I use mink oil to do the same thing to my boots and it works fairly well. Thanks for the video Josh, I know a lot of people needed to see this. I've seen people trying to put leather cream on their faux leather finish MV9s and it's just gross.
You should do a how to clean series of videos, showing how to clean/care for synthetic and leather boots. And the do's and dont's of cleaning I struggle gettting mud out of the stiching in my boots if you could help that would be good. Keep up the good work josh!
I've been using my Premiers for almost 3 months now. For maintenance, I use dubbin with a soft shoe brush. After the dubbin is worked in, I let it rest for 24 hours and dry it off with paper towels. The shoes perform and look great!
Ive been doing this to my premiers ever since august 2013 Yet ive been applying small amounts of glove conditioner for baseball gloves. It works WONDERS and definately softens up the leather after i let it sit for about ten minutes and then towell dry it
To whom it may concern: if your leather boots have not been used in a while and are sitting around, you should apply a small amount to the cleats about once a month. You don't need to apply it like you would if you were using them often but just enough to keep them soft for the start of the season. I do this to every shoe that is leather while my outdoor season is not going. So since October to now I have applied leather cream 4 times.
Thanks for your videos, very helpful! I've always been taught that one should put on leather cream even before first use. The main theory behind it, I believe, is to break in the shoe a bit better, and to moisturize it so it doesn't damage that quickly on dry soil. What's your opinion?
I have a question: Did you also applied the leather cream into both the outside and inside nike swoosh part? Great reviews by the way, I'm hoping to see later a comparison between the predator instinct and the predator absolion.
Hey Josh! You should do a video talking about the new Adidas 99 gram boot coming out in 2015! There might not be enough information about it right now, but possibly in the future :) love your vids!
I've been playing with my $30 umbro diamondback leather cleats for ten years in the snows, rains, summer heats, the older the better they feel. Never polished them. I should start now. It's hard to find real leather cleats now or they are very expensive.
Hey josh, How About: how to know whether a certain soccer shoe is good or not when buying one , it's quality if you will, by stating the factors that make a good show and a bad show perhaps, and thank you
For those asking about synthetic boots just use a cloth and wipe them with warm soapy water and maybe an old toothbrush to get in all the nooks and crannys.
hello i have ace 15.1 leather boots i have questions should i use leather cream on it? how often should i apply it? will any kind of leather cream will work? plz reply plzzzzzzzzzz👏
Take a stud wrench, lay it over the stud, twist. Only thing you have to watch is not to over-tighten them as you may break the stud, just make sure they're secure :)
Hi ***** , do you need to do this for the nike timpo legacies? and also if you have never applied leather cream on a leather boot, is it possible for the leather to have cracks and rips? After how long?
There is no maintenance needed for the NikeSkin. It is synthetic. The only thing you should do with NikeSkin is making it clean by removing sand and mud ;)
I have high arches, and when I play I get a lot of pain on the bottom of my heal, and front of my foot. What boots are the most comfortable for your feet?
Josh, I have some mr minnit branded leather conditioner to use with my legend 4's. The conditioner is runny and I don't quite get the same shiny affect.mon the bottle it says that it takes care of leather shoes and garments. Is it okay or do I need to buy sone of yours. Please. P.s I live in Australia
I have a type of leather oil that does the same thing but it's meant for baseball mitts. Could I use that on a pair of natural leather shoes like the legend 6
is it neatsfoot oil? u should not be using that. neatsfoot is also made from cow hooved and shins, animal material so it speeds up oxidation of leather. i added them to my tiempo legend vi and it kinda had more wrinkle after.
Gabe A. Did you watch the video? you should only be using small amounts of leather cream and rubbing it in to the boot until there is nothing left of the surface. There shouldn't be anything to wipe away.
would any leather product work or does it have to be formulated for soccer cleats? I have some survivor brand leather "lube" and it says it's for premium leathers to water proof, protect and keep it soft. as well as a can of a different type of leather treatment called mink oil. would that be ok? would one be better than that other?
you're the man Josh. thank you for always answering my dumb questions 😊. I actually really enjoy being more involved in caring for my cleats than with synthetics as it's similar to cleaning and lubing my firearms in the sense that it's relaxing and fulfilling in a weird way lol
Hey Josh, my friend has some tiempos and as you know tiempos have ACC he applied the leather creme and he thinks it affected the ACC does it affect the ACC?
+Soccer Reviews For You I just remembered once I got home and had a look at them, getting a bit ragged want to keep them good as I can as I can't find another pair anywhere! Comfiest football boots I've ever worn
Never thought I’d see Josh’s old videos again, this brings me back!
Hey Josh, two questions. One, how often should I do this? and two, how should I clean leather cleats without having them absorb a lot of water?
A trick : you can watch movies on InstaFlixxer. Been using it for watching loads of movies these days.
@Titan Barrett definitely, been watching on InstaFlixxer for years myself :)
@Titan Barrett yea, I have been using InstaFlixxer for months myself =)

