Stinky Sandal Filter

I have a pair of leather sandals that have a couple years of dirt, dead skin and miscelleanous grime worn deeply into the insoles. What's the best way to get rid of the foot-gunk without destroying the leather?
Yeah. Saddle soap. Available wherever shoe polish is sold.

You're not going to believe me, but steel wool works wonders. A bit of glove oil after will make it back to normal.
For the doubters and naysayers, my sergeant-major of a dad strips the spit-shine off his parade boots every few years with steel wool and still gets them back into tip-top shape. Will do the same for your foot gunk.

It is soap for leather.
