CXL is designed to be beat up/worn hard. You’ll forget about the color inconsistencies in no time.The postman delivered these gently used CXL service boots today. My first pair in the 2030 last. They fit great and I like the shape of the boot. Now there is a slight small dark discoloration of the leather on the right side of the boot. Its darker as if maybe it got something on it. I used a soft brush and saddle soap on it very gently View attachment 1643138 View attachment 1643139 View attachment 1643140 which seemed to improve it slightly. Not sure if I should try anything else. Its not that noticeable in normal light. I know this natural CXL will patina over time. Any suggestions are appreciated
Also, every time I start to pamper my footwear I remind myself what is actually on the sidewalk that I’m waking on ?
[whispers] hint: it’s ?
