## Description

Grangers G-WAX | 80g | Traditional Protection, Natural Beeswax Nourishes and Waterproofs Leather Walking Boots and Outdoor Footwear : desertcart.co.uk: Fashion

Review: Really good on leather - I’ve used this on my wrangler chunky sole sandals and they’ve come up a treat. The tin was bigger than I expected, it has a nice light aroma and gives a lovely shine. Not a lot is needed as it very easily spreads and best to use an old rag as it does colour the cloth but so easy to apply. I’ve had my wrangler flip flop sandals for ten years and they’ve been through a good few scrapes and beatings but they’re still going strong and now look as good as new, though the wax also does give a slightly darker look but that wears off eventually. At such a good price, I definitely recommend this wax.
Review: Good stuff....been using it for years. - First off... a word about the people who supplied me via desertcart. In this instance it was Active Outdoors (also possibly known as Spinn.co.uk...both names featured during my correspondence with them). My delivery went slightly awry as the parcel was split and only one tin was inside instead of the two I ordered. Having contacted the supplier, who hardly ever have issues with the strength of the packaging, I suspect the parcel had been tampered with somewhere in the Royal Mail system (there was a clean-ish cut right across the package which didn't look as though it could easily have happened accidentally), and I did make representations to the Post Office, however the suppliers responded to my email almost straight away and kindly offered to send a replacement - which they did and which arrived literally the next day, having been sent First Class post. Absolutely first class service from them - thank you. And back to the item.... As per the title. Used it on boots mainly and never had cause to regret it. There is currently a choice of numerous products to treat your boots and other leather outdoor wear with. As well as G Wax you could use dubbin (both the hard 'Woly Wax' and the soft 'Cherry Blossom' dubbin....see my reviews), or Nikwax Aqueous Liguid, then there's Neatsfoot Oil or Hydrophane Leather Dressing Oil as well as ordinary shoe polish - either black, brown or neutral. I honestly think you could use any of the above (and I have used all the above) and you'd preserve the leather but I'd say the G wax is as easy and as effective as any and there would be no possibility of the dubbin rotting stitching, as per the old wives tale. Certainly it's the one almost universally recommended by manufacturers and it wouldn't prejudice any warranty you might have whereas not everyone loves dubbin. The Nikwax Aqueous Liquid is good for wet boots, after you've cleaned and rinsed them, but takes a while to treat the boots all over as you really need to brush it on then work it in with your fingers....but it does soak in well and is good stuff. If using G Wax or dubbin I've always warmed up the boots, whilst applying it, with a hairdryer or electric paint stripper set on low and that helps the stuff to soak into the stitching. The G Wax does polish up quite well albeit not as well as ordinary shoe polish does. Lastly I routinely treat fabric or suede or nubuck boots with G Wax (and sometimes dubbin) and have NEVER had a scrap of trouble...whether it be Goretex lined boots or otherwise. In my opinion nubuck/suede/fabric boots need a good treatment of waterproofer as per above and none of my boots make me sweat unduly and are all waterproof. The spray on suede stuff isn't worth buying (IMO) so ALL my boots get regularly maintained with proper treatments. (And I have to admit, I've got a few!).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this change the colour of the leather? I've just bought a pair of Fly London red leather boots and want to protect them before going out in them**
A: I have been using G Wax on my dark brown boots 2 or 3 times a year for the past two years and can discern no change in colour. Two things about G wax, if it doesn't all sink in to the leather, it dries on top and leaves a shiny surface so that you can see the bits you haven't done. Also, when you put it on, you need to heat the wax with a hair dryer to get it soft and then use your fingers to rub it in. When it gets cold, you might see white deposits of wqx that hasn't sunk in but it buffs off easily. So,simple answer is that G Wax will not change the colour of your boots, but if you end of trailing through as much mud as I seem to, it probably wouldn't have mattered anyway.

**Q: Will this wax be adequate protection for walking about in uk snow conditions? or is the granger's 'paste wax' more suited to that type of activity?**
A: Hi my experience has been of using this wax in wet grass conditions while playing golf but needs to be applied each time to be effective. Using in snow would be taking it to a much higher level. I'm not so sure. Happy hiking! W. Morrow.

**Q: Can I use this on smooth leather shoes? Not boots, but they are leather, pretty traditional looking shoes**
A: Well, I would say that you can purely going on my experience of doing so!!  I've used it on two pairs of ordinary leather shoes with no problems at all.  When you apply the wax it does look a bit dull but is easily buffed up to achieve the more normal look of polished leather shoes. I hope this helps.

**Q: Hi is this all you need does it keep boots supple i? ll be using saddle soap first then need a water proofed and then a suppler ty so many items**
A: seem's to keep my boots nice and supple..and water proof. Apply every month out of habit....which should extend the life of my boots! I'd just give it a go as it's pretty cheap stuff!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality wax but does darken leather
*by U***4 on 20 January 2021*

The wax is fairly easy to apply and leaves a nice finish. I'd recommend using a microfibre cloth as paper towel or J cloth tends to break up and leave a bit of lint / paper (my fault for being impatient!). I have to say it does darken the leather slightly more than I expected it would. I've attached the stock picture of the boot (which I have to say is a true likeness) and the other picture is of 2 layers of wax. This may lighten in time once it's fully dried and been worn in but it's worth bearing in mind if you are paricular about how your boots look. I haven't yet tried it them in the rain but the thickness of the wax makes me think it will repel water quite nicely. I'm interested to see how it will do against mud as i'm concerned it may be quite sticky for dirt! Will wait and see. Overall if you're going to be wearing your boots outdoors in all weathers then this is a sensible product to get even if it does dull the leather a little.
