Nothing will really magic old leather back to normal sadly
 . But I have found that olive oil will soak in very well. It will darken the the leather for a while but no harm. Dubbin is also very good, you know how it can revive and waterproof an old pair of boots.

Thanks to all of you for giving your advice.
I first followed Rick's recommendation and contact Leathertherapy in the US. They have no representative in Europe and the very amiable lady recognized that transport would cost more than the value of the product and than insisted that I should take the tel N° and email address of their company in Australia ! May be they could ship cheaper ! Geography is not an inborn quality ! I like the simple Olive oil suggestion. I will try it. It may take a while in view of the many fringed parts ! Thanks Michel |
