Rowdy Smooth
Week 12. I had to be outside for a bit on this cold, rainy morning. I forgot to grab a jacket, but my feet were warm and comfortable. The boots are looking not too bad even if I say so myself 😁. The Rowdy leather is super thirsty and absorbs moisture. The water drops leave bumps on the leather after a few minutes. These boots have moderately conditioned. I applied Obenaufs oil once and regularly use Lincoln Neutral wax to shine them up. It indicates to me that this leather needs to be treated more heavily and consistently for sustained use in wet conditions.
