Obenaufs Heavy Duty LP Leather Preservative (4oz)- All Natural Beeswax Oil Conditioner- Rejuvenate Restore & Preserve Sunfaded or Cracked Boots Jackets Saddles Car Auto Upholstery Furniture- USA Made

Whether your boots say “waterproof” or not - this boot preservative is a must. Don’t be fooled by spray-on “preservatives”. The all natural ingredients last far longer than the synthetic alternatives out there. I wear my boots every day on the farm and they get a lot of wear - water, mud and dirt. I apply Obenaufs several times per year and when my boots finally wear out it’s because there’s holes in the sole - the leather is still in good shape! Great stuff.

Not sure how well it protects and preserves yet but its very easy to apply. Its not oily or sticky and absorbs fast you can use a sponge, cloth or your fingers and washes easily off your hands when done. It will definitely darken leather and make it look great, so far no complaints, leather seems to be much softer! I like it

This worked well on my bison leather ski gloves.

I love this! I pressure wash and trail ride. I get everyone I know to love this too! It works. 2 coats and good to go!

Awesome stuff, does a really nice job of keeping my work boots looking and performing like brand new!

The reason I purchased this preservative is for use in the leather foot bed of sandals to prevent them from collecting summer foot grossness. Without any protection, the foot bed gets sweaty and odor-iffic. I read that this stuff prevents bacteria growth and is a waterproofing agent, so I decided to give it a try. I just applied it to two brand new pairs of sandals yesterday, so I havent put them through any daily use yet, but Im already a fan of this stuff! The preservative soaks in very well, and has a pleasant, faint, honey-like smell. This preservative is almost like butter, and is very easy to use. The warmth of your fingers is enough to melt it just slightly and begin the absorption process. After applying with my fingers I used a hair-dryer set to high heat and it really helped to melt it completely into the leather. You can literally see it becoming one with with the leather! While you can tell that there is a just a hint of waxiness to the treated surface, its much more natural than I was expecting. I applied 3 layers and can hardly tell its there. Im guessing it will become even less evident as I continue to wear them. **One bit of warning on color change: It darkens light-colored leather quite a bit. In fact, Id say a LOT. What was initially a creamy, light-colored leather foot-bed (would call it a very light flesh-tone) became many shades darker (like a well-tanned beach babe) after application. I didnt mind the color change, but is something to keep in mind if you are concerned about any color change from your original light leather color. The color change for darker brown and black leather was almost imperceptible. But light will be quite a bit darker after this stuff is applied. The only sort of downside is that it takes several hand-washings and some soapy scrubbing to completely remove the waxiness from your fingers after applying it. But its not terrible, and certainly not a deal-breaker.

I have used a couple of other leather conditioners- even ‘Amazon’s choice’ but the results didn’t seem to last and soon my leather was back to looking dry. I live in Arizona. I bought this beautiful couch on the marketplace for a killer price and I love it - except - it has ‘unfinished’ leather. I have another leather couch that I bought from Costco 10 years ago and it requires zero care. But not this beauty. I received the tub. Rubbed my hand on the top to warm it up and soon I had a nice thick lotion and just used my hands to rub it on the couch. I used about 1/2 a tub on this sectional - it needed it! Did it darken? Yes a tiny bit. I wish I had before pix. I just couldn’t stop once I started. I already have another tub in my cart. I’ll shoot for every 6-8 weeks as the tub directs. We will see. Huge fan right now tho! Looks amazing. Feels supple and soft.

I am a repeat customer. I use this product on my work boots and leather gloves. Adds to the life of these items and makes them more comfortable to use.

Apply a few times

after doing a bit of research this product was the only answer whether it be for a new pair of boots or an old pair that arent so pretty anymore, slap a coat on and it will feel 10 times better when wearing them. Not to mention how great they are for gloves.
