I had a pair of deerskin gloves that I used for hunting, I thought I would waterproof them, I used a high quality leather oil. Worst mistake I ever made, it remove all the porosity from the deerskin. The first day out it was cold, and those gloves felt like I had on metal gloves the cold went through like I had my hands in ice water. The short of it is I ruined those gloves. Be careful on waterproofing gloves, I ended up using them for yard work on warm days.
I am going to try this, I have to walk my dog during the winter and rainy season, and this will help me keep my leather gloves, waterproof and supple. Thanks for the tip.
I left 3 pare of leather work gloves in my outdoor shed over the winter. When I got to them they had mold on them. I figured they were ruined so I couldn’t make it worse. I smoked them in white vinegar. Somewhere between 2 and 10 hours. Then scrubbed them liberally with a brush. After rinsing them with water I conditioned them like in this video and they look and feel great know. If you have a better suggestion for mold on leather gloves let me know.

The tax write-offs in this video series are impressive. 😊 p.s. I love my new Vermonters Question: the conditioning, then waterproofing, then re-conditioning next season or whatever…seems you’d heat the gloves once the wax is on in order for the neatsfoot to get back in?
hey guys i build custom waterfalls and was wondering if these apps would make the gloves a bit slippery as far as pickin up stone 50-80# stone is not friendly to feet.
