Let them dry by them self and then take a brush to them and clean off all of the mud and stuff. Put rolled up newspaper inside to absorb any odor or wetness.

On waterproof boots, hose them off with as high water pressure as you can get. Use one of those boot scrubbers to loosen the dirt/mud as you hose them off. Then take the boots off and allow them to dry.
To make your own cheap boot scrubber, take 3 wooden handled stiff bristled brushes and ***** them to 2×4’s to make a U shape just a little more narrow than the boot so the bristles will work the dirt/mud off.

Wash them off with a garden hose with jet spray nozzle

Simply use water and a soft scrub brush. Allow the boots to dry. Then if you want you can rub Sno-Seal into the leather and then finish it off with a hair dryer. That will allow the leather to breathe, stay waterproof, and resist rotting.
Make sure to clean your boots about twice a year if you use them a lot. Otherwise the leather won’t be able to breathe and the leather may *****.

buy a boot brush it looks like a tooth brush but it has brass brissles, rubber brissles and a rubber scraper @ walmart then let dry not near fire room temp or boots could dry rott and shrink. you should also get the mud off as soon as possible for it will dry out the leather as well. and always keep them lubed up with your favorite oil or preservitive.
