A couple of years ago I cleaned out my shoe polish and boot stuff. I had a bunch of 1/4 to 1/2 full tins etc of boot dressing. I emptied them all out into a metal Folgers coffee can and heat the contents on a Coleman stove. There was some beeswax, Hubberds, Sno-Pruff, Mink Oil, and some Neats foot oil, maybe even some other stuff. Later on I used the mixture on an old pair of leather Red Wing Bird Hunters. I wasn't overly impressed with the results but repeated over time a couple more treatments. The treatments were followed by a session near the heating stove.
Voila! Worked great! I haven't had to repeat the process for at least 5 hunting seasons. I gueess even a blind pig can find an acorn occassionally.
