88 customers mention69 positive19 negative

Customers find the surface protection wax fairly easy to apply. They say it goes on smooth and easy, making the leather feel fantastic.

34 customers mention27 positive7 negative

Customers like the appearance of the wax. They say it provides a great looking finish to the leather, restores the look and suppleness, and looks good for a few weeks. Some say it makes their boots look like new and has very little color change.

Customers like the dissolved time of the surface protection wax. They say it's easy to apply, waterproofs instantly, and dries quickly. Customers also mention that the inside of the gloves and boots were dry.

"...Result? No wet leather, no cold feet, dry toes and great customer satisfaction. I applied it liberally, let it dry, wiped off the excess...." Read more

30 customers mention10 positive20 negative

Customers are mixed about the color fading of the wax. Some mention that it does darken the leather, while others say that it doesn't. Some say that the product is easy to apply and does not darken their boots too much. However, some customers mention that the wax does darkened the leather over time, so beware with light colors or tans.

"...It will darken the leather over time, so beware with light colors or tans. Of course a rain soaking will also darken and stain these so......" Read more

"...It also did darken the leather but no more than mink oil would have. I applied it to some smooth leather (not nubuck) Timberlands...." Read more

"...I didn't give it 5 stars because it darkened the color of the leather some...." Read more

"...low odor while applying and dries quickly it does leave the leather a little darker which wasn’t an issue for me I was expecting that and actually..." Read more

22 customers mention10 positive12 negative

Customers are mixed about the washability of the product. Some mention that it soaked in the leather, the dirt rinsed off, and the boots look like new. It does, however, easily clean off their hands with soap and water. That said, some say that it attracts and traps dirt.

"...You can see the yellow wax stuck in the perforations on one boot as compared to the smoother boot without decorative holes...." Read more

"...not greasy, was not waxy, did not irritate my skin, and was easily cleaned off my hands with soap and water. I" Read more

"...it forms a distinct yellow-ish residue on the surface...." Read more

"...It cleans up easily and doesn't feel greasy, but a thicker cream would have felt a bit nicer." Read more

Turkish?
5 Stars
Turkish?
I was going to be annoyed that the Amazon label was covering the instructions for use, but then I realized it didn’t matter because all of the text on the tube is in Turkish… I definitely placed my order for an item with photos of a tube with text in English. But I persevered and just searched for application instructions and watched a video of a guy with a nice accent, so it all worked out in the end.The product is more liquid than I’d anticipated. It came out of the tube pretty quickly, so I wasn’t able to use the sponge applicator on the tube, otherwise more of the product would’ve kept running out (even though I wasn’t squeezing). I put nitrile gloves on and just rubbed it into my boots with my hands instead. It seemed to work well, but haven’t really tested them in bad weather yet. Upon sink-testing it seems good though!
