Men's Journal Approved Style - Leather Milk Review
Posted by Aaron Snow on Dec 15th 2013
Chamberlain's Leather Milk is now Men's Journal approved! Men's Journal recently did a great Leather Milk review titled "A Winter Coat for Leather". In the Leather Milk review, they gave their readers tips and tricks for preserving and maintaining quality leather during the winter season using Chamberlain's Leather Milk. We are very excited to be noticed by such a cool company. You can read the article by author, Phyllis Fong HERE. Here are a few excerpts from the Men's Journal Leather Milk review:
"Now that the rain and sleet has ushered in the season of leather-killing sidewalk salt, it's time to get serious about taking care of your boots. We've been stocking up on Chamberlain's Leather Milk, developed in Fort Worth, Texas, to meet the needs of men handling cattle, to make sure our tanned goods make it through the holidays in decent shape. Chamberlain's collection runs the gamut from hard-core cleanser to Chamberlain's Leather Care Liniment No. 1, which is the company's perennial best seller because it is perfect for conditioning shoes and belts – and smells like cherries instead of chemicals."
"Chamberlain's No. 2, the Straight Cleaner, packs a bit more punch but still uses all-natural, non-alkaline cleaning agents to gently remove grit and substances that damage leather. Use the No. 2 to clean shoes before applying a conditioning treatment. Chamberlain's No. 3, the Water Protectant, is a heavier conditioning treatment made of natural oils and waxes – ideal for shoes that will see a lot of outdoor action, such as Red Wings, hiking, or motorcycle boots. Keep in mind that this treatment will definitely darken lighter leathers, so test it out first to see if you're okay with the result. Though heavier than the No. 1, the No. 3 still absorbs quickly, and after investing some time in this preliminary care, it's deeply satisfying to see drops of water standing on, rather than penetrating, your boots on a rainy day."
