WAQK Assembly - Leather care, history and pride w/ Mia
About
WAQK is incredibly excited to work with the talented 2025 Sydney Bootblack Mia for our next assembly!Have you ever been curious about bootblacking or want to learn how to better care for your leather?
In this beginner-friendly workshop, Bootblack Mia will cover the basics of cleaning, conditioning, and polishing leather, along with practical tips for bootblacking as an act of service, care, and connection within the leather community 🖤
Mia will walk through a simple leather care routine, discuss different products and tools, and talk about bootblacking etiquette, whether you’re caring for your own gear, or working a stand.
Participants are encouraged to bring a leather piece (boots, belts, jackets, etc.) to practice on during the workshop 🧥👞
