Question 1

Can it be applied to the interior (including the shaft part) of my leather boots? (Leather lining)

Accepted Answer

Yes it can.  But SHOULD it be is the question.  Depending upon what style of boots you are speaking of.  I have combat-type boots that have no inner liner.  It's just the single piece of leather that is both the outside and the inside of the upper part of the boot.  It that case, the inner side may not be necessary but it also would depend upon how far gone the boot is to start with.  But on Cowboy boots with an inner liner, you definately want to treat the inside with conditioner.  The liner is a very thin layer of leather that will deteriorate over time with leg sweat and dirt.  The guys who wear their pants tucked in their boots always have much better looking (almost new) liners when the rest of the boot is gone for good.    From the answer that says to wipe it down with vinegar, I'd be cautious. Vinegar is an ACID.  Just because he's been doing it for 40 years could mean that he's been doing it WRONG for 40 years.  I clean saddles for a living. Some have been sitting in the dirt-floor barn for 40-50 years and are caked with dust, humidity and more dust - sometimes thickerr than the leather itself.  I use nothing but Murphey's oil soap & water 50/1 ratio to start with and then Skidmore's (I'd never heard of Leather Honey before) But Skidmores is another family leather conditioner.  Its a lot more pricey than Leather Honey so I'll give LH a comparison test now that I know about it.

Question 2

Is this good if your objective is waterproofing ? (western cowboy boots) I was also looking at Chamberlains Water Protectant

Accepted Answer

Leather Honey does not waterproof -- it is water repellent. We recommend against water proofing because that clogs the leather's pores and leather needs to breathe. For most of our customers, the water repellent properties of Leather Honey are more than sufficient.

Question 3

anyone know what the ingredients are?

Accepted Answer

They do not use animal ingredients. From their website, "P.S. Leather Honey is free of animal products, silicone and solvents as well. And you can always buy it here, or at Amazon." I was concerned after another person stated they thought it had animal ingredients.

Question 4

Can I use this on a Coach white leather handbag?  Thanks!

Accepted Answer

This product is an oil moisturizer which softens the leather and gives the leather a mild to deep shine depending on the # of applications. To restore color you may want to look at Leather Refinish Color Restorer which comes in numerous colors.
