I agree with all of that. Edit: IDK about the sheepskin comment that just appeared as I was writing this... but the other few posts.
This could be the ultimate of the natural deep conditioners and if I find that it is, I will put it in my toolkit. This is for application on very old jackets, not Repros. I am thinking this stuff would be great to treat especially dry areas, I don't think it would be a replacement for the other all natural conditioner I use. It has no waxes either so it will not waterproof the leather like beeswax or petrolium jelly. You would need to follow up with another conditioner to get those benefits.
Jackets are a lot more delicate than tack. Different thickness of hides, different processing, etc.
