Hey Crane's what is your policy on care for roughout cxl?
Other input also appreciated
This is Blackrock Leather 'n' rich and it seemed to work fairly well. The after photos are after one pass with the cleaner.
What kind of insoles are y'all using in these? I picked up some dr scholl's "work boot" but I'm not really a fan for reasons I can't quite put into words.
They'll darken a bit but that settles down and goes pretty much away after a few days or so. Just don't overdo the oiling. Wipe them down with an oily rag, let them sit for a few minutes and then wipe off the excess. I do mine in sections so it's easier to get an even coat on them. You might see a spot or two that appears darker when you oil them the first few times. Those are dry spots and after a few treatments that evens out as well.
Woof. Let's dial back the tension and put some of that work boot related wisdom to use. What's up with the 1k boot in EEE? Am I going to be swimming in it? If I have to choose, as a Brannock 10E, will I have more luck in D's or EEE's?

Copped a pair of Montgomerys in black. Feels more comfortable than the original W1K. In terms of the leather, according to a Wolverine representative it's Horween leather, but I compared the leather with the original W1K, this feels more shiny and PVC-ish.
Anyway, what should I use for this boots? Is the Heavy Duty LP sufficient?
I actually want, the Morley, is still in stock with plenty of sizes. So I got it for $260 with tax and shipping, which is $140 off what I could get from most out-of-state-free-shipping places, and still $80-100 cheaper than a certain place I could call up for a deal but might not have them in stock right now. Of course, lets see what quality of shoe I get... but if it sucks, or the fit sucks, they have a great return policy, and since there's a Nordstrom within driving distance I can do an exchange there.
Anyway, looking forward to these, I've been on the fence for this shoe for a while, and it was basically a waiting game to see if it popped up on a DOTD
-So how often do you oil like this?
-Also, lets say I get it very dirty and want to clean off before oiling, how do you recommend cleaning?
-Lastly, why do you use Filson Oil (http://www.filson.com/products/boot-oil.55101.html) over the Wolverine recommended neatsfoot oil?
Context: I live in California with not much rain, and plan to wear these at least every other day.
I applied a coat of oil and waited a few days and was about to apply LP when I noticed this. After the first treatment of oil I did notice a couple spots; nothing that would bother me, but wondering if I should apply another round of oil first or move onto the LP. Moving forward, what is the protocal of using oil vs LP?
