Thank you very much for this comprehensive answer I appreciate it.

Great stuff! I will take a look!

I see! Many thanks for your input! If I do fill the crack and will condition will the leather under the cracks that is healthy be conditioned or it will be stopped by the filler?

Thank you for the input Seb! Yes, what has occurred cannot be reversed. However, won't the leather that hasn't cracked in that area be strengthened by conditioner and thus not crack like the leather that has? That is what I was thinking about doing. Does this sort of repair hold up over time?

Hey gang! I would like to know of all the various possibilities one can use to restore the leather in the area where the leather is cracking. I was thinking about something like moisturising then applying some product that would fill in the cracks and then keep on top of moisturising so that it...

Update willing to sell gift card worth 800GBP for 500GBP

If anyone is having second thoughts about their multi stripe pants and vest I will purchase ASAP. I need a size 34-36 in the pants and a 38-40 in the vest. The items need to be new or worn once. I can buy the DB too.

Would be interested in finding out if any member here could advise a ready-made boot tree for a 1950s engineer boot or a place that could custom make a boot tree for the boots. Does anyone know anything that could help?
