5.0 out of 5 stars Read item description before applying
I see a lot of controversy surrounding this product so I’m going to clarify some things first. Please read the item description before purchasing. This is a heavy duty leather preservative designed for woodland firefighters. A lot of people want to jump straight to “the best” protection when it comes to boots. I’m here to say, that may not always be necessary. There are other products out there that may better suit your needs and give you better results! Bottom line, do your research. What kind of leather you have and how to care for it is most important.Now when it comes to this product, I’ve waited until the first significant snow to share my thoughts. The product works flawlessly. Water, ice, snow beads up and evaporates quickly.This product will darken your boots and give them more of a muddy, matte look. Horsehair brush will shine them up and re-destribute the wax throughout the leather. But your boots will remain darkened. Any varnish, leather aesthetics will be covered up. This includes scratches and scuffs.I’ve shared a few pictures. First one is the boot before treatment. Second picture is same boot after treating with Obenauf’s and waiting one week. Third picture are a pair of shoes I’ve treated with Obenauf’s.I used a heat gun at 200F to apply the product. This is absolutely not necessary. I also pre-treated the footwear with Obenauf’s Leather Oil a week prior before applying the wax. Again, not necessary.This is a great product but it’s not for everyone (or every shoe).
5.0 out of 5 stars Works great! Darkens leather.
Great product! Just put it on a new pair of rustic brown blundstones high-tops to help protect. (See pics). Definitely turned them a bit darker and I show that in pics to compare. Also used an old pair of rustic black blundstones and cleaned them up nicely. Test it on a small area first to make sure the darker color is ok for you. Goes on easily and dries pretty fast.
5.0 out of 5 stars stuff is magic...used it to PROPERLY remove ugly creases from my leather cowboy boot
amazing, in fact magical.i have a lot of leather motorcycle jackets and western, as well as hiking, boots. so i'm not a neophyte when it comes to conditioners and preservatives. but i'd only purchased the liquid kind, and good brands.this stuff is leagues beyond oil or liquid leather condidioners. bought it to darken several pairs of cowboy boots that the better leather oils/liquids did not really affect...including not really getting rid of the dryness of some boots, mostly new for that matter, that came dryer than i'd like.the pairs of lucchese, justin and dan post didn't really show any difference from the oils/liquids after they soaked in and a month had gone by. so i figured there is something to using a thick cream/paste with a great reputation like obenaufs. and indeed there was.first, it darkened (as i wanted) a full shade a much too light golden brown pair of justin bent rail distressed boots. at first it took some of the distressing away, but as the cream dispersed fully into the leather from the surface layer, some of that richness and 'damaged distressed' look came back, including the depth and richness of the leather.next came the hard case, a pair of dan post distressed square toe apache 'earp' boots. have to say the uneven leather texture on these went beyond distressing, they had creases in inappropriate places (where wear would NOT take place) plus the color variation looked dopey, with the toes very dark like they'd been dipped in chocolate, and the rest of the boot with better looking variation. they were also dry as a bone (and that's NEW).i'd already tried to darken and condition them a bit, but the oils, didn't help even after 2 applications. the LP was a different story, applied after a slight warming and partial liquification in my hand, it went into the leather like water in a dry sponge. the variety of shades from the distressing disappeared into a deep rich brown, which at least took away the chocolate-dipped toe look. BUT within several days the depth and richness of the distressed leather came back to a much lessened extent, but at least it looked real than the overdone original manner. as the obenaufs dispersed deeper into the leather, drying into the boot...the magic began.on boot trees, the leather began to reform and tighten around the boot trees, bringing great shape to the boots that they hadn't even had when i got them new a few months back...sorry dan post, but these had a rumpled and unequal look that was allegedly supposed to be 'distressing'.after the obenaufs conditioned the leather, and tightened their rumpled look, helping lessen some awkward dimpling and creases, i got the idea of laying obenaufs into some particularly ill placed creases and dimples on one of the boots, figuring it might allow the leather to get needed moisture and conditioning so the creases and dimpled depressions could fill.for once i was right about something, and after a day when the cream i'd laid into those depressions soaked in, it indeed lessened the creases and dimples. a little working in with my fingers, and pressing to flatten, helped. after a second such application, i removed almost completely one bad crease that no kind of wear would have ever naturally created, and had probably occurred by leaving too loose leather on the original wooden last during (bad) construction.despite my problems with the original boot, after some work with the obenaufs, these are incredible...the best part being that virtually all of the dan post defects during manufacture were eliminated...and those that weren't, were lessened immensely so that if anything, they look like real distressing.amazing stuff!
So far it's the best boot protector I've used
I've been looking after leather boots for a long time and I've used a lot of different products - mink oil, silicone, beeswax, and things that are combinations. I have to say, so far this stuff is the best. Goes on with your hand, works in easy and so far it's great. Penetrates deep but doesn't leave the leather greasy, so far it's lasting longer than my usual beeswax and looks better too. Like all oils it will darken the leather.
The best of the best
For boots it is the ultimate product
Obenaufs is a very good product to use on any leather goods would definitely use again
I used this product obenauf on both of my leather jackets the result was very good the jackets were more supple & they had a lovely leather smell with it. I applied obenauf for a second time to the jackets really pleased with results. Application used was hair drier & soft cloth, l warmed cloth & container to make more manageable then apply to jackets all over I layed them on a flat table to make it easier. I also found that it made my arthritis better in my hand by using the warm cloth.
Grasa preservadora de piel Obenauf's
Me encanta el producto, deja mis botas excelentes, repele el agua, llego a tiempo el producto, incluso antes de tiempo, y también me gusta que no huele a diésel, súper recomendable
Very nice stuff.
I put some on my boots and it seems like I would work well in wet conditions when it fully dried it wasn’t sticky like I thought it would be I also put some on used winter gloves the palms we discoloured from wear and with the product applied they came really nice again I haven’t tried them yet in snow I will post later to see how I performs. I ordered a brand new pair or leather work boots and i’m Going to put 2 coats on them before even using them and I intended to continue to add some more during the months and see if it will help prolong the lifespan of my boots.
