My boots generally get the shit kicked out of them. They get covered in mortar and cement and block dust. Then get romped through the mud, and just generally abused. Every single year the leather cracks so bad that I can see my socks through them and keeping the wet out isn't even an option any more.
So I ordered next years boots, they are the same as always. Carolina's with the comfortable sole and all leather construction. But do you think if I treated them with motor oil or Vaseline or some type of petroleum they would hold up better? Usually I have enough time to spray them off after work, but I don't want to spend every night cleaning and polishing them, any one have some tricks for keep your boots soft and waterproof?
