trying to clean leather boots

paddles

hi,
have these high brown leather boots that were v expensive. they're a kinda glossy leather mainly with a different leather at the top that's tan and a rougher texture.
prob is that i was polishing them with cream and the rag was dirty and i didn't take proper care and now i have marks that i can't shift with regular products. so they look really sh*t
i have kinda streaks on the leaather.
has anyone anysuggestions or can u get boots professionally cleaned??

i'd pay for the latter as i currently can't wear then and they were bloody dear!

Have you tried using saddle soap? It's normally used for saddlery, but I use it on all my leather boots and shoes and find it works really well. As well as cleaning, it also protects and softens the leather.

If you try it, it's best to get a glycerine based one as it will put a shine on your shoes/boots.

Was gonna post the same response. If you go into any saddlery shop they should have saddle soap (to clean your boots) and leather protection stuff to shiney it up and protect it afterwards. Works for saddles, riding boots and my NewRocks!

saddle soap worked for the most part! there's still a stubborn stain that existed previously that i've given up on but it's only a small blip so not gonna lose sleep. thanks, all
