Hello everyone!
I hope I've put this in the correct category
Anyway, Im looking for some advice regarding boot care.
I have a pair of Lowa GTX mountain boots.
I normally just apply kiwi black polish before putting them away.
However Ive noticed some light cracking in the leather and the toe seems to always be scuffed backed to grey after each trip,
Should I be applying something else?
Also, How should i clean the inside GTX part of the boot?
I have recently bought some 2nd hand Altberg defenders in MOD brown.
They are slightly too big in the right boot with normal socks.
I am planning on buying issue socks and new insoles - recommendations?
Should i purchase the original or extreme leder gris in brown or clear?
Does anyone have any recommendations for brushes for cleaning, applying polish/wax, buffing?
Apologies for the naivety of the topic
many thanks
