Right, so if you're serious about your leather boots or shoes, you absolutely need to be looking after them. This medium-sized brush from R.M. Williams is a total no-brainer to have in your kit. It's got a really sturdy cedar handle that just feels right in your hand, making it genuinely easy to use for a proper polish. The horse hair bristles are soft enough that you won't worry about scratches, but firm enough to really work your polish or conditioner in. It’s ideal for getting that lovely nourished, glossy finish on all your smooth full-grain leathers, like yearling, willow, or even kangaroo. Just a quick heads-up: it's not for suede, so keep it for your slicker styles.
