4 Tips for Conserving Saddles
While every saddle is different, Brad Ford Smith offers tips that will help conserve your family’s personal legacy.
1.
Leather that is used remains in better condition than leather that is retired. Using leather keeps the chemical compounds migrating throughout the piece, maintaining its suppleness. When leather is unused, it quickly stiffens and the chemicals trapped inside of the leather turn acidic.

2. Changes in humidity, temperature and sunlight exposure are big threats to leather. Leather absorbs moisture. As moisture levels change, leather can warp. It can also mold. Extreme changes in temperature accelerate chemical processes that break down leather. Sunlight causes UV damage to leather, making it fragile and very prone to staining.
3. Avoid the temptation to restore leather by adding conditioners such as saddle soap or neatsfoot oil. While a layer of conditioner or wax enhances the appearance, it adds “fuel” to the chemical fi re, increasing the rate of decomposition. The wax or oil becomes rancid, creating another source of acid.
4. Leather conservation is an ongoing process. If you have a prized saddle restored, it is possible that the problems such as spewing will reappear over time. To minimize reoccurrence, restored items should be stored in a temperature- controlled environment.
