5.0 out of 5 starsBest ever
By J. Ediger on June 4, 2012
Size: 8 Ounces
I began using LP in 1996 when I started fighting forest fires in Northern Idaho. Funny enough, thats where and why it was invented. The store where I bought my fire boots (huge, bomb-proof logger boots) told me that this was what I should use.
The boots took five years of every kind of abuse from submersion to heat to wood ash and LP kept them soft, waterproof and wearable. I tromped through fire and ash, planted trees in spring rains, crossed creeks and slogged through knee-deep mud and as long as I wasnt actually working in the creek all day, my feet stayed pretty dry--no blisters.
I use it on my work and hunting boots now and, though it will darken lighter leather, there is nothing better. I have used mink oil (terrible), pure lanolin (not bad), sno-seal, pure bees wax (a close 2nd), and silicone (smelly) and this is the real deal. I also use it on leather gloves and baseball mitts; anything leather that needs moistened, softened or waterproofed.
Don't expect anything to permanently waterproof boots. This will not give you the same protection of rubber boots and if they are cheaply made no grease or wax will keep water out of loose stiching.
I don't usually melt it; the heat from your fingers applying it is usually good enough though once in a while I set them near the wood stove (3-4 feet away, no closer) to let it penetrate.
Clean leather is better of course but even if you can't get them clean it can be applied to dirty leather with pretty good results.
I will never use anything else.

4.0 out of 5 starsGreat product with some warnings...
By Andy C. on August 10, 2014
Size: 4 Ounces Verified Purchase
This is a great leather heavy duty protector and conditioner but it comes with some minor problems. I also own and use Obenauf's leather oil and have a review of that as well. Basically, the HDLP is for heavy use such as for work and hiking boots while the leather oil is better for lighter duties such as dress boots.
I've been using these solely for my heavier boots and belts so I can't say much else for other leather products but I see a few problems with such use.

Application: This is a wax, so it has the consistency of a soft runny wax that will melt with body heat. I usually apply this stuff by hand and it works very well since it allows you to massage the wax into the leather. After application, it takes about a day to dry or a bit faster if left in a warm(not hot) place. After it's dry, use a rag to wipe off the excess and a Qtip to get into the nooks and crannies. I then use horsehair brush to buff off the excess. This will leave a dull sheen that can be polished if you want to. It works well but tends to leave an annoying sticky and waxy residue longer than other conditioners. It took almost a week for a pair of boots to dry before it wasn't sticky to the touch anymore. I don't know how people can use it for leather couches or anything you regularly touch.

The smell: Obernauf's formula is obviously made from a base of bees wax and other proprietary leather conditioning oils(often animal products but may occasionally be saps or plant based) so there is a smell. A pretty a strong smell. It's not unpleasant and smells like honey but it actually remains around for some time. I waxed my Red Wing work boots about 3-4months ago and it still smells of honey when I lace them up.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent product for leather, smells like honey.
By James Baker on December 19, 2012
Size: 4 Ounces
I picked up Obenauf's when my last type of oil ran out. The price was the same and as someone who does wildland fire fighting I had heard good things. The differences is incredible. Obenauf's feels much nicer on your skin then many other treatments and washes off very easily when your done. I have found that Obenauf's last much longer and does a better waterproofing then the synthetic stuff I had been using before. It also seems to take less to treat a pair of boots

One funny side effect of being made with bees wax, is that at first your boots will smell like honey. This quickly wears off, but I wouldn't head into bear country until then.

5.0 out of 5 starsBoots without Obenauf's is like a day without sunshine
By R. White on January 8, 2015
Size: 4 Ounces
This stuff improves the look of your boots, makes them softer, and makes them last.

I saw someone at a coffee shop wearing the same pair of Red Wings Iron Rangers that I had on and we complimented each other's choice of footwear. He asked me how long I had owned them and I told
him almost two years. He didn't believe me because mine looked nearly new and his looked trashed after less than a year.

He complained about how his feet were alwas wet and cold in the winter as well. I told him to get some Obenauf's LP and his problems would be solved.

I recently bought some new Chippewa steel toes for work. They aren't as nice as my Red Wings but they look 1000 times better with the first treatment of Obenauf's. I'm a customer for life.

3.0 out of 5 starsExcellent product, however ...
By MajorC on April 5, 2013
Size: 8 Ounces
First off let me say I really dislike having to rate this fine product at 3 stars, but if you are a leather fanatic like me you must state your opinion based on years of observation.

Obenaufs LP Boot Preservative does what it claims to do. It preserves and protects leather. However, for me, it changes the appearance of the leather more than I like. I buy well crafted leather shoes and boots and I like to take care of them. I buy footwear based on appearance and after wearing shoes and boots for awhile I would like for them to look about the same as when I bought them. Even after the first application of Obenauf's LP the leather darkens considerably. It also never seems to dry leaving a slightly greasy film. I have tried buffing repeatedly with a horse hair brush, but the surface of the leather still appears greasy. I have tried the hot method, the cold method and every method in between -- same results.

Many previous reviews of this product here at Amazon and other sites mostly compare Obenauf's to Sno-Seal, a very similiar product. Obenauf's LP is 100% natural and that is a plus. Sno-Seal does contain mineral spirits, but from the gas I put in my cars to the various oils and cleaners used on my sporting equipment there is a long list of things that show up on a MSDS sheet as hazardous that I use every day. (follow the precautions)

Obenauf's LP is very soft and "wetter" than Sno-Seal. Sno-Seal is mostly bee's wax, just like Obenauf's LP, but it contains mineral spirits. I believe many decades ago that Sno-Seal used turpentine instead of mineral spirits. Many fine floor waxes and bowling alley waxes, today, still contain such solvents.Read more ›
