits perfectly and looks good is an achievement. However, to clean the shoes, is a bit difficult for me. I want to know about its cleaning and maintenance.


Thanks and Regards,
Aaron Carlow

@Aaron Carlow,
First you must learn how to wrangle your cowboy.

@Aaron Carlow,
Same as leather shoes. If they're muddy, rinse them off quickly with running water. Do it quickly with a wet brush because you don't want to soak the leather. If they're not muddy, skip that step and use saddle soap on a dauber brush. Make the lather thin and wet, and again, work quickly. Wipe the moisture off right away. Now, apply more saddle soap, but make it a thick mixture of saddle soap and water and put it on thickly. Saddle soap has a soluble oil, and you don't want to wash the final application off. Do wipe it off, though, and then give them a quick brusishing with the buffer brush. This will spread any wetness, and hasten the drying process.

If you add a shoe lotion or shoe polish, be sure to wait till they're dry.

I like using lexol oil on all my cowboy boots.

@Ticomaya,
Is it good enough I should look for it? Is it used after cleaning and between cleanings?

@roger,
Yes, and yes. Can be found in tack or shoe stores. Good stuff. Good for any leather (not suede).

@Ticomaya,
I'll keep an eye out for a smaller bottle.

@Aaron Carlow,
Get some leather cleaner or mild dishwashing soap and warm water.
Use a dauber brush or toothbrush to clean the whole boot.
Use a damp cloth or rag to remove any excess cleaner.

@Aaron Carlow,
Leather chaps are perfect for cowboys. They not only provide protection while riding horses but also give a classic Western look. Leather chaps come in various styles and designs to suit different preferences.

To clean leather chaps, you should start by removing any dirt or debris with a soft brush or cloth. Then, mix warm water with mild soap and use a sponge to gently clean the surface of the chaps. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the leather.
