Product Review: Sterling Essentials Subscription Service
It started with a pair of broken tendon boots. I was devastated when my tab-style, open-front show jumping boots broke a week before my next recognized horse trial. I had a short window to hunt for a new pair, but I didn’t want to drop major $$ right before the show staff cashed my entry check. So I dug deep into my trunk to find a suitable alternative. I unearthed a pair of fleece-lined, all leather open-front boots I haven’t used on a horse since high school. Big yikes.
It was risky. I didn’t have a lot of time, but my only option was to try to rehab these old leather boots. So I turned to my trusty Sterling Essentials leather cleaner and conditioner to get the job done.
I’ve been a believer in Sterling Essentials for a long time – it does the cleaning and conditioning job without irritating chemicals. Made of all natural ingredients like beeswax, food-grade natural oils, and therapeutic essential oils, Sterling Essentials leather cleaner and conditioner keeps my tack soft, clean and protected from the hot and humid conditions in Florida. It only took one good cleaning and conditioning for these 15-plus year old boots to start to come alive again. Within a few days, they looked amazing – as if I hadn’t neglected them by leaving them to collect dust at the bottom of a tack trunk all this time. Needless to say, they were what I strapped on my horse’s legs at at that horse trial.
Sterling Essentials makes it easy to stay stocked up on supplies through their annual subscription service. Starting at $59.99, Sterling Essentials ships me new supplies every three months (for a year) and I don’t have to think about coming up empty ever again.
You can even pick your favorite fragrance (lavender for me) and tiered level of how much you need. I know I’m always going to need cleaner and conditioner, and it’s a bummer to root through my trunk only to come up with an empty bottle. This subscription fixes that problem and ensures that I always have quality tack cleaner and conditioner on hand.
