Nikwax Waterproofing Wax Cream for Leather - Neutral, 100 ml

This stuff is incredible! Worked it into a pair of cowhide leather gloves, now they are super waterproof and have gone an amazing waxed shade. Easy to apply, soaks in quickly and provides immediate protection. I Spent more than 5 hours sectioning, splitting and storing wood in the rain and hands stayed bone dry. Puts a good grip on the leather too. Well happy with this product. I Will definitely be buying it again to keep in my kit bag for further applications when need be to gloves, boots and other leather kit. Amazing! 10 out of 10

An essential piece of kit for anyone with leather walking boots. It is essential to keep your boots clean and conditioned to keep them waterproof and to get your money's worth out of them, and this stuff does the trick! Easy and simple to apply, your walking boots will be immediately waterproof after using it - just don't forget to do it as often as you need to! I use my walking boots everyday for my job, and without Nixwax for Leather I'd have wet feet every day! I'd recommend it to anyone with elather walking boots!

I tried this wax in my five pairs of leather boots (not on my suede boots though) and I have to say it takes a while to apply it. I tested one pair today and it resisted heavy rain so the product works. I can't say for how long though but from previous experiences with other waterproof wax products I only reapplied it once a year at the beginning of winter. I had to take one star as the sponge applicator broke on the second boot and I had to finish using my fingers. You could use any other soft sponge but I didn't have any. One thing to bear in mind is that wax products darken your brown boots at least one or two shades. I'm aware of that and I don't mind at all but if you care about the colour just use a waterproof spray because all waterproof waxes will have the darken effect. This doesn't happen, or it's not noticeable, on black boots.

Does what it says completely waterproofed my leather ankle boots and plenty in tube left to reply as when I need

I used this to waterproof a leather motorcycle jacket on a road trip around Scotland. It worked extremely well as I stayed completely dry the entire time. Even in some harsh Scottish rain. I did apply twice before I left and once while on the trip. It dries overnight and leaves no residue. A little goes a long way and this should last me for around 6 months. Great product and will buy again

This is the first time I have tried this product and I am very pleased with it. It is easy to apply with the fingertips which means it can be worked into all the hard to reach areas and as it is non-toxic there are no worries. It seems to keep the water out of my boots extremely well in the wet and muddy conditions we have had lately. I also used it on my leather gloves and my hands have stayed dry. The handy sized tube is easy to carry around when travelling.

Can’t be sure if it worked… or not. I’m confused. Could be user error. I had one shoe that for some reason was thirstier than the other. So I looked into ways to fix this. Ending up with me buying this cream sealant. I applied it. Left it a few minutes. Removed the excess and let the rest dry overnight. When wiping the excess off, the waterproofing capabilities seemed present. Fast forward a week, and my first venture out in light rain… and lo and behold, I got a wet shoe? I’m confused. Can this be layered? Should I just apply more? Or what?

Easy to apply as it is quite a fluid wax compared with something more conventional, a bit runnier than toothpaste. Recommended for gortex which is main reason I opted for it and at a decent price. Boots have stayed dry so far so good.