I'm very happy you posted this because I just bought some leather cream for my tiempo legend v's
Back when all I had to worry about was staying in shape and keeping my boots in tip top shape
thank you so much for the link! ive been looking for the cream for soo long
+bobstamaco you apply it to the grot half which is leather but not to the back half which Is synthetic
Hope that helps
I've been using my Premiers for almost 3 months now. For maintenance, I use dubbin with a soft shoe brush. After the dubbin is worked in, I let it rest for 24 hours and dry it off with paper towels. The shoes perform and look great!
Any new links on which leather cream to apply?
Ive been doing this to my premiers ever since august 2013
Yet ive been applying small amounts of glove conditioner for baseball gloves.

You don't need to treat brand new boots.
I have a question: Did you also applied the leather cream into both the outside and inside nike swoosh part?
Great reviews by the way, I'm hoping to see later a comparison between the predator instinct and the predator absolion.
Thanks Josh this actually really helped, appreciate it!
If applied to the tiempo legend v will it affect the hypershield lining?
Hey Josh! You should do a video talking about the new Adidas 99 gram boot coming out in 2015! There might not be enough information about it right now, but possibly in the future :) love your vids!
Hey josh! This video was on the whip on the kicktv youtube channel.

Great video josh ! I neede to know this so I can clean my tiempo legend
I've been playing with my $30 umbro diamondback leather cleats for ten years in the snows, rains, summer heats, the older the better they feel. Never polished them. I should start now. It's hard to find real leather cleats now or they are very expensive.
How have you been able to fit the same boots for a decade? Does the boot just stretch with play?
Because I had stopped growing. I am 50 and still playing with a mixed group of 18 to 50 years old players. They don't know my age.
i have ctr360 and they have been getting stiffer. Would leather cream make the softer. Would it work on kanga light?
Dude he said leather, leather!!!! Kanga lite jus mimicks the feel of leather, but it is a type of synthetic
Can you make a video on how to clean synthetic football boots
Hey josh, How About: how to know whether a certain soccer shoe is good or not when buying one , it's quality if you will, by stating the factors that make a good show and a bad show perhaps, and thank you
For those asking about synthetic boots just use a cloth and wipe them with warm soapy water and maybe an old toothbrush to get in all the nooks and crannys.
Is vaseline/petroleum jelly a good substitute for the leather food? If so, how do i apply it to my boots?
I did use vaseline and it worked
your boots need to feel and touch like your second skin, too shiny you slip the ball. You need to get good grip on contact.
They will looked oiled up like this, but it won't make them softer. But there is plenty of leather food/cream, whatever for cheap
Josh you were on KickTV!

Hi ***** , do you need to do this for the nike timpo legacies?

Can I use Kiwi leather wax? But it's a liquid
Guys, josh said it applies for every leather boot! If it is a synthetic shoe of course you shouldn't use leathter cream!
Thank you soccer reviews For you ur advise really works thxs
Dose it matter if your boot has ACC? Can you still apply the cream?
For example a nike Tiempo legend 5.
Can you use people cream like the one that you use for your own skin would it do the trick
No.
Would moisturiser (cream you put on your face/body to keep your skin hydrated) work?
***** I have ordered a pair of Adidas F50 AdiZero TRX Leather, and I'm wondering should I apply the cream to all of the outside of the shoe?
Joel O'Neill the only thing that is helping my eczema, _vunatias eczema remedy handbook_. No more wearing gloves oh yes :)
Hey can you glue cleats back together if they are starting to separating?
do you still have to treat the cleats after a while, even if they're not being worn?
Hey I have some tiempo 5s and the kangaroo leather and k-lite...should I put the cream or not?
You should do a video on how to treat or clean nikeskin
There is no maintenance needed for the NikeSkin. It is synthetic. The only thing you should do with NikeSkin is making it clean by removing sand and mud ;)
Thanks :)
You're welcome
How often should you apply the leather cream for a pair of tiempo legend v

Adidas Copa Mundial
I just got the phantom hypervenoms (first colour way) does acc play a part in caring for the boots? Thanks josh your the best!

