Wonderful stuff -
The shoes I just purchased were a little stiff and after applying the wonder balsam it made the shoes much softer and easier to break in. I also put the balsam on some old shoes and they look new again.

Great for Leather - Dr. Martens Wonder Shoe Balsam -
Dr. Martens Wonder Shoe Balsam has restored my old cowgirl boots plus my leather dance shoes. It's a bit messy to use but it made my boots and shoes look new again. Too bad it is not recommended to use to protect shoe laces. Laces seem to soil very easily and I was hoping to use the balsam to protect the laces but was told it would darken the color of any fabric, so it is only good on leather. It might also work on vinyl but I have not tried that yet.

Good goop!
I slathered this on all my shoes, not just the Docs. I think it will get me through the winter with shiny happy shoes.

Truly wonder balsam!
The thing is fabulous: I thought my Clarks Satin Shoes were dead after melted snow mixed with salt outside, the salt mark were all over the shoe. This balsam has fully recovered them. And also made all my other shoes look almost as new. Also, for each pair you need a tiny amount of this balsam, so it will last for a long time.

Wonder Balm -
The wonder balm really does wonders. I have a 2 year old pair of Docs and they look almost brand new now and I've worn them almost every day over those years and I am amazed at how well it works. I just put in on the two new pairs I bought too. It is an essential if you buy Docs!

Excellent stuff -
I just put this through it's first test, and my boots went from dirty and old-looking, to looking like the day I got them. Very easy to apply, smooth and even. Well worth the money.

I used this on all my leather shoes even my 3 year old beat up Blundstones and it worked wonders. They look almost new and now water just beads up and rolls away.

Renews the shoes!
I used Dr. Marten's wonder balsam to protect the new shoes I purchased. Curious to see what would happen, I tried it on a pair of my old favorites. I was amazed at the transformation! I soon had all of my shoes lined up for a "treatment". I wish there was a skin product that worked this well!

Nice Stuff -
Very nice, worked really well on my old leather hobo bag, it brought the color back and smoothed over the nasty scratches...it also waterproofed my new leather shoes, water and salt shed right off ...well worth the price!

This stuff is awesome!
As a lady with a tired pair of worn in Docs, and two newer pairs that had taken a beating in the snow, I was curious to see how this product would work. In a word: excellently. Just yesterday I look off my shoes and the balsam, a mix of waxes and other strange things, was doing a great job repelling the melting snow from the shoes. What excellent stuff. It also made my tired Docs look really swell, not entirely new, but really a lot better.

Awesome Product!
The Dr. Martens Wonder Shoe Balsam was recommended by a friend. Every time I use the product, my shoes look BRAND NEW. It takes 5 minutes to wipe on and buff and my Docs look awesome! I highly recommend this product to expend the life of your Dr. Martens and to keep them looking brand new!

The must have -
The insurance policy for your Doc Martens. This goop does wonders and a little goes such a long way. I broke my Docs in the hard way...and I kick myself for not getting the balsam sooner. It makes the leather so soft, leaves a brilliant luster, and a little goes such a long way!
ZAPPOS is amazing, i chose standard shipping and they upgraded to next day!! finally a company that cares about their customers!

Dr. Martens's Wonder Shoe Balsam...Excellent Product!!
It works fantastic! I was ready to get rid of a favorite leather purse of mine...it looked like it needed to be redyed, cracked and dry looking. I used the wonder balsam and couldn't believe my eyes!! The purse looks like new!! Makes the leather very soft and conditioned also. Doesn't leave any residue on the leather. Highly suggest anyone trying this product!!

Shoe Balm -
Good stuff for the boots, adds suppleness and water resistance. Needs time to soak into the leather. I would suggest at least overnight. I used to treat my boots with wax and leave them in front of a radiator to help the wax penetrate. It would be a good way to use this Balsam also. This is not for dress shoes or patent leather type materials.

Works Great! Used on my husband's leather work boots and it sealed out the water really well. Works much better than some so-called water sealers. Highly recommended.
