Update - January 4th 2021 - Following government guidelines our shop in Church Stretton is temporarily closed. Please be advised that any boot fitting appointments will be rescheduled once we have a reopening date. In the mean time we are able to continue to trade online and we will be sending orders out as swiftly as we can but there may be some delays. Please bear with us during this time. Thank you to all our customers for your ongoing support and kindness. James & Emily
Altberg only recommends Leder-Gris
All leather will eventually show signs of cracking where the boot flexes. Treatment with Leder-Gris will slow down the rate at which this cracking will occur.
Drying boots too quickly will harden the leather and accelerate flex cracking - rapid drying may also shrink the boot and alter the fitting.
Always let boots dry naturally in a cool place.
