I have used both of these products and have found them to be pretty good. Both of them will darken the leather somewhat, but they do a good job of preserving and keeping the leather soft. I use one or the other on my deer skin riding gloves (ATV riding) and have found that they will extend the life of the gloves by quite a bit. It has been about four years since I bought the last pair of gloves. If the leather is aready hard from age nothing that I am aware of will restore it to any degree of satisfaction. I tried both of them and also Neatsfoot oil on a old C96 holster rig that had dried and also shrunk and nothing did any good, it's still old and shrinken, just darker now. The Neatsfoot oil works well but the leather really soakes it up.
