Works like you hope it will!
I used this on a pair of leather Birkenstock booties I found at Goodwill. The leather had a grayish cast to it and I wasn’t sure it was fixable, but after treatment with Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam, they look beautiful! I would say better than new and they feel soft and conditioned. Waterproof as well. Highly recommend this product!

Good product
Love this stuff. I use it to shape up some of my leather items that look beat up including bags, shoes, wallets etc. it seems to give a less worn and beat up appearance and probably moisturizes the leather. All in all a good product.

Works great on everything leather I have tried.
I am pleased with this products performance. I have used it on leather jackets old & new. It definitely gave some new life to aged & worn leather. I have used this on shoes, purses, & leather wrapped decor. I have not had a bad experience with it yet. Once it dries, the leather looks close to its original finish/ sheen. It doesn't leave much of a greasy look or feel as long as you don't use too much.

My favorite conditioner for leather
This stuff is like a miracle balm on leather and lasts forever. Easy to use with a small sponge and restores scratched leather to new looking. Great protector too. Way better than shoe polish.

It does the job.
I own a pair of church vintage monkeys that I bought back in February of this year. I pretty much brought them wherever I went, because they were comfortable, seemingly durable, and I liked how they look. Plus, I'm not buying a pair of 140 dollar shoes just to keep in the house all day. I went on walks with my dog almost everyday, went back and forth from school, put them through blizzards, pouring rain, hikes, flooding... And I'm proud and pleased to say that they still look great. If I lose these pair of boots I'd cry for a year. I'm not afraid of scuffing, scratching, creasing- nah, my boots, my power. But I wanted to take care of them the best I could, because god knows that accidentally stepping into a pile of my dogs poop isn't gonna do good to them. Dr Martens wonder basalm comes in a rather small container. It's halfway filled, due to the other half of it storing the little sponge they give to you. It seems like enough for maybe a year or two, but I'm not sure. I followed the instructions on the Dr martens website (google "how to use wonder basalm") and bam: boots covered in wax. The only complaint I have is that the wax smells like a gas station (oil, car wax), and the container was a little dissapointing, but other than that, I'm satisfied. My boots are shiny as hell and the creasing softened. The scratched have largely gone away and the scuffs partially. It's not a miracle worker, but it does seem to make your boots better. IMO it does better on non creased leather by making it more shiny and smooth. Now I just need to figure out how to clean my laces.

Impressive Leather Care – Restores Look and Feel
I’ve been using the Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam on several pairs of leather boots and I’m really impressed with how well it works. It noticeably improves the look of the leather by bringing out a richer, deeper color, without making it too shiny. The functionality is spot-on—it softens stiff leather, adds a subtle waterproof layer, and helps prevent cracking. The build quality of the balm itself feels premium, and the tin is compact but lasts longer than expected. After applying it, the leather feels much softer and more supple, and the boots look refreshed without losing their rugged charm. A must-have if you want to preserve both the look and durability of your leather footwear.

Favorite Leather cleaner for years...it's amazing...I love it!
Yes...as we do use this product for Dr. Martens but ALSO use it for my closet full of COACH, Chanel and other random selection of purses/handbags. I have been using this product for 15 years and it will bring any piece of leather back to life. It also protects, softens...beautifies! I have found second hand, retro, vintage handbags that needed a little TLC and I simply rub a bit of my 'hidden secret' to them and suddenly they are the hit of the party. It will take a dull, lifeless item and breath life back into it...literally. The photos are of a Coach purse I found at a local thrift store that was pretty worn until I cleaned it up a bit and used the balm on. It is not even a leather material and it still had an amazing result. Women...buy this product you will not regret it. It will not only bring your items back to life but you will be the hit of the party!

Great product, highly recommend!
This stuff works great! I’m an over the road trucker and I am hard on my boots. I trudge the through mud, rain, snow, ice, salt and all types of weather. This past winter season my boots got scuffed up and dirtied pretty bad. This balsam has made my work boots look like new again! I wiped my boots down with a damp rag to get most of the dirt off before applying the balsam. You don’t get a full tin of product but I assure you a little goes a long way. I am confident this tin will last a year at least. That’s a pretty good deal considering the cost in my opinion. 10/10 highly recommend!

Small but good
I wish it came full, for the price it’s really despairing that it’s so small and only comes with the half of the container. It does work well though, not only for Dr. Martens but any leather shoe, I finally can wear the pumps I got second hand without hurting my wide toes

Muy necesario
Lo compré después del primer uso que le dí a un par de dr martens nuevas. Antes del bálsamo las botas eran sumamente duras e incómodas, después de ponerles bálsamo se hicieron más suaves y nunca más volvieron a doler. Ayudan a conservar la piel y les da una estética de nuevas, me gusta que no cambie su aspecto.
