Lots of division among brooks owners as to proper break-in and conditioning.
I've had a Flyer for 3 years now, several thousand miles and it's still practically the same as the day I got it.
Never used proofide(which supposedly is just a protectant anyway) but around 300 miles I did the tinfoil wrap with linseed oil. Doesn't seem like it did shit. Considering using mink oil or even 10w30, but I've read that it over-softens. Any experience?
