Keep your favourites.

For the boots you reach for. The leather that goes everywhere with you.

Leather bends on its oils.

Wet days can wash some out. Natural oils and waxes help keep it supple and resist everyday moisture.

Test a hidden spot first.

Oils and waxes can deepen colour. Work in a thin layer, then buff off the rest.

CAFFREY Arctic Dubbin questions

Does Arctic Dubbin darken leather?

It can. Like other oil-and-wax conditioners, CAFFREY Arctic Dubbin can deepen leather colour, and the darker shade may stay. Test a hidden spot first and judge the colour once it has fully absorbed.

Is Arctic Dubbin waterproof?

No. CAFFREY Arctic Dubbin is a leather conditioner, not a waterproofing treatment. Its natural oils and waxes help leather resist everyday moisture.

Which leather is Arctic Dubbin for?

Smooth leather boots, shoes and belts. It isn't for suede, nubuck, patent or synthetic finishes: for suede and nubuck, choose CAFFREY Suede Cleaner & Conditioner; for smooth leather bags, CAFFREY Revive Lotion.

What is dubbin?

Dubbin is a balm of oils and waxes for leather boots and shoes, also called dubbing in the US. CAFFREY Arctic Dubbin is a 100 ml natural leather conditioner for boots, shoes and belts.

Is dubbin the same as mink oil?

No. Both condition smooth leather: CAFFREY Minklux is a mink oil balm; CAFFREY Arctic Dubbin is made with natural oils and waxes and helps leather resist everyday moisture.

How do I use Arctic Dubbin?

Test a hidden spot, then work a little into clean, dry leather with a soft cloth. Let it absorb, then buff off the excess.

How often should I use Arctic Dubbin?

When the leather looks dry or feels stiff, not on a fixed date. A thin layer is enough; too much can leave leather sticky.

What is Arctic Dubbin made of?

CAFFREY Arctic Dubbin is made with natural oils and waxes, in a 100 ml resealable metal tin.
