路hey guys,
I've never really given much thought to maintaining leather straps - when they went kaput after about 2 years of use, I just changed them.
But now that I've been using those custom short straps, it doesn't make sense financially to keep changing straps. Someone told me that I should be using some leather conditioners / creams to keep the leather supple so they'd last longer, but when I tried googling, there was a bewildering range of options (mostly for shoes) which left me confused.
So I thought I'd ask you guys:
1. What do you guys do? Do you maintain your watch straps?
2. If you do, what products have you used before, and how were the results?
3. Should I use different cleaners / conditioners for different straps - eg. for croc vs ostrich vs calf?
Thanks!
