Leather Honey versus Beesbutter Conditioner

We frequently get questions about how Leather Honey Leather Conditioner compares to other leather conditioners on the market, and the short answer is: It doesn’t. We feel confident in saying that our product is the best leather conditioner available and has been since it was invented by our grandfather in 1968. We’ve never changed the formula, and we’ve never needed to because it stands the test of time.

What you don’t put on your leather is, in many ways, just as important as what you do. When shopping for a leather conditioner, we recommend avoiding products that contain waxes, silicone or animal products, like Beesbutter conditioner. These ingredients may seem like they restore leather but, in reality, they damage the leather over time. Wax in particular has a bad habit of building up on the surface of the leather, clogging the leather’s pores. This is a problem, as leather needs to breathe. When it can’t, it dries out, becomes brittle or even rots.

Leather Honey Leather Conditioner doesn’t contain any animal products. Despite the name, our product doesn’t contain beeswax (or honey!).

Here’s how Leather Honey compares to Beesbutter Conditioner:

One more thing: Leather care is a two-step product, and regular cleaning is as important as conditioning. We recommend cleaning as needed with Leather Honey Leather Cleaner. Every six months, you can follow a cleaning with Leather Honey Leather Conditioner.

My dog has damaged the leather on the sofa by using it as a launch pad. Leather honey restores the surface to a condition that I did think was possible. Apply it liberally and let the leather soak it up for a day or two. I reapply once or twice and treat it every few months to address new damage areas.

The best conditioner for my saddle ever. I wish I had taken a before picture. My saddle sat unused in a closet for 10 years. Leather honey made it look and feel like a well cared for, beautifully conditioned saddle. I will always have this on hand for my leather. I can’t wait to try it on my bridles and boots.

I don't know what this stuff is. It doesn't look like any leather conditioner I've ever used before, and it certainly doesn't behave the way you expect it to based on the way it appears, but leather absolutely loves this stuff! My old loafers soaked this up like it's the very water of life.
