Obenauf's Leather Oil 16oz. - Restores Dry Leather - Made in the US

Efficient, effective and odor friendly

I'm definitely was ignorant to leather care, and my expensive leather jacket became old looking, dried and greying. One treatment with this oil and my jacket was revived from the slight water damage over the years. It has a smell, but it isn't offensive. Highly recommend if you have an old leather jacket you want to wear again

I probably didn't need to order the product in some a high quantity. Using on black leather products but even still it puts a nice shine whilst giving it that added weather protection. I was surprised how far you can stretch this oil across your leather to keep 'er going for years to come. The consistency of the oil is not as thick as what I was expecting. Love it so far. However, if you aren't conditioning leather in large quantities you could probably so with ordering a smaller quantity.

Amazing results. Gave life to Old leather belts

I got some of this when it was a lightning deal to try on the 43 year old leather seats in my Series 1 Jag XJ6. Previously I swore by Leatherique and I still think the system is great for cleaning leather but I was never really happy with the results it had on my ancient interior as far as softening is concerned. Leatherique's system did a great job of removing the old, loose color and it was a little softer but the rear seat was never that soft and I did it at least 3 times - including applying the conditioner on a hot summer day and closing up the car to let it bake in as they suggest. Well I got the larger bottle of Obenaufs and used most of it on the rear seat. Keep in mind that the seat was already clean thanks to Pristine Clean so I skipped the cleaning step. All I did was apply a generous coat and massage it in. Within a few minutes it was completely soaked in. I just kept doing that - applying, letting it soak in and reapplying for days until the bottle was gone. At first I thought it might just be evaporating but the little bit I got on the vinyl areas of the interior never disappeared - just layed on top of the vinyl. So now that rear seat is softer than it ever was using Leatherique... this is hard to explain but it even looks 'plumper' and more hydrated. And it also darkened the blue leather - which was really tired looking - even in the areas where the Leatherique had removed most of the color. I'm truly surprised at how well this stuff worked and I've been driving/restoring ancient cars for my entire life. I intend to keep applying the Obenaufs until the seat won't accept any more. And the bonus: The interior smells AMAZING!! I've always liked how Leatherique smelled but it doesn't really smell like leather. With the Obenaufs the interior of my nearly half-a-century-old car smells like NEW LEATHER!!! I don't know if it's the Obenauf's or the old leather hides coming back from their old, dry, neglected dormant state. Whatever it is, I can't get enough of it. I read a couple reviews before I bought it saying that it smelled bad - those people must need to see an ear, nose and throat man or they don't like the smell of leather. To sum up, I'd still suggest giving your leather interior a good cleaning and initial conditioning with Leatherique but finish it up with Obenauf's. I wish it came in a larger bottle cause I have 4 old cars with leather interiors that are gonna get the treatment. Personally I don't care in the slightest that the Obenauf's darkens the leather (it does). I think that's a good thing actually. Oh yeah.. it also worked really well on my leather Redback boots but cars is more important than boots so yeah.... if you have a few drops leftover from doing an interior let the boots have some.

I had heard and seen multiple reviews of the Obenauf's Leather Oil, all of which gave it high praise. I have a pair of Zamberlan leather boots that I've owned since 2003, and I had been a little lax in their maintenance as of late. Previously, I had used a beeswax product that I massaged into the leather, but it was clear that the leather had dried out (starting to show signs of cracking in flex points) and needed something that penetrated the pores better. So, I pulled the trigger on the Obenauf's. Within a few seconds of starting to apply the finish, I recognized how well the leather was taking the product. It was soaking it up like a sponge, and to my amazement, my boots went back to their original deep brown colour. Were it not for all of the nicks and scuffs from 16+ years of use, you'd never know they weren't next to new. Beyond that, water is now beading off the leather again, and that was with only one treatment. I'll be applying another treatment soon to make sure I have a lasting finish. I'm a believer now in all of the hype. It's incredible. I've already added some of their other products to my wishlist and will pull the trigger on them before too long. I highly recommend buying this, particularly for leather boots!
