By all means avoid mink oil. It's really awful stuff. I just scored an old leather valise that I will use as a camera case. The leather is in good shape but somewhat dry, so Pecard's is what I will use on it.

Our own Fishmeok could make one for you I bet,...or something mighty danged close.

The shoes are cool too.

Mattel Creepy Crawlers. Was such an awesome system.
