Sorry,
but there is no "simple answer" to leather care- everyone has an opinion and does it differently.

The best care is to store them in the dark, with humidity controlled to +/-50%, and temperature held constant around 70 degrees F- IF they are in good shape, I'd leave them alone.

AND that is Just my opinion.

Thanks gentlemen. I appreciate your time in answering. And you're right, post-stroke, I didn't want to do any damned research and hunting. I was hoping perhaps some newer products might have been found by now. For the guns, I've stuck with Hoppes gun oil for a long time. I thought there might be an equally reliable solution for the leather. Again, sorry to appear "lazy".

Don,

That's not just your opinion. Those are facts!!! It doesn't matter what you put on your holster to treat them. The most important thing is to keep them where the temperature and humidity are mild. Your figures are spot on.
