I don't know what the right way to do it is, but my saddle is holding up well and looks lovely
Sno-seal is nice to protect and do a little treating. the Viberg Heavy-Duty Leather Preservative does a great job of both and is easy to use. No idea where to buy it in Vancouver, I get it from the factory store here. I bet Huberd's would be good too. If it's just conditioner without any wax (Mink oil, Lexol, etc.) I'd use Sno-Seal after conditioning for protection Sno-Seal, and Lexol are available basically anywhere.
Almost anything is going to feel a bit funny for about 20 minutes before it buffs up. I generally slather the Viberg stuff on and let my shorts do the buffing. Nice if it can soak in for a while first.
