Not just for shoes!5
I originally ordered Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam to keep my shoes looking good. I own a pair of Dr. Martens 8053CH 5-Eyelet Gibsons in Gaucho Crazy Horse. They're an oily leather, the type of leather Wonder Balsam is made for. Whenever my shoes get scuffed or start to dry out, a little Wonder Balsam works wonders.

Recently I purchased a leather jacket made from Italian oiled leather. It was pre-distressed, and although it looked great already, some areas were more distressed than I would have liked. Today I broke out the Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam, applied it all over the jacket using the included sponge (use sparingly -- a little goes a long way) and the jacket looks even better now than it did on day one.

To anyone wearing shoes, jackets, bags and/or using other items made with oiled leathers, Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam gets my highest recommendation.

Great Product5
I agree with the other reviewers. Have used a single container very successfully for several years. A small amount goes a long way. Have used it on most all colors of leather shoes (not white) and prefer it to all other types of polish. Great to travel with. Finally running out and looking to buy a second container.

Keeps smooth leathers looking new5
This is a great product, one that I haven't found a substitute for. It is rather expensive for a few ounces, but that will last a couple years for several pairs of shoes, which makes it worth it.

There are a lot of other things that you could treat your shoes and boots with, but what people don't realize is that things like mink oil actually DECREASE the waterproofness of leather, as well as OVERSOFTEN. Why is this bad? Consider a hiking boot in which you want to maintain a little stiffness for support. You need a combination oil/wax product to maintain the leather's properties.

This product also eliminates scuff marks, just rub some in and buff with a brush, and you will be lookin' good. I noticed that DM also added a fragrance to this stuff, which was totally unessary because it had no odor before, but maybe their marketing department said they'd sell more if it smelled nice. Whatever, I still swear by it!
