How to clean leather shoes with common household items?
Asked by curiouslillady21 (33)

I have no saddle soap and I need to clean a pair of men’s nice casual slightly rough leather shoes. They’re not stained, just need to be cleaned before we freshen them up with shoe polish.
I found a recipe online but I do not have any of the oils it says to use – see below…
* 1 part white vinegar
* 2 parts neat’s-foot oil OR raw or food grade linseed oil
I HAVE NONE OF THESE OILS
* Use a white lint free cloth to swirl on, leave overnight then buff for maximum shine.
I do have olive oil, veg oil, baby oil, white vinegar, and other basic household items.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Using Fluther
