I recently started working at a stable and I got some boots for work and riding. I havent owned a pair since I was a kid and those ones were cheap and not really needed. These ones I got at a place called Clippity Clop(smth like that) and they were expensive. They are made by Laredo.
Anyways, ive been working in them and I noticed they are getting wet and then darkening, softening, and becoming misshapen. I rinsed them off just mow since they were already soaked (huge storm last night walked through many puddles today) and then I tried stuffing them with papertowels to force the shape back but it doesnt seem to want to unwrinkle. The wrinkles are also large so its extra annoying. How do I properly restore them? #home source
