Hey you sons of Badgers, if you have a pair of older Sperrys and you also have some mink oil... Go and get them. They are thirsty.
The shoe pictured on the left after a nice coat of mink oil. The one pictured on the right is parched. These Sperrys are about 5 years old and have never been conditioned.
You can see the dryness in the leather on the right and the lustre in the one on the left.
Conditioned...
Not conditioned...
I took a toothbrush and removed the material that collects between the outsole and the upper what looked to be lint.
All done and ready to take on a nice patina.
