This is the best stuff for your leather boots. I used to use it years ago, and I thought for some reason they went out of business. I rediscovered it recently and boy was I happy. Heat your boots up, I use a heat gun on low or a hair dryer. paint it on thinly with a small brush (if you warm up the can its a liquid if not, its a thick goo.) and hit it with the heat again, it'll soak in. buff the excess off and you have waterproof leather. Now, people tell you it is not for waterproofing the welt, and in the hot weather this is sort of true, as it turns to a liquid and is more like oil in the heat, BUT... in the cold winter, if you paint this stuff on the welt, its thick. When its out in the winter cold, its even stiffer and sticky and DOES seal your welt up nicely. Buff all the excess off the boot well, or you'll have stained pant cuffs where they ride on your boots. If its buffed off till dry not so much. Very light coats will soak in and the leather will be nice and dry. It smells like pine tar, which if you have never had pine tar, smells a bit like axle grease. So keep that in mind. You'll get used to it. Properly done you can waterproof leather boots in the cold to be as water tight as a rubber boot. You ever watch old movies and think how did these people keep their feet dry in leather boots? Well pine tar and bees wax is a very old mix and for a good reason.... it works. Hubers is formulated different than the old stuff but it works excellent. Try this FIRST....all other weather proofing goop like mink oils et al, pale in comparison. Just buy it. Read more

This is an excellent conditioner and sealer. However when they say it may darken the color, it definitely will. I bought a pair of saddle leather brown boots and once I applied this I had a pair of dark brown almost black boots. They warned of this on the can was just darker than expected Read more

I work outdoors all day, every day, often in wet grass, mud, and everything else nature can throw at me. Having the right leather conditioner makes all the difference, and Huberd’s Shoe Grease has truly earned its reputation. After applying a single coat, my boots shed water easily and stay flexible without feeling greasy. Even after long days in wet conditions, my feet stay dry and comfortable. The application is simple—just rub it in, let it absorb, and buff lightly. It restores the leather’s color and keeps it from cracking, which means my boots last longer and perform better. If you rely on your footwear for tough work conditions, this product is worth every penny. I’ll absolutely repurchase when I need more. Read more

So the “may darken” leather statement should be “will darken leather”. It works great, protects, softens and makes the leather pretty waterproof. I wouldn’t use this on furniture unless it was already dark brown or black. Perfect for dark leather. Read more

I use this product annually. This has protected my boots and prevented my feet from getting wet. This product is sticky and thick but is really easy to apply Read more

After oil treating and conditioning a leather bag, I decided to apply Huberd's Shoe Grease to make it water resistant because it will be used for a daily commute and, at some juncture, it will be in the rain. Consequently, I threw on a disposable rubber glove and applied it by hand. I bought the 7.5 oz can and was worried it wouldn't be enough. However, it is plenty and a little goes a long way. Be prepared because there is a smell to this stuff, which disapates with time once applied. Otherwise, it's fantastic. Read more
