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

I had several older purses I was selling & they needed some serious TLC. I applied this & was truly flabbergasted by the results-they looked INCREDIBLE! By far, this is the best leather conditioner I have ever used! As a reseller who often has to “rehab” leather goods, this stuff has a permanent place in my business! As you can see in my photo, the before & after on this pair of Ariat boots was impressive. Don’t hesitate to purchase this, your leather jacket, boots, couch, etc etc will thank you!

Water resistant, easy to use . Will be ordering again and again

This is the product Russell Moccasin advises to use on most of their leather boots. Applying it is easy, just use your hands. I use saddle soap to clean then them off first, let them dry, then apply the Obenaufs. This product will darken your leather so do be prepared for that. I applied 2 coats but will still get some watermarks on my boots but I wear them everyday. It does make cleaning dirt off them easier. Im sure this product is helping prolong the usage/life of these boots.

Keeps your boots leather supple and helps prevent cracking. Helps keep them waterproof. Even on older boots. Best leather protection product I’ve ever used.

Great product and smells nice as well

Really protects leather.

I purchased 12 years ago an expensive calf high set of leather -20 degree hunting boots, made in America. I wanted to put the absolute best I could find on them for preservation. Did so, and can stand in 6 inches of water (longest time was about 20 minutes). I still wear them to this day, they color the leather a little deeper than natural untreated leather, but that was Immaterial. This stuff really works. Leather is supple, water proof, and all the stiching is as well. Get some, being a blend of numerous products, it works better than any single product I have ever used. Still wearing my boots too.

I have been using this on my boots for about a decade now. It helps me extend the life of my boots and makes them look presentable enough for the office when they start looking a bit scuffed up. Works great on other leather goods around the house as well.

Overall, I am very happy with the product as I had the right expectations going into trying it. Recommended for dark brown or black leather ONLY. Be forewarned that, while this product performs as expected, it ABSOLUTELY WILL SIGNIFICANTLY DARKEN medium brown (i.e. the majority of men’s and women’s boots on the market) or lighter leather. Also note that is not a good option for very light leathers such as white or gray, nor any colors (red, blue, etc) other than dark brown or black in my opinion. It will lighten -somewhat- over time from its darkest during application, however in my experience the original medium brown leather will NEVER come close to the original color ever again. Again, best for dark brown or black leather only. This is not a problem if you are open to, or otherwise perfectly happy with, a change to a much darker brown finish. If you can accept that, then it is an very good product. After application, 48-hours of drying, and then light buffing with a quality horse hair brush it leaves a satin finish that causes water to bead nicely. That said, I would not call it “waterproof”. I would not even call it “water resistant” unless it were applied in more than one coat and regular maintenance coats, perhaps not even then. This is more of a leather conditioner. Not good for suede or nubuck leathers. Fine for dark standard leather or glossy buffed leather (glossier shiny finishes will likely require vigorous buffing with an electric buffing wheel after application of this product to achieve again).

I quickly did a couple pairs of boots, and then re-coated about 24 hours later. Brought some life back to some dry leather danners
