Has anyone used the Obenauf's Heavy Duty Leather Preservative on the shirt? Any pointers on how and how much to apply?

I will get better pictures when I have good light and it’s completely dried.

Oh man awesome @goosehd cant wait to see it!!!

Just got home from a day wearing it out. Has anyone who has been complimented on this shirt actually heard “nice shirt”? Haha. I honestly only ever hear “nice jacket” and that speaks to how heavy duty this thing is
-
@marco23d the very first time I wore it out of the house, I got a “that is an awesome leather western shirt”. I was actually surprised, but he was just echoing my own internal dialogue. Hahaha.

Maybe Giuli thought he was somewhere in Texas, but it ended up being just Hamburg and our crappy construction site in front of the store... but it was cool for the photo shoot. A horse would have been good too.
Love the colour and contrast of Giuli PR is that just natural wear or has it been conditioned?
-
@goosehd is it dry yet?
-
Nice! Love to read about these projects on this particular shirt! Stoked

@goosehd here's what I determined after a whole bunch of experiments. I think oil only is best for this particular leather. Anything with beeswax or vaseline type stuff is going to make the leather rubbery. This tanning formula is really odd to me. I've handled over 50 leather jackets and I still can't figure it out. I think it's a veg tanned CXL combo or is veg tanned with thick top coat.
I gave my shirt another hand wash but this time didn't do any conditioner, and so far it's the softest it's ever been. Maybe it's just a combo of all the wears and work so far, but I think it's more about the conditioner unnecessarily adding more to the top coat. think this leather needs to breath and get exposed to the elements to really come to life.

I’m still on the road working, but my Pale Rider was delivered. I’m just wondering if anyone has paired theirs with white jeans? If so, how does it look?

@Vaperfavour1313 from snake oil provisions

@marco23d looks awesome white those white jeans! Amazing shirt
-
Talking about oils, I’ve just had a golden shower from my brake reservoir. Good way to tell you it’s leaking
-
@louisbosco Ouch. DOT4 or DOT5?
-
This is an improvement, shirt looks beautiful @louisbosco