Kyle Caelian once a month is plenty
Kyle Caelian I
Twice a week.
How about Nike leather shoes with ACC？ Will the cream work or ruin the ACC layer?
Rifeng Ding acc is nothing it’s just a gimmick
Josh, I have some mr minnit branded leather conditioner to use with my legend 4's. The conditioner is runny and I don't quite get the same shiny affect.mon the bottle it says that it takes care of leather shoes and garments. Is it okay or do I need to buy sone of yours. Please. P.s I live in Australia
Can I use petroleum jelly as a substitute for leather cream?
I did and it worked
does it darken the colour of boots? i have the nike tech craft vapour x yellow and brown colour
It shouldn't.
Could I apply leather cream to a leather shoe that has been treated with ScotchGard?
Is adidas leather balsam considered a leather cream or what is it?
+Soccer Reviews For You I was just wondering if I can use leather cream on my Nike Tiempo Legend 6's. Thanks!
+RG Tyler Absolutely.
Is the leather cream moneysworth that you use
Pros and cons mercurial veloce!! Please!!!!
do you need to apply anything if they are not being worn?
As long as they're clean before you put them away, you should be fine.
Should i apply this cream to the toe area on the mercurial superfly tech craft, just for the leather area ?
+nemo3496 It wouldn't be a bad idea.
can we use any kind of leather cream?
Does the leather include cath leather? On the nike tiempo mystics?
Any natural leather upper.
How often do you need to apply? Is Vaseline acceptable? I wear the adidas Gloro 15.1
Once a month is all you really need. You can apply leather cream more often if you'd like though. I've never used vaseline.
I have a type of leather oil that does the same thing but it's meant for baseball mitts. Could I use that on a pair of natural leather shoes like the legend 6
You should be alright.
is it neatsfoot oil? u should not be using that. neatsfoot is also made from cow hooved and shins, animal material so it speeds up oxidation of leather. i added them to my tiempo legend vi and it kinda had more wrinkle after.
Hey ***** in the video you said you only need to apply it once in a while, but how long is that? Every week? Month?
Whenever they start to stiffen up a bit, i've found. If you can tell that they aren't as soft as they were, add some.
Whenever you feel its necessary. I wouldn't personally do it more than once a month.
If you use them as much as I do you should probably do it once a week. but have practice everyday for 2+ hours
Premier vs tiempo legacy comparison?
Why have you stopped whats un my soccer bag
Can you please review the puma king top di k

Will any leather cream work for my cleats? Is there a specific type?
Any will do, I've used cream sold in sports stores & cream sold at the shoe-care section of the supermarket & they both did the job equally well.
Indoor play test please.
i have a question all these boots are you buying them for you or you are doing only reviews?
Companies send him the boots to review. Sometimes he will buy boots such as the ones for retro unboxings.
ohh! thanks
Does this apply to the tiempo legacy too ?
Yep
Will it work on mercurial?
Can I use leather seat wipes ????
Does this work with tiempos?
Is leather lotion the same?
Is it ever to late to apply it
I like the tutorial videos
Should i also treat the cangaroo leather of the tiempo legend v's like this?
+Jay Dizzle It's spelled Kangaroo bud, and of course
do you still need to apply if you are just collecting them but not using ?
+nightrush13 No.
Can u put it on Tiempos legend 5
Is there a specific way I should wipe of the leather cream after I let it sit over night.
Gabe A. Did you watch the video? you should only be using small amounts of leather cream and rubbing it in to the boot until there is nothing left of the surface. There shouldn't be anything to wipe away.
Awesome video really helps thanks. :)
How do u know if ur shoes are truly leather
Is there any stores out there that i can buy lether cream ? My mom dont trust internet
Some sports stores sell it, or look in the shoe-care section of your local supermarket
Almost all of the shops who sell shoes has them, football/sport shops have them too sometimes. I just bought mine from foot locker
would any leather product work or does it have to be formulated for soccer cleats?
I have some survivor brand leather "lube" and it says it's for premium leathers to water proof, protect and keep it soft. as well as a can of a different type of leather treatment called mink oil. would that be ok? would one be better than that other?
Pretty much any leather care product will do. Mink Oil works fine.
you're the man Josh. thank you for always answering my dumb questions 😊.
