What would y'all recomend to keep my leather in good condition?   Whats a good way to get the stiffness out of a new holster and ammo belt?

Much obliged for any help

I like a good saddle soap. Some pards here report good results with Lexol or somethng similar. There are a lot of good leather preservatives available. Maybe some others will chime in here. Neetsfoot oil will soften the leather but, for a holster, it will make the leather too pliable and it won't hold its shape well.

I use Lexol cleaner/conditioner..works just fine for me...olive oil or mink oil will soften stubborn leather but use it sparingly.
