Nikwax Unisex's Waterproof Wax for Leather-White, 60 ml

Boots

I used this stuff on my leather motorcycle jacket from the 80s. I'm not from the 80s and the thing was begging for some moisture.I didn't end up using the sponge applicator, for rubbing the wax into the seams. I actually squirted the wax into my hands and massaged it into the leather. Let it dry a bit and then buffed out with a microfibre cloth.Much quicker to just get your hands a bit messy than use the sponge I found.Works great as a waterproofer and the leather feels much nicer now. Definitely buy one extra incase you run out mid way through the application process.

I've used a tester of the nikwax leather waterproofing paste and was really happy with it's performance even is snow.However, when it came to using tube with the sponge applicator, the sponge snapped off half way through the first boot.Fortunately I had some kitchen towels to hand in order to finish of the boots.Could be that I received a dodgy tube so will reorder from another vendor and see if it's a better experience next time.

Not tested in the wet yet, but I imagine it'll be really good. It's oily and greasy and all-things water-resistant.

This is really good stuff. I wanted to rejuvenate my old boots a little so I purchased this wax. It restored the original colour and gave the leather a like new sheen. The water repellency works well although I think the product would ideally be used on a finer grain leather because some water still soaks into the creases, a vast improvement however. The tube is quite small and you should really use as much of the product as the leather will hold - I managed to treat two pairs of boots with one tube. Unlike a lot of boot treatments it didn't soften the leather much/ at all which I like.Delivery was late but I have been assured by customer services ( prompt and helpful) that this was down to the courier.

Esay to spread. Have to wait and see how waterproof it will make my boots after recently being drenched in torrential downpours

Ease of use does the job it should

What more is there to say? I treated my leather hat when the wax arrived and some weeks later I wore it during a heavy rain shower. The hat did not soak up any water and the rain left no marks.
