I recently purchased a black pair of leather steel toed boots and work in a mine environment, mostly in an office but with several hours out in the pit near the blast holes where there will be some fine grain sand from drilling.
How can I make these 90 dollar boots last long?
How to extend the longetivity of steel toed boots?
Use neatsfoot oil on the leather to keep it soft and prevent cracking. Apply a generous amount to clean dry leather and let it soak in as much as the leather will allow. Let the boots set overnight and in the morning wipe with a dry cloth.
Be sure to use genuine 100% pure Neatfoots oil and not a petroleum or silicone oil. Petroleum oil products and Neatsfoot oils diluted with petroleum are actually bad for leather.
Reply:Sorry, but the same thought came to my mind. Don't wear them. Hey. listen, you need good boots and they're gonna cost.
Reply:do not wear them, dubbing is good if you have to wear them,
Reply:What about using some boot covers whenever you go into the pit? I have seen many types link below are just couple.
