Made me put it on my new baseball glove when I was about 12 (1965). Found the glove buried amongst some stuff in '94. The outside was hardened but the palm area was fine. Bet if I'd put it in a plastic bag or something my son could be using it today. Reminds me to get some for my new saddlebags. WinXP 17th September 2005, 12:10 I have used neatsfoot oil on my work boots for years. Helps soften up new boots an water proof them.

Bummer about the recent Fox Creek Leathers info though I was thinking of one of their jackets. And this Neats Foot Oil would be great on a jacket I think. If I remember correctly, my Dad used to use it years ago on his baseball glove. fafcpa 23rd September 2005, 12:59 Any problem using it on a leather seat? I too used in on my baseball glove in the 50's. Still have the glove and it is soft as butter.

So I guess you're alright with taking those poor helpless neets and cutting off their feet and mashing them to a pulp in a press and taking the juice and making oil out of it just to rub on your materialistic cow-killing leather stuff????? :roflblack mordak 23rd September 2005, 15:50 Any problem using it on a leather seat?

As long as you don't Armorall your seat you'll be ok. Chris B. 23rd September 2005, 16:03 Fred I think you just answered your own question. As long as you don't Armorall your seat you'll be ok. I was warned about that as well, If you Armor all your seat, you'll slide right off it! jsub 24th September 2005, 02:04 Careful, I've heard that neatsfoot oil will deterioate the stitching.
