Leather saddle Is it safe to use saddle soap on leather furniture?
I am looking for an inexpensive leather couch conditioner/protector. Is saddle soap OK to use?
Saddle soap is NOT GOOD for your leather furniture. It will make it look good but is actually harmfull in the long run... Lexol No Bull are a few good ones ... Then there is plain old H2o on a soft cloth..
Many of your store bought auto based leather cleaners seal up the leather to the point that it can not breath. A good condtioner needs to moisterise the leather as well as allow the leather absorb and react to the envirment its in... Saddle soap does not do this....

I am looking at a used saddle that I might buy. I rode in it today, and it is so comfortable. The only problem is that it has some minor cracking above the knee pads. Is it possible for these cracks to be repaired by a saddle repair shop? I am going to use the saddle for showing. The rest of the leather is in good condition. It is a very good price, and an expensive brand name. I couldn't find anything on the internet about fixing these cracks, only how to prevent them. Thanks!
Ps. I asked this in the general pets section, but I think more people will see it here.
Check this site out it tells you all about saddle care, and you can click on a link to ask the repair man a question. http://duckriver.ponyclub.org/TackCareRepair.html
Go to this site it will tell you how to fix those cracks good luck, but I would still ask the repairman on the previous site to be 100 %
Leather saddle Does anyone how to keep mold from growing back on a leather saddle?
Sorry, does anyone KNOW how to keep mold from growing back on a leather saddle
Here's info about leather:
Leather Structure The outside of the leather is known as the grain. It is covered with pores that helped maintain the living animal's fluid balance. After the hide is tanned the pores are passage ways that allow moisture to escape from the leather due to environmental conditions but also allow us to replace this moisture through the applications of oils & conditioners.
The middle layer is called the corium which is made of protein fiber and is the strength of the leather. Dirt and grime that enter through the pores into the corium break down the protein fibers and weaken the leather.
The bottom side is the rough. this little-finished side readily absorbs liquids and grime. Leather's worst enemy's are water, heat, dirt and salt from sweat.
Leather Storage Keep your light leather out of fluorescent lights & environmental elements as much as possible to help prevent darkening. All leather changes color as it ages but this will help to slow the process.
Always remember to store your saddles and tack in a dry, ventilated area and do not leave your tack in direct sunlight.
Barns, trailers or any other location that is continually subjected to temperature extremes may not be the ideal location for the storage of your tack.
For basic tack protection make sure you store it out of direct sunlight. Cover it up to keep dust off or other accidental scratches from occurring. Try to hang your tack or get it up off the ground.
Take humidity control measures such as removing wet saddle pads from your saddle and running a dehumidifier or fan in your tack room.
Leather Cleaning Leather tack should have a thorough cleaning every half dozen times it is used. For optimal results, tack should be wiped down with a damp cloth or sponge (or WEAVER WIPE) after each use to battle dirt and grime build up.
Also use the cleaning sessions to inspect your tack for wear and tear. (See "Think Safety" sheet.) Billets and cinch straps are the most critical checkpoints. As you are cleaning your tack look for thinning or creased leather, loosened stitches or stretched holes.
Even unused tack can deteriorate so make sure you examine all equipment before use.
Tack maintenance involves two essential processes and possibly a third: cleaning, conditioning, and sealing.
Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment on tack with deep tooling to remove dust. Dust collects in cracks and crevasses in the leather and clogs the pores. Make sure all dirt and dust is removed before oiling your tack to prevent the dirt from caking up.
To effectively clean your bridles and other strap goods it is best to take them completely apart. Cracks and closely fitting components are areas where filth collects most easily and weakness develop most readily.
Start by wiping down all equipment with a damp sponge or rag (or WEAVER WIPES) to remove all surface dirt.
Next apply a cleaner (Bick 1) with a damp sponge. Make sure you use a cleaner that is formulated to remove dirt and grime without drying out the leather.
To avoid darkening your leather, use wax-free formulas that remove stains caused by ink, food, soil, grease, and spur marks.
Make sure that you clean both sides of the leather. A toothbrush may be used to get into the cracks and crevices of the leather.
Wipe off all soft residues which will stiffen the leather if they are left to dry.
Allow the tack to air dry for about 10 minutes. Do not use any heat to dry the leather. Allow it to dry slowly and naturally.
Next apply a conditioner such as Bick4. Apply the conditioner to slightly damp tack using a soft cloth or sponge. Put a light coat on all surfaces and repeat with a second coat if it seems to absorb very quickly.
Different types of tack require different types of conditioning. Oil may be used on items constructed of thick leathers that are subjected to severe conditions such as western saddles or work harnesses. For other tack a conditioner such as Bick 4 may be all that is required.
Use 100 percent pure neatsfoot oil to oil your tack. Leather can only absorb a certain amount of oil before it is saturated. Using too much oil can cause leather to deteriorate. Simply wipe a small amount of oil on both sides of the leather with a clean rag.
The frequency of oiling your saddle depends on the condition of your leather. You do not need to oil your tack every time you clean it.
Clean your bit using a soft scrubbing brush. Pay attention to any broken or sharp areas.
Also remember to clean your girth to help keep your horse comfortable and to help prevent chafing and saddle sores.
Wet Tack When leather gets wet the oils that lubricate the leather form bonds with the water and they are washed away. This weakens the strength of the leather.
If your tack gets wet fairly often you may chose to waterproof it. This protects your tack from water damage with a moisture barrier that can't be penetrated in either direction.
Make sure your tack is well conditioned before waterproofing because conditioner cannot be added unless the waterproofing is removed with leather cleaner.
Glycerin soap is a commonly used leather sealer that is often mistakenly used as a cleaner. When applied before the conditioner it prevents any moisture from being absorbed into the pores. If using glycerin make sure it is applied after cleaning and conditioning. It leaves a waxy, protective coating that blocks moisture and makes for easy wipeoffs after riding.
If you tack does get soaked with water make sure you treat it before it dries completely. If let dry the leather will become stiff as a board.
Clean the leather thoroughly and then apply a few light coats of conditioner into the damp leather while the pores are still open. Allow to dry slowly and naturally.
Mold Molds are green, fuzzy spores that evade the core of the leather and weaken the fibers.
Molds can be cleaned off using a leather cleaner but once they have invaded the leather will likely return on humid days.
Clean, dry storage can help prevent molds. If molds have already gone into your leather's core you can treat it with white distilled vinegar. Simply go over your leather with a cloth dampened with vinegar and give four to six hours to work then clean and condition your tack as usual.
Leather Quality When purchasing tack make sure to chose products made of quality leather. Poor quality leather eventually stiffens and cracks no matter how much effort you put into maintaining it. Quality leather is well worth the higher price and is a one time investment that only improves with age and good care.
The origin of the leather should be stamped on the item or tag. Look for English, Canadian, German and American made leathers. These are the best quality materials used in tack on the market. I t should have a good clean "tack shop" smell as contrasted to the chemical or acid smell of the lower quality leathers. Good quality leathers should also be smooth, uniform thickness, and free of flaws. Cut edges will be smooth and evenly spaced.

