Mink Oil Enriched Grease for Leather Goods | Waterproof & Nourishing | Silicone-Enhanced for Flexibility | Suitable for Leather & Textile Surfaces | Transparent, 100 ml

Excellent product, purchased a bag that was tobacco brown, quite light in colour, after one application the colour was darkened to what I wanted.

I used these on my work boots which are not of exceptional quality but good enough. Prior to application they were not waterproof at all, and after a couple of applications they are as waterproof as you can reasonably expect leather boots to be. I am a ranger for a country park with two wet meadows, so I am often walking through tall wet grass, which would normally leave boots soaking for those who don't know - I have not had a problem with this since using this product. Obviously this does not make boots 100% waterproof - stand ankle deep in water and you'll still get wet. But for most people's purposes this is perfect. I would recommend them as someone who works outside all day - when my boots get wet, they stay wet - this product has made all the difference in the world to my comfort levels throughout the day. It slightly darkened the leather of my boots but not in a significant way, or more so than a similar product would. I reapply every couple of months and it works great - smear on to the leather, work in, leave to absorb for fifteen minutes, and then wipe dry. I have heard that too frequent applications can soften the leather too much, but avoid this and you should be fine.

I've previously reviewed this item before and this is the second time I've used it on my boots - admittedly I may have used it too little. But I avoid wearing my boots in rain anyway and they only come out in autumn/winter. Just to show the way in which the oil darkens the leather. The first time I did this I panicked but no oil/conditioner is going to leave the colour unaffected. The boots darken but with time and wear the original colour comes out, as you can see in the first photo. Can be messy to apply if you're not careful, but I'd recommend this and it's clear from other reviews that this product has been used on different types of leather footwear.

Excellent product.Preserves leather goods,and is extremely water repellent.

I used this to help break in some Red Wing Moc Toe boots and help make them more water resistant around the seams, and it worked on both counts. I’ve also used it on my old (10 years) Timberland boots - it helped bring that leather back to life, but be warned, it did darken the light leathers significantly. I’ve also used this on my Dark Brown Belstaff leather jacket. Again, it darkened the jacket, but the leather feels much more supple and flexible and the small dry lines have disappeared. It’s good stuff; use sparingly and remember it will darken your lighter leathers.

Seems to be fine

Bought after doing research. Absolute a1 product. On leather one application gave deep lustre and hid scratches really well. Honestly. Not new shoes but renewed character of well loved shoes just with ome application never mind polishing out further.

it works...yippee! no more creaking & squeeking, simply apply with a clean cloth, rub in, wait 5-10 mins & buff ( using a different cloth ). there is no smell or greasy feel afterwards.

I bought the oil for my timberland. The shine comes out again instantly. Reason why I bought the oil was to eliminate the mild dew that was growing on it, the oil shines and protects it from mold. I used it and it lasts for the time in the cabinets and for my other leather shoes as well. The only problem I had with my timberland was that once the fungus invades the shoe, the ugly stains that were caused by the fungus cannot be removed. Hope that helps you define what the oil can do for you. Enjoy the item, it’s good for protection if u take care of all your shoes from start to the end

Buen producto. En tiempo y forma. Paquete sellado y nuevo

Tengo las botas desde más de 3 años y reconozco que he probado varias grasas diferentes en ellas con buenos resultados. Algunas de caballo de diferentes marcas, otras de cera de abeja… y la verdad que la grasa de visón de Tarrago me ha sorprendido por su facilidad a la hora de aplicar y la poca cantidad que necesitas para cubrir toda la bota. Siempre suelo aplicar con un trapo que tengo desde ni se sabe y está completamente impregnado de tanto uso, pero esta vez he decidido hacerlo con las manos y no he gastado prácticamente nada y he cubierto las botas de sobra, de hecho me lo he flipado y con mucho menos habría bastado, aún así, como dije, no he gastado casi nada. Decir que las fotos están hechas recién aplicada la grasa, y al día siguiente una vez secada. El resultado es muy bueno y cumple perfectamente con lo que se espera. De momento y después de haber utilizado un sin fin de grasas, esta me gusta y mucho. ACTUALIZACIÓN Ahora ha tocado el turno a una chaqueta de cuero Belstaff. La chaqueta mostraba un cuero envejecido y aunque no estaba demasiado falta de hidratación, sí que iba necesitando un tratamiento. La chaqueta después de muchos años de uso había dejado el cuero de una forma muy peculiar y bonita, por lo tanto quería que el producto mantuviera en la medida de lo posible estos signos de desgaste y no oscureciera demasiado el color. Calenté con un secador el bote de grasa para que se pudiera trabajar mejor con ella. Ya que se trata de una chaqueta, no quería que dejara restos de producto sobrante como puede ocurrir en las botas. Con la grasa hecha más líquida y con mis manos unté bien la chaqueta y se absorbía muy muy bien. El resultado ha sido magnífico. La chaqueta ha mantenido prácticamente el color que tenía, ha quitado alguna marca de posible desgaste y ha ganado una barbaridad en suavidad y en flexibilidad. Un 10 para el producto. En las primeras fotos podéis ver el antes de la chaqueta. En las segundas como quedó una vez untada. En la terceras el resultado después de un día entero de secado. La chaqueta muestra el mismo cuero envejecido pero con una flexibilidad, suavidad e impermeabilidad muy a destacar.

Nourris parfaitement mes boots en cuir !

Prodotto perfetto, ammorbidisce e impermeabilizza le scarpe in vera pelle e cuoio, ridona il colore naturale alla calzatura. Consiglio: pulite le scarpe prima con il sapone da sella sempre marca Tarrago una volta asciugato applicate il mink oil, il risultato sarà ancora piu duraturo e perfetto. (le scarpe in foto hanno un anno o più di vita e sono state utilizzate in ogni condizione acqua, terra, fango, neve) Consiglio inoltre di appricarlo anche su scarpe in pelle o cuoio nuove di scatola per ammorbidirle.
