After years of using the tins of solid nikwax, and not finding any in the Covent Garden store, I thought I'd give this cream a go, on the advice of the assistant.
Works just as well as the wax ever has; kept the leather completely dry all through a soggy few days tramping about the Yorkshire dales.
I still prefer to rub in using my fingers rather than the sponge, just feels like you're working it into the leather that bit more.
Also, 50pence of the manufacturer's printed RRP isn't too shabby either!
The assistant in store was also able to give some useful advice on making some minor repairs to my boots, which was greatly appreciated.
