Leather holster preservative help

What do you guys use to put on your knife or pliers leather holster to keep it from rotting in salt water environment? I just bought a new one for my favorite pliers and wanted to hopefully waterproof it or whatever would be the best long term.

Mink oil. It's actually a thick cream. Waterproof's and protects better than anything I've used.

Thanks TC

- looks like a shoe store is the place to get some.

I HAVE ALWAYS USED SADDLE SOAP, USE IT ON ALL MY LEATHER GOODS EXCEPT SHOES.
