Bickmore Bick 1 Leather Cleaner (8 oz, 2-pack) is a concentrated cleaning solution designed to remove surface dirt, sweat, salt stains and grime from properly tanned smooth leather.

Keep your shoes, boots, saddles and other smooth finished leather items looking their best with a two-bottle supply of Bickmore’s long-running leather cleaner. The formula has been used for decades to lift stubborn soils from equestrian tack and everyday footwear alike. Use it as the first step in a leather care routine, followed by a quality conditioner, to restore appearance and help maintain pliability.

How does Bick 1 remove heavy stains from equestrian and everyday leather?

Bick 1 is built to penetrate surface grime and dissolve sweat and salt deposits that collect in leather grain. It works on finished smooth leather where tannins and finishes are intact, loosening embedded dirt without harsh abrasion.

• Formulated for aggressive cleaning of surface soils and salt stains
• Suitable for hardworking items like bridles, saddles, and riding boots
• Removes residues that ordinary soap and water often leave behind

Is this cleaner safe for my leather items and how should I use it?

When used on properly tanned and finished smooth leathers, Bick 1 cleans effectively while minimizing harm to the leather’s surface. Always spot-test in an inconspicuous area and follow with a conditioner to restore oils and sheen.

• Spot-test before full application to confirm colorfastness
• Apply sparingly with a cloth or sponge, working into soiled areas
• Wipe off excess cleaner and allow leather to dry before conditioning

What should I expect after cleaning — do I need another product?

Cleaning with Bick 1 removes contaminants but can leave leather feeling dry; finishing with a dedicated conditioner is recommended. Bickmore suggests following Bick 1 with Bick 4 Leather Conditioner to replenish oils, improve flexibility, and enhance the look of the leather.

• Use Bick 4 or another quality leather conditioner after cleaning
• Conditioning restores suppleness and protects against future cracking
• Regular cleaning + conditioning extends leather lifespan and appearance

Where is Bick 1 made and which leathers does it suit?

Bickmore manufactures Bick 1 in the United States and formulates it for use on a variety of finished smooth leathers. Avoid untested use on unfinished, aniline-only, suede, nubuck, or porous exotic leathers unless you’ve verified compatibility with a spot test.

• Made in the USA by Bickmore
• Designed for smooth finished leathers like footwear and tack
• Not recommended for untreated or highly porous leathers without testing

Who is this for: Riders, cobblers, outdoor workers, and anyone who owns finished smooth leather items that face heavy use and staining will benefit from a 2-pack of 8 oz Bick 1 cleaner. It’s especially useful for people who want a reliable, time-tested cleaning step before conditioning to maintain appearance and function of boots, saddles, bridles and leather accessories.