What is the best leather oil to use to darken my new saddle and bridle?
I just received my new custom Schleese saddle, what is THE BEST leather oil and conditioner to darken it? I'd like my new bridle to darken considerably too.
Check with the manufacturer and see what they recommend. Some leather company's don't use the same tanning processes and its possible that using the wrong product could damage your tack. For example, Stuben uses a vegetable based tanning process, not chemical, and they created Haminol to clean and oil their products so as not to ruin the leather. If the company doesn't have a particular recommendation, you could try Lexol brand products. You won't have the stitch rotting or rancid smell you get with neatsfoot oil. One answer suggested "mink oil or neatsfoot oil they're the same thing". They are not the same. Mink oil is actually a cream used for waterproofing leather. It will darken the leather but the tone will not be consistant and it will look blotchy. Good Luck.
saddlebag saddlebags What are the best saddlebags for the Honda Rebel?
I just bought a rebel and I want to get saddlebags. Any info on windshields would also be greatly appreciated. Any ideas? Thanks
They will have to small or it won't look right. The slanted styles will clear the shocks a lot better. Any of the small throwover bags for cruisers would be ok, but get saddlebag supports to keep the bags from rubbing against the paint. I used Willie and Max bags on an old Vulcan I used to have. They are durable and good looking, but if it rains your stuff will likely get wet. Hard bags are better, but difficult to fit on such a small bike.

What is the best excersise to reduce thighs or saddlebags?
Is there anyone out there that knows how to get rid of saddle bags (physically). I'm active and I'ce tried excercising that area of my legs, but they are still there! help! I'm not old I'm 12 years old. I'm talking about the saddle bags like on your hips and they have that weird curvy shape (like saddles).
Many females are born with wide hips. Some have a very exagerated hip girdle. Some tend to store fat on their hips more than others. It is common, however, for females to store fat around their hip and thigh area.
You cannot change your bone structure. Although, you can reduce the fat around your hips. Start with your diet, do not eat excessive amounts of saturated fats such as: animal fat or cheese. Don't confuse what I'm saying; fat should not be eliminated completely, just kept to a minimum. Fat is essential to your health. It lubricates your joints, releases hormones, keeps your skin soft and moisturized.
Attempt to be more active. At your age, specific exercises can become boring. I suggest getting exercise and having fun at the same time. Try playing soccer every day or every other day for an hour. Swimming is great exercise as well. Riding your bike is also good. What ever you do, try to be intense and do it for at least 30 minutes.
Try and eat smaller and more frequent meals, every day. Try and eat about 4 small meals a day. Or even 6. Yes, 6 meals. I know it sounds like a lot but it's actually better to eat 6 small meals than 3 large ones. The reason is, if you eat 6 small meals spread out through out the day, your body can digest them better and you will be provided with a steady supply of energy. Having 3 large meals spaced 3 or more hours apart will leave you heavy feeling at first. In between meals, you may become very hungry because too much time has elapsed since you last ate and your body hasn't been nourished.

Whats the best exercise to do to get rid of saddle bags?
You know the upper thigh area! I'm already working out to an exercise video called Turbo Jam, but I would also like to target that specific area! Thanks!
Walk as far as you can away from the refrigerator and Taco Bell, Wendy's and Burger King. Just kidding. I think bicycling and hot showers to steam yourself just like being in a steam room.
Touring saddlebag What is a good touring bike and where can i get one?
Hi there! I am interested in doing long distance cycling. my goal eventually is to build up for cycling all over the world. Ive heard mixed views on mountain/touring bikes and was wondering what is best. The bike would have to carry a full load, saddlebags on the front, back and a handlebarbag i think. carrying camping gear and whatever else one requires for such long distance travel. it also needs to be able to do road/offroad, be veeery comfortable and able to ride well with such a weight on it. if anyone knows of good bikes that can do this, and where to purchase one i would be very grateful! i wont say a max price because i honestly dont know how much ur meant to pay for such a bike!
Being the biggest Raleigh fan on this web site - I have to go that route. My new Raleigh Sojourn rides like a friggin' dream! But sadly, that bike is sold in the USA. For the UK version, check out the Raleigh Royal - second link below. Mine is on the first link.
As the owner of my LBS (local bike shop) always says, "Steel is REAL".
