last time when i was still in aust, i used Dubbin wax for my boots.

i have a can if you want to borrow to try.



i've not used it on my boots here, but try it on my leather straps :D

it conditions and waterproofs the leather. Dubbin has been around for a long long time as leather conditioner.

it doesnt discolor leather as much as mink oil.



let me know, i can pass it to you to try.

Re: Leather Boots
try not to use wax for shoes , it will make it less porous , less air go thru then not so comfortable. also tends to dry your shoes, its better to use shoe creams



but if your shoe got a lot of scratch marks and pot holes , then leather will be great to fill in all the marks

Re: Leather Boots
by the way do you bother whether your shoes are leather or rubber soled?

i only wear leather soled shoes for work , imo rubber shoes are too casual for work wear

if u wear it everyday, the soles will not disintegrate, our case happened becos we left the shoe on the rack without wearing hence it disintegrates



afaik, clarks soles are quite durable :mrgreen:

Re: Leather Boots
yup if never wear for too long the soles will kinda harden one
