Super easy to use! I just used a microfiber cloth to rub it on in kinda circles. It dried really nicely and gave the leather a healthy look. It even helped even out some of the scratches from regular wear. I’ve used it on a couple different boots now and have loved the results every time.

This is a little jar but it works like a big jar! I have used it on leather purses and shoes and it creates a beautiful shine and glow on whatever it touches. Use a soft cloth and rub in until it starts to shine.

Very good shine and seamless across multiple leather colors

Otter Wax Leather Salve | 2ozExcellent for restoring old leather boots and bags. Smells natural and easy to apply.”

I used this conditioner on both faux leather and genuine leather. I always thought one had to take shoes in to a professional to get this done so I'd never done it because I lacked the extra money. The only leather shoes I had conditioned were my mother's hand-me-down leather flats that she had conditioned professionally just before giving them to me.Brown real leather boots: ~5 or 6 years old, never conditionedJust after the application: definitely darkened the boots, but seems to buff out surface scratchesAfter 3 days:While the scratches were buffed, it looks like the leather has darkened and in some spots there is chalkiness. I can't tell if they were better before or after the conditioning. I followed the directions, it states the leather will lighten as it dries but it did not. Went from chocolate boots to espresso.Black faux leather boots: 1-2 years old, never conditionedJust after the application: appeared more matte/less shiny than unconditioned boot. Likely the "hazy" affect the directions mention, but wouldn't buff out. I was expecting the conditioned to be shinier but that wasn't the case for the faux black leather.After 3 days:Unfortunately this was the saddest result, these boots were relatively new and looked just fine before I tried to condition them and instead now they look chalky and have a very weird texture.Black real leather flats: 8+ years old, not conditioned in the past 4-5 yearsJust after the application: shiny! Also buffed out the "dusty" look of the old black leather.After 3 days:This is the only pair of shoes that turned out okay. They seem to be supple. I didn't see any apparent chalkiness.Overall verdict:I would not purchase again for faux. All this did was require me to wash my boots again and take them to a professional anyway. I'll keep it handy only for genuine leather, but will use with caution.
