I've been doing some reading on taking care of nice leather shoes and jackets, and I was wondering if people had found any particular products and processes to help take care of their leather good. Particularly I'm wondering about leather cleaners, conditioners, and waterproofing for jackets to avoid changing colors but still take care of them? Additionally, when taking care of dress shoes, should you combine oiling/conditioning your shoes with polish, and how do you deal with blemishes in the leather?

For my first OOTD post, I’m wearing a small green-and-white checkered button-down and a pair of dark-wash bootcut jeans. I’m wearing a dark brown leather belt and jacket, with two-tone dark and light brown cowboy boots (which need oiling). I’m also rocking a Seiko Kinetic Sports 50 in two-tone gold and silver, with a Damascus and brass ring on my left hand (the ring also needs some polish) and my engineering ring on my right, with a Marian consecration chain. Topping it all off, I have my chocolate-brown cowboy hat to tie it all together. On a side note, I am about to start losing a few pounds, which is why the jeans fit a little snug. Interestingly, where I work, the company attire is very casual; T-shirts are not only acceptable but sometimes even recommended. By dressing like this, I’m trying to raise the bar slightly, because a full suit or even a sports coat would feel almost try-hard, since even our CEO usually wears jeans and an OCB. Any all feedback will be much appreciated.

Due to my hot nature, activity level and hydration I often find myself at the mercy of sweat. How do you gentlemen deal with sweat in public?

Lighting is a bit different in each one. I think tucked looks smarter but at the same time, it's warmer to wear.
