That’s not my picture but I have one identical to it. It’s the shit and cost nothing compared to the commercially available ones. Even bought my wife a new hair blower (I used her old one) so scored 2x.

don't use hot air, it will destroy the leather way faster than just air.

Oh no that’s why I stole her blower cause it had the “air” only setting on it. But I go through my uniform boots in about 6 months cause the soles go bare or fall apart so the leather is the least of my worries but I usually give them a good soak with Neets Foot Oil every couple weeks to keep them pliable.

I would rather have to saddle soap my boots more often than walk around with wet feet because the boots didn't have enough time to dry.

Have you ever used this ? it's great on smooth leather and much better than saddle soap.

Another thing I learned while surveying is to buy a second pair if you find a boot you really like. W 2 pair you can wear one pair every other day. That let's them dry out for more than 24 hrs and keeps both of them dryer/fresher of sweat or water soaked than drying one pair overnight.
W the alternating 2 pair, the boots will last a lot longer than just buying another boot when the single pair is shot.

I used to use mink oil. Always kept my feet dry.

I imagine it would work well if you put it on your feet

I use SnoSeal and a heat gun to help it soak in better. I usually do four coats and then go across the toe with KG's Toe Guard.

I always buy two pair of boots too....I find some I like and by the time I need another pair, they've stopped making them.

I've used a hair dryer and the oven on low, one @ a time about 5 mins. I've also just let the cleaned boots sit in the sun on a hot day before waxing them. W new boots I treat them twice, wait a few hours or the next day for the second rub. When the boots finally need another coat I clean them well. Wash/scrub all the dirt/mud off the leather and use toothbrushes to get the dirt out of all of the seams and where the leather meets the welt. Once they're dry and heated they will soak up the wax and they look brand new again after wiping the excess off.

Damped sway control... Hmm.. if instead of a shock they used a damper, they may have been on to something. (Sway bar that doesn't limit travel) that may not work as well as I just thought it may though.
