A must for exotic boots.
This is a great product for exotic boot care. I use it on Ostrich and my son uses it on caiman. A good value and enough to last for a good while

Works great on my vintage Tony Lama Exotics.
I discovered Bick 4 around 2015 and was amazed with the difference it made when I used it on my '90's black Tony Lama boots and light gray leather interior in my 1994 Thunderbird.The boots became soft, and the car seats felt like a leather chair in a living room after they drank it in.Awhile later, I discovered Bick Exotic and decided to try it on my Exotic Tony Lama Boots.My 4 pair of Tony Lama Exotics are (from L-R) Natural Teju Lizard, Boa Constrictor, Python and Cobra.While they all have an amber color to them, this is not due to the Bickmore. They all looked exactly like they do now before I ever applied Bickmore to them.These boots were all purchased off eBay between 2008 and 2013 and are probably Black/Gold Label Boots from the 70's/80's.The Teju Lizard, Boa and Python were barely worn. The Cobra saw a good amount of wear and has metal tarnish from heel and toe protectors that were on them at some point. They all have their original soles and heels.After doing some research, I've learned that reptile skins turn amber due to a combination of how they are cured as well as exposure to elements such as age, sun, cigarette smoke etc.I know for a fact that sun exposure is a big deal. I had a pair of water snake boots that got dark spots (sunburn) due to sitting in a spot in an apartment of mine that got sun for a few hours a day.Please know, before I learned about Bickmore Exotic, I was using Bick 4 on all of these exotic boots with no issues. It worked so good on my black boots and car seats, I took a chance with it and it worked fine.However...The Bickmore Exotic is a thinner liquid spray and seems to get under the snake scales better than the Bick 4.The Boa Constrictor scales are smaller than the Python and Cobra and the boots always seemed to have a sandpaper feel to them even after conditioning them with Bick 4. Since using the Bick Exotic, the Boa still have a coarser/brittle feel, than the Python and Cobra, but they seem to respond better and are softer with the Bick Exotic.So far, both Bickmore products have worked well for me.Suggestions....Like the instructions say....Always do a test in an inconspicuous spot to see if you may have a discoloration issue.Just because I didn't have any issues, doesn't mean that you won't. My exotics aren't new, have age discoloration and may have been cured differently than newer exotics.If you aren't familiar with the care of reptile skin, watch a few videos on the internet. Also, make sure you have reptile skin and not a print.After watching a few video's and having observed how my boots have reacted to both Bickmore products, I created my own routine.When it's time to condition, I brush my boots with the scales. I then use a smaller brush in gentle small circles to apply the Exotic so that it can get under the scales and let it sit. Depending on how the boots feel I may repeat this once or more.At this point, I do something different than most video's show. Many suggest a cream polish. I use a light coat of regular Bick 4 applied in the direction of the scales instead of cream polish. Let it dry and wipe off any excess then buff with a brush in the direction of the scales.The other things I do are:Occasionally use a light coat of Bick 4, (NOT Exotic) on the inside of the boot, to condition the leather from the inside.*** I have read that too much conditioning on the inside of a boot can cause snake scales to lift.***I also occasionally use a light coat of mink oil on the soles to condition them and maybe give them some water resistance. I don't know if it adds any water resistance as these boots do not go outside when it's wet. But it does seem to keep the soles soft. This is a once or twice a year thing, or I go by feel.*** Mink oil will darken most materials it comes in contact with, so keep it away from your exotic skins and light colored leather. When I do my mink treatment, I only do the bottom of the soles. I use a light coat, let it soak in for awhile then wipe off the excess. So far, I've had no staining issues doing this.***Please know the above has worked for me on these 40 or so year old boots. But, it may NOT work for you on your items.Hope this helps.

Good product, but not sure what the difference is with "regular" Bickmore
I have been using the standard Bickmore Bick 4 for years for all my leather shoes and it is a fine moisturizer.The description on that bottle states that it can also be used on exotic leather.So I have been using that on a pair of belly-ostrich boots with no issues.But I decided to try this "exotic" version.Also works fine, but I don't notice any difference with the regular stuff.Maybe over time? I don't know.If you have any expensive exotic leather item (boots, bag, jacket, etc) you might as well go with this item. Just to be sure.
