All about Cowboy Boots

 
  You have searched the entire online market just to find the perfect boys cowboy boots for your little one. Now that he is already wearing them, you cannot help but feel overjoyed. Not only do they look great on his little feet, you were also able to find a pair that you know will last a long time because it is made with the highest quality materials.

However, it is important to remember that cowboy boots, even those that come from topnotch names in the boot industry like Twisted X, Harley Davidson, and John Deere boots, require special care and attention. Proper care revolves around proper cleaning, conditioning, polishing, and protecting, and you need to start taking care of these boots by cleaning them the right way. To help you do just that, here are a couple of tips to follow.

Clean boots every after use

This is the rule of the thumb. Every after your kid is done wearing these shoes, it is necessary to do spot cleaning to get loose dirt and grime off the boot’s surface. This is as easy as wiping a damp cloth on the surface of the boots to get rid of dirt before it seeps into the material and becomes more stubborn to remove.

Do weekly cleaning and polishing

Schedule one day every week when you will be doing a more thorough cleaning of the boots. For dirt that has not been removed, try wiping it gently with a wet cloth. If this does not work, make use of leather oil and apply a small amount on the damp cloth to help remove the ingrained dirt. It is also a wise idea to do the polishing at this time to give the boots that extra shine that your kid would surely love. Be sure to use only a polishing cream made specifically for cowboy leather boots and a soft boot shine cloth. Apply the cream using even gentle strokes.

Apply leather conditioner every six months

Twice a year, do not forget to apply leather conditioner on the boots to keep them from drying out, flaking, or splitting. Doing so will also keep the material soft and supple. Ideally, you should buy the leather conditioner from the same store you bought the boots. Also, when applying this solution, you need to wait for the boots to dry completely first. Allow the boots to dry naturally and never use heat to speed up the drying process, as excessive heat can cause leather to deteriorate. Follow instructions carefully on how to apply leather conditioner.

Use a water protector sealant once a year

Most cowboy boots, especially those that come from topnotch brands, already come with a water protector sealant. However, it would still be best if you apply a water protector solution on your kids cowboy boots once a year. Use only of a solution that is made specifically for leather.

Cleaning your kid’s cowboy boots is very easy and simple. Just remember that the four basic aspects of cowboy boot care involve cleaning, conditioning, polishing and protecting.
