What do you use to clean and polish brown, specifically ‘Cognac’ colored Ariat Challenge Contour Square Toe Field Zip, tall boots? I just purchased a pair and am finding it challenging to get a direct, confident answer. Please let me know your experiences!
I have an old pair of Marlborough boots that are that color. I use Meltonian boot cream in Cognac.

The Marlborough boots are the plain ones in the middle of the picture.
No suggestions for you, but I need to get a pair of those!
I use Stubben Leathersafe to clean my boots (after first using a damp rag to remove an obvious or caked on dirt, mud, crud, etc.). Then I use an appropriate Meltonian creme polish (mine are all black, cordovan, or London tan). Been using this system for a couple of decades. Before that it was black or brown shoes using a creme base coat and then a paste over coat. That would keep the Gunny’s happy!!!
