KangarooUpdated 4 months ago

We find that treating kangaroo as any other bovine leather is best. We recommend using a neutral conditioner like Venetian Leather Balm and Saphir Renovateur. You do not need to condition or treat the leather brand new. We condition the leather after production at our warehouse and typically again before shipping. 


You can use a damp microfiber cloth (or an old 100% cotton t-shirt) to remove dust, dirt, gunk, or other debris from the upper leather. Remember to clean the welts; a damp Q-tip can remove stuck-on grime on the welts. After letting the leather dry, apply a neutral conditioner, e.g., Venetian Leather Balm or Saphir Renovateur. Second, apply an even layer over the uppers using a new microfiber cloth or an old t-shirt. Give each boot a good few minutes to let the conditioner soak in before you start vigorously brushing the leather for two to three minutes per shoe.
