I read two different claims last night. SOme places say to use mink oil, but 
Wilson's leather goods recommends something called "leather lotion" and 
discourages the use of things like mink oil. SO I figure I'll take it into them 
and see what they say.

  Neatsfoot oil or some use mink oil. Let a sighted person try it on a inside 
area. Don't get overzealous in applying.
  If the leather has been dyed it still might not absorb real evenly.

  I have a full length leather duster here. It's starting to feel kind of dry 
and not as supple as it used to be. What oils should I use on it, if any? It's 
not suede, it feels kind of pebbly.
