It's like you don't even comprehend english. Creases don't necessarily make boots look worn. Boots that look like they've had the shit beat out of them look worn. Shoe trees don't necessarily eliminate a boot's ability to crease, but they prevent your shit from looking like total ass (such as OP's pic), and from ripping in half.

Mink oil isn't the best for boot leather. It's mainly used for work boots or things like saddle leather. You permanently lose the ability to get a good shine (they'll shine somewhat, but never high-gloss). Also, boots will age regardless. I have no idea why anyobe would want to speed up the process. Just enjoy how it changes over the different stages of its life.

tl;dr mink oil will give it a bit of a beat up look anyway.
