Hey man! Love the video :) Can be a good idea to only really rarely clean your boots like that. Like your skin, the leather is full of oils, and everytime you immerse them in water and use a soap-y solution, you're washing all those oils out of the leather. For a small amount of mud/dirt like that, it's good to just get a really stiff brush and go to town, that way you're keeping all the oils in and the leather will last a lot longer. If you have to wash your boots with soap then it's a good idea to use some conditioner/oil/dubbin to replenish the oils in the leather :)
Yes!!! I did have a whole bit in about how that was the first time I’d ever ‘cleaned’ them and to avoid over cleaning but I edited it out as the video was already cracking on for being far too long 😅 Might make a whole video about proper boot care to redeem myself ;) Thanks for watching, and for highlighting the natural resilience of good leather :)
A bit late with this question, but will the protector spray stain white shoes? To be more specific, I recently bought new white Converse hi top shoes and would the protector spray stain the fabric and rubber soles?
I can’t see why it would? The cotton bag I tested it on didn’t change in appearance and I’m sure I’ve seen white shoes in attirecares marketing!! Obviously I can’t conclusively say though, so maybe best to do a small, subtle test patch on the shoe if you’re not sure before doing the whole thing :)
Did u wash the cotton bag after the ketchup and oil had dried in?? I wonder did it help to keep the products from penetrating to far into the fabric??? I’ve got some lovely cream axel arigato jumpers that I’m scared to wear out incase I spill something on them after a few beers 😢😂

Very thorough review Sam. Great job man. Love the fact they have fragrances in their solutions. Loving the brand already.
Yeah! The ‘Bibbona’ fragrance is my favourite I think! Thanks for watching man!
Just got the crease release from AC and wasn't sure if I was doing it right so I typed it into RUclips... and what do you know, it's the Goral guy!
Yes to all the wine videos please 👍
Noted!! Thinking of a podcast style video thing where I open a bottle of wine with a nice person and we talk about clothes and wine. 🤷♂️
