Customer Reviews Dr. Martens Wonder Shoe Balsam 2.87 oz

Good Stuff, Easily Applied, Great Conditioner - The handy container includes an easy-to-use applicator. Wonder Balsam conditions and waterproofs and because it's neutral is good for all color leathers. The mellow shine is great for casual shoes. All-in-all, a very good product at a reasonable price.

No enthusiasn - If this is indeed better than cheaper domestic preparations, I need to be told why. My tentative reaction is that the product does not justify its high price.

Easy to Apply - It gave my shoe that nice genuine leather look.

I haven't used this yet... ...I haven't used this yet but I bet it is a fine fine balsam! Wondrous even!

Dr. Martens's Wonder Balsam is one of the smartest products i've ever bought. I used it on one of my leather pair of shoes and they look almost like brand new. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to turn their old shoes new without the help of a professional.

What's in this stuff? Why pay this much for shoe gunk when a can of mink oil would be half the price? Good question I did, and I'm not sure why. But, it does a good job of removing scuffed areas of smooth leather, as well as waterproofing. The main difference I can see between this and a mink oil product is that it does not darken the leather as much as an oil-based product. Your shoes will be restored more to the color they were new, instead of looking liked they'be been soaked in oil. At least that's how I justify spending this much!

Great Stuff! Dr. Martens's Wonder Shoe Balsam is the best! After using it on a pair of shoes, several co-workers ask if I was wearing new shoes! If you want to bring new life back into an old pair of shoes, try Dr. Martens!

Dr Martens Wonder Shoe Balsam - My overall rating is 5 stars. Comfort does not apply. The Balsam is easy to apply, slightly darkens and softens the leather, protects the leather against scuffs, protects against water and salt marks and provides some waterproofing. I scuffed my shoes several times and just took my finger and rubbed it out. I would highly recommend this product.

miracle stuff - Great stuff to aid in breaking in your new docs or making your old ones look less ragged. I've been using this on my docs for years, and it really works wonders, I definitely recommend it for any doc owner. Zappos is great too! Super fast shipping, good communication via email! I highly recommend them and the wonder balsam!

New shoe in a bottle - I put this balm on my new Dr.. martins as soon as I got them, and after daily use they still look great (I live in the North East, and there is plenty of snow and salt but the shows still look new). I also applied the balm to old shoes, and it instantly took them from old to new looking again. If you have nice leather [shoes] you definitely need to protect it with this.

Very Good Product - Excellent product. It revived a pair of loafers that I was planning on replacing. No need to, they look better than new now. NOTE: Leather Only

GREAT PRODUCT - I received this product and tried them on a very old pair of docs. The result was amazing, the shoes look brand new too bad there isn't a product to make the inside look brand new.

Great Stuff! Use it ounce every two weeks and it keeps your shoes looking new and shiney!

I've had my Docs for two years and they were certainly starting to show some wear. I bought the Dr. Martens shoe balm to breathe some life into my well-worn pair and that is exactly what it did! My shoes look like brand new and all the markings have disappeared. I've bragged about this product so much that the biggest problem I have is that everyone I know keeps using mine and I can't seem to keep it in my hands long enough to use it again!

I have my trusty pair of Dr Martens and they needed a shine. This product worked great, shined and coated them and they look brand new!

Wonder Shoe Balsam - This stuff is great, had my boots 3 weeks and got this huge scratch across the toe. Rubbed some Woner Balsam on the toe and it disappeared. Great Stuff, I am glad I ordered it with my boots.

Wonder Stuff!! I tried this balsam after reading the numerous reviews on this site. It's all true!! I got this home and was amazed at what they did for my old Doc's... I tried it on everthing leather I have. Works great! And the balsam doesn't even look like I put a dent in it. It even "fixed" a pair of shoes that I thought were ruined from a spray-on leather protector made by Wilson Leather. Good stuff!

Wonder Shoe Balsam - worth buying! I bought the Wonder Shoe Balsam at the same time I bought my Docs, and it is great for keeping the leather soft and supple and protecting it from moisture. I usually buff it after applying. Great product!

I swear by it - This is the third tin of the wonder shoe balsam that I have owned and each of 5 pairs of Docs that I have owned have lasted an incredibly long time. The balsam does a great job of keeping the shoes in great condition. Every pair of Docs that I have thrown out have been because of either odor or sole wear, but not for leather wear. With this I have never owned a pair of docs that have lasted less than 5 years.

DM"s wonder Balsam - I really like this product it keeps my Doc.'s lookin' good

The perfect accessory for the perfect shoes - I ordered this on a whim with my first pair of Doc Martens and found that it speeded up the breaking-in time enormously. Tried the Docs on when I got them and they were almost too stiff to wear at all--- then I rubbed in a generous amount of the Balsam per the instructions and left them alone for 2-3 days; the next time I tried the boots on they were perfectly comfortable. I'd recommend this to anyone breaking in a new pair of Docs or other stiff leather shoes.

Dr Marten's shoe balsam - I hesitated at first at the price but it seemed safer then a waterproof spray that tend to change the color of the soles. Made my shoes look like new ! No discoloration.

Great - I have a pair of old dock's that looked really beat up and I almost got rid of them. I used this product and they look practicaly new again I love this stuff.

My dog ate it - I didn't get a chance to even open the jar, but apparently my dog really liked it! I have used it in the past and it's a great product.

Great Balsam - I really like the Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam. It is just what I was looking for to take care of my leather goods. I'm even using it for my car leather upholstery. Thanks again.
