Default Sticky zips

The zips on my new boots are quite stiff, and sometimes stick a bit. Is there a way to free them up a bit, or is it just a case of they'll get smoother with use?

Default Re: Sticky zips

I use either a pencil or candle to rub on the zips of my boots if they are a bit stiff!

Default Re: Sticky zips

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried using a pencil because the boots are black suede and I didn't want to mark them, and it helped!
