how often are you planning on wearing them and under what kind of conditions? |
I only have about a weeks worth of wear on my 1k's since i just picked them up so I'm guessing I wont be needing any treatment anytime soon. Just been looking around for future reference but I will try a bit of mink oil when the time comes and see how that goes
I'm going try to wear mine as often as i can on non rainy days through spring and fall. Definitely not in the winter as the weather conditions are harsh here in Calgary.
Actually thinking about picking up a pair of red wing iron rangers for the winter since it's got a rubber sole, i would imagine it would offer more grip. Anyone have experiences with those in snow?
EDIT: btw where'd you get your shoe tree and how much
