Keeping dry has been a problem for a lot longer than that, however, Atsko has the answer in their "Sno-Seal" beeswax leather waterproofing compound. This stuff works, that's why we sell it. In fact if you are using a leather conditioning compound not made with Bee's wax you could be doing more damage than good. Use SNO-SEAL often to keep all your leather goods supple and protected from the elements. SNO-SEAL Original Beeswax Waterproofing protects leather from rain, sun, snow, and salt. The beeswax formula dries to a solid wax that "stays put" in the surface of the leather so it lasts longer. Our competitors' greases, oil, and animal products are able to migrate through the leather till they clog all the pores. These waterproofing products fill the natural spaces that are supposed to absorb perspiration and insulate. In addition, animal fats weaken and rot leather. The tannery worked hard to remove the fats and preserve the leather, so it's hard to imagine why you'd put it back on. Sno-Seal will help you feel more comfortable in Gore-Tex® fabric lined boots because it allows the Gore-Tex®-absorbed perspiration to escape out of the leather. And not only will Sno-Seal keep you warm and dry, it'll also help you from getting tired. A typical leather boot can soak up to a pound of water. So imagine how much water a whole motorcycle suit can hold when wet? Atsko also produce fabric care products for us motorbike riders or sports people in the form of "Sport-Wash" and "U-V-Killer". These products improve the performance of modern waterproof membranes (Goretex and the like) and your effective dryness, cleanliness, hygiene, and invisibility to UV at night! Enjoy dry feet all day! Prevents water from penetrating leather Lubricates & conditions leather Preserves and lengthens the life of leather Does not interfere with the natural breathability of leather. Extremely resistant to salt stains and spotting. Will not damage welts or seams Keeps leather flexible (even in freezing temps) Will not crack during continual flexing of leather. Does not deteriorate like other products containing animal fat. No silicone. Field Experiences My wife's Salomon shoes after six weeks in Switzerland. Inset is the small pot of Sno-Seal we packed with us. Atsko's claims are not fanciful waffle either. The picture here shoes my wife's Salomon joggers after six weeks walking in Switzerland in the summer of 2009, going over Alpine passes (a pass a day keeps boredom at bay...). The leather exterior on the joggers is still supple and in good condition, because I took some Sno-Seal in the little plastic pot shown and applied it with a bit of rag every couple days when the shoes were wet. The total weight for the pot of Sno-Seal and rag was a bit over 40 grams (1.4 oz), but I didn't use the full pot by any means. I would have used more if the weather had been wetter. As to weight added, I would guess I used between 5 and 10 grams for the pair of shoes each time. Some of this would have worn off after a while. Contrast that with what happened in 2007 in the French Alps when I didn't look after her shoes this way. The leather exterior got soaked through for weeks on end, which stripped any tanning out of the material. When the weather cleared, the leather dried out, shrank, and cracked. My wife was nearly crippled by the reduced volume of the shoes: her feet were badly injured with internal bleeding, which started to leak through to the soles of her feet. Fortunately we caught the problem early enough that the damage to her feet was not permanent. I took the footbeds out of her shoes to make more room in them, and she managed to hobble to the next town - which very fortunately had a shoe shop. It was a worrying experience way up in the mountains at the time though (which is why we took the Sno-Seal in 2009). My XC Nordic ski boots. In 1991 my wife and I took up Nordic cross-country ski-touring, with light leather three-pin boots. My original pair of Scarpa Nortour boots are shown here, still in excellent condition in 2009. Actually, I had to repair some of the stitching at the toe early on, but the leather has been treated with Sno-Seal before every trip, and the boots are like new. A pity I outgrew the boots (size EU 42) recently! Finally, I regularly use the Sno-Seal on yellow (pig-skin) riggers gloves for working around the farm. If I don't do this, the gloves might last a year before cracking and breaking up; with the Sno-Seal treatment, the gloves seem to last up to five years easily. Since they are not cheap, it's nice to get more bang for the buck with a little preventative maintenance. We have more SNO SEAL in our
