    Wonder Balsam is Awesome! I've used this before on my Docs and they really make a tired pair of shoes look brand new again. It's great. Since it's what Dr Martens recommends, then I like to use it for my Docs. I figure they would know best.

    Brands I'd also recommend: Docs.

    Wonder Balsam is great stuff for whatever ails. My son told me about its qualities, so I bought a jar. It's great on smooth leathers: shoes, belts, jackets, furniture. Although it's a little bland on bread, it made a 10-year old LL Bean braid belt look new. It doesn't stain or rub off on my clothes, but it's a little too stiff for my hair. Buy a jar and use it. I'm still searching for things to put it on. Like Dr. Martens footwear, overpriced, but what else you gonna do with your money? Note: just kidding about the bread & hair.

    Wonder Balsam is the perfect name. The first thing I used this for was a very comfortable and worn in pair of 2 year old doc martens. I was worried at first, I didn't want them to be shiny, just to look a little newer, and it did just that!!

    About Dr. Martens

    of New Styles!

    Notify me when new styles of Dr. Martens are added to the website

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    One of the most respected and well-know icons in the world, Dr. Martens' boots, shoes, work shoes, and sandals continue to set the standard for durability, comfort and fashion. Dr. Martens's trademark look and quality construction has been recognized world-wide since 1960.

    Where the classic 1460 style was being used by mailmen, union workers, and factory workers, it soon became popular among the masses. The 1460 continues to thrive, symbolizing individualism, originality, and taps into a individual's unique style who's willing to make that bold statement.

    Dr. Martens doesn't think of itself as a "shoe" brand, but rather a way of thinking, a self-expression if you must. Popularly known as Doc Martens, they allow you to feel free to rock your grunge shorts, spike up your hair to the heavens, showoff your body art, whatever floats your boat. So whether you call them Dr. Martens, Doc Martens or just Docs there are no limits to your creativity.

    A must have for your worn Martens. I have a pair of 5 year old Martens. I hardly wear them due to the dull texture of the leather upper. But after applying the Shoe Balsam, the pair is back on the rotation! Oh what a difference! Looks new again.

    distorts color of boot good stuff in terms of protection, but i found it distorted the color as i used it more & more. It also attracts dust & dirt a lot more & if you get it on the yellow stitching on the sole....it gets that really ugly-dirty very fast

    Brands I'd also recommend: highly reccomend

    Amazing Stuff I was skepticle when I ordered this wonder balsam, THEN I tried it. A little bit does go a long way. I've used it so far on 8pr of docs and 3 leather jackets (1 being lambs skin). Truely amazing stuff. Brought color back and took out the "cracked" look. If you use too much or wear the treated item immediately after application I suppose it does attract dirt. Let it sit overnight and no problems. My 2 cents.

    Brands I'd also recommend: A second jar of Wonder Balsam

    Wonder is right! This stuff is amazing, I put it on some of my old leather shoes that I had almost given up on and they look fabulous now! Your brand new shiny shoes don't really need it, but man does it revive old dull leather. I'm so glad I bought it!

    I first tried Dr. Martins Wonder Balsam several years ago when my teenage son was really into Dr. Martin shoes/boots. I believe at that time it was only about $5. It's great and goes a long way. Everyone in the family has used it on something or other. Believe it or not we still have a little left, but are scraping the bottom of the jar. First time I've seen it since and I'm definitely ordering more. It works great on most anything leather.

    Awesome goo! Wonder Shoe Balm is exactly the thing to use for any kind of leather. -It spiffs up old, scuffed shoes and softens the leather. The person who was joking about using it on bread and hair isn't completely off. I find it's great for moisturizing cuticles!

    Awesome stuff! I had an old leather whip my Dad gave me (very old). It was in really bad shape -all dried out and brittle. I put the Wonder Balsam on it and it was literally like new! Amazing! If you need to give any of your leather a revamp, these is the stuff to do it.

    Good For Livening Up A Pair of Well-Worn Shoes - I had a pair of scuffed and well-worn red leather shoes that I used this stuff on. While it didn't make my shoes look brand new, it definitely did make the color of the shoes look richer and cleaned some of the dirt off. A lot of the scuff and dark marks remained, but then again, a lot of them were removed, and my shoes do look better after the use of this balm. For the most part, this is a very good product, and I would definitely use it again to freshen up my shoes, but I'm not sure if I would have considered this balsam to have worked "wonders" on my shoes.

    Fantastic stuff! This Wonder Balsam is fabulous! It makes new leather more supple and "well-loved" leather look and feel rejuvenated. Doesn't replace shoe polish, however, but still a must have!

    Great product for all leather goods. This stuff is great for conditioning and protecting all your leather goods. I've used it for years on baseball mits, jackets, car seats, tool pouches, luggage, and of course shoes and boots. Conditions, protects, waterproofs. A must have for anyone who uses and abuses leather goods.

    The shoe saver - It is a very effective shoe care product. I used it not only on my Dr. Martens shoes but also other leather shoes. The best thing is you don't need to use much of the product. A little goes a long way.
