I think it might involve a litle wee wee....and it does work to take out the soreness......I'm not sure about it softeneing the leather though.

I have done it when my feet were really blistered, so i know it works.....but at present my feet are Ok......no blisters, no sore red places where the skin is chafed off......and that is because i choose shoes for comfort rather than fashion.....OK, I know that is SAD.

Seriously now, not like me I know but once got told by a leather repair guy who did some work for me on our suite is use anything on leather that you would use on your face, and if you wouldn't put it on your face dont put it on the leather
