Maintaining stylish leather shoes comes with a fair number of hardships. Leather shoes need cleaning, protection, and that little something extra to keep them looking luxurious all year round. Cleaning and treating your leather are imperative but knowing how to is crucial.

Properly caring and cleaning for your leather is the difference between it lasting for generations or just a few years. People who own and use leather know that not cleaning it is detrimental to its stability. Contaminants can penetrate deep into the leather and break down the fibers. To understand how to properly care for leather, you must know what to do and what NOT to do.

There are a surprising number of sports that use leather! From cleats to balls to mitts, leather is used in nearly every sport.

If you live in an area where it snows, you know how the salt that gets on the road and sidewalks gets everywhere! I’ve noticed walking into my house there is salt stuck in the bottoms of my shoes. You’ll even notice how it will leave “salt spots” on shoes, carpets, etc.

We engineer Mad Cow leather cream to protect leather pieces that are exposed to the elements (water, UV light, dirt). Examples would be: motorcycle bags/seats, car seats, shoes, and couches. We do not recommend using the leather cream on nubuck or suede.

The Mad Cow leather cream is an all-natural and non-toxic product. Our non-toxic product will not irritate the horse when it touches their skin. This makes it the perfect leather treatment for leather that touches animals or humans.

Environmentally friendly products have always been in the minds and hearts of Mad Cow. We wanted a product that is not harmful to make or whenever it comes in contact with skin, pets, etc.

Today our products were tested by one of our wonderful customers, Zane. Zane used Mad Cows leather cream in his super cool 1973 Mercury Cougar with a white leather interior!

For most leather pieces, 2-3 times a year is recommended for treatment. It is essential to consider how much exposure to the elements your leather gets. Something with high exposure to elements like shoes or motorcycle leather may need to be done 3-4 times a year. Then there are pieces of leather that rarely see the light of day, and these pieces need less treatment, 1-2 times a year.
