A Great all around leather color and conditioning care product!
This is my first time with any 'leather cream' product, but I felt that on my next pair of leather work boots, it would be a good idea. So I did my best to research several products, and I wanted a colored product, so I picked this Meltonian Cream Shoe Polish with Natural Wax & Oils, Brown Shoe Polish (Brick color) for Leather, which has a long history.I am attaching some pictures to this review. I bought another new pair of leather works boots recently, which were marked down in price, due to being a bit scuffed up. No big deal I thought, as they were going to shortly be living a pretty rough life anyway. Then it snowed, before I wore them out and to work for the first time. So I decided that since shoes and boot have now gotten extremely high priced recently, compared to years past. I not only wanted to add some extra longevity to them, but also some added waterproofing because of the recent snowfall.I have read through many of the reviews on this product here on Amazon, and I do see that some people misunderstand the prime purpose of this type of product. This Meltonian Cream Shoe Polish with Natural Wax & Oils, is a great all around product, not simply a 'polish' for shine. It provides some leather conditioners, which keep the leather a bit softer and flexible, along with some oils for additional water resistance, along with a bit of wax for polish and some water resistance. So it's not like a Kiwi wax product, which does nothing for conditioning, and is strictly a polish and water resistance overlay. This product soaks into leather, not simply lay on top of it.The boots in the pictures I am attaching are still new and unworn. After I applied this product to the boots, I let them sit for a day. Then gave them a good buffing, and then added an additional layer of a waxy Kiwi boot polish like product. So now I have the colored conditioner underneath, and a bit of a brown wax shell on top.I was also amazed with how far just a little bit of this product went. These new boots were a bit thirsty, and are big. These are size 11 double-wide steel toed leather work boots. As you can see in one of the pictures I am attaching. After giving them both (in the end) a good brushed in coating of this product. I only ended up using about 15% of the jar. Now that's fantastic!Only in one of the pictures I am including, have both boots been conditioned. You will notice that one boot is slightly darker than the other. That is because the lighter boot had been conditioned for about an hour already, by the time I had a chance to finish the second boot. So it had more soak-in time, and lightened up some. The darker boot, was only moments after being finished.None of the pictures show the boots after having been brushed-off, after the application.Four of the 'two boot' pictures, are of one boot coated, and one not.One picture shows how much of the Meltonian Cream is left over, after having done both boots.One picture shows both boots done, and again, one is darker due to it having just been finished getting its application.As for the ''strong smell' that some reviews have mentioned. I had zero issues with with that. I did do them in the two car garage with the doors closed. Now maybe I am less susceptible to the odor, due to much of the time being in a blue collar shop environment?I know that I will be returning to use this product again. It really is fantastic stuff!

My new go to shoe polish
I have a pair of new balance mountain boots I wear to work most days. I work in an office and construction jobsites. It took a while to find a matching color for my boots, but this polish is near perfect match. The polish is creamy and allows for very easy application. My boots were extremely scuffed on the toes and heels. This polish rejuvenated the leather and brought back a like new shine. It is a great value to me for the money because it helped prolong my pair of boots work life. I will buy this again when I run out.

Necessary for Leather
I bought a pair of Leather shoes that scuff and wear quickly. They were expesive and I wanted the to last. I found that the Beige color not only restored and brought the shoes back to look new. Not only are they new looking but they seem protected from the elements and wear better. This product is very effective in restoration and protection of leather. This is a very good product and value.

Great polish, but packaging not good
Polish was delivered with top off. Glad it was wax and not liquid. Since it’s very warm outside, the wax did not have time to harden. Better quality control needed.

Fantastic Product!
I've used Meltonian products for decades (really!) after experiencing lackluster results with other brands. Meltonian puts the color back in scuffed or scratched leather products, and it's long-lasting. After a short drying time, I use a soft cloth to buff it to a nice shine. Application couldn't be simpler; it helps protect leather if it gets wet, and a small amount goes a very long way, making it an economically priced product, in my opinion. A++++

Great product! Moisturising and highly pigmented
I bought this shoe polish to rejuvenate some white sneakers that had seen better days. It's like the consistency of a skin cream, very moisturizing, soaks right into the leather. I like that you can either let it dry matte or buff it to a nice shine. The cream is highly pigmented, and color is buildable with multiple layers. Plus the service from Meltonian was amazing after USPS lost the package! The only caveat is the mild petroleum-like smell. Use in a well ventilated room and shouldn't be an issue. All told, a far superior product to the waxy tins i've used in the past.
