Morning all - I know lots of members like a good quality boot and, as I’ve got my first new pair of Timberlands in a decade, I’d like to start as I mean to go on in caring for them.
In the pic you’ll see the new black pair and a brown pair that I’ve had for ten years. I always used Timberland wax on the brown ones but wondered what wax, oil or dubbin you guys use? And what would you recommend for mine?
Thanks.
This for my Redwings (the smooth pairs anyway) it smell nice as well.
This for my Courteney’s (to be honest it is the best stuff I have found but almost impossible to get over here) it’s a mix of bees wax and paraffin wax.
For everything else, especially wet weather shooting / outdoor boots....

Kiwi make black dubbin ( I think they call it a sports waterproofer and have a pair of football boots on the tin )
Not sure if they make a clear version you can use on any boots but worth looking into because they don't overcharge like some fancy brands do.
I have a selection for different boots,Courtney,Timberland,RM Williams and Dubarry,not found a great difference between them to be honest.
I like (and use) Nikwax products:
- Conditioner for Leather
- Waterproofing Wax for Leather
- or their other products for smooth leather...link
