Our Leather Balm conditions, restores, polishes and helps waterproof leather. It can help restore the original softness and extend the life of your leather goods.

Our formula is a traditional recipe which has been used for decades.

The ingredients are simple and natural, including:

  • Beeswax
  • Sweet Almond Oil
  • Shea Butter
  • Cacao butter

You'll be pleasantly surprised that our leather balm isn't smelly like most conventional leather balms and conditioners! In fact, it's non-smelly, non-sticky, non-greasy and non-slippery. The Leather Balm is absorbed into the leather and won't transfer off onto your clothes. It's also completely safe to humans and animals.

Our leather balm can be used on all genuine leather types including vegetable tanned and oil tanned leathers.

Application Instructions:

  1. Ensure that leather goods are clean and dry.
  2. Test a small amount on a hidden patch of leather to preview results.
  3. Start with a small amount.
  4. Best applied by hand and massaged into leather, but a cotton fabric or rag works also.
  5. Leather will absorb the balm immediately. Some leathers may darken slightly but return to their natural shade within 24 hours.
  6. Repeat as necessary to protect, restore, and extend life of leather goods.

Notes:

  • When you condition leather by hand, it is important to start with a small amount of balm. This will allow you to monitor how the leather is responding to your treatment. You can always add more, bit by bit :)
  • Prior to conditioning, make sure the leather is clean by carefully running a soft, slightly damp cloth over the leather. This will keep you from trapping dirt into the leather's pores. This is especially important for heavily used or older leather goods!
  • During the application, be sure not to apply external sources of heat other than your hands (no ovens or hair dryers). Heat is not required to "open the pores" and treat high quality leather. It will only result in an over-absorption of oils. This will *significantly* darken your leather and cause the excess oil that was absorbed to seep out.

What is leather balm used for?

Leather balm is primarily used to condition and protect leather goods by restoring softness and preventing cracks. It adds a layer of waterproofing and can help maintain the natural sheen of leather without leaving a greasy residue. To use, apply a small amount by hand or cloth, allowing the leather to absorb the balm. 

Best non darkening leather conditioner

Our Leather Balm is ideal for this. It conditions, restores, and waterproofs using natural ingredients like beeswax, almond oil, and shea butter. While some leathers may darken slightly during application, they typically return to their original shade within 24 hours. For best results, apply the balm in small amounts by hand and avoid external heat to prevent over-absorption, which can cause excess darkening.

good

It's my first time ordering from Gallenleder, and it's also my first time using leather balm. It's so soft that it makes the leather goods in the house shine. I want to order it again when I'm done using it^^

It was one of my second orders. I now have three leather products from Galen Leather, so I have a separate leather care cream, but I ordered it from Galen Leather. I haven't used it yet, but I hope the leather will lengthen and shine beautifully. However, it is very unfortunate that unlike the first order, this second order does not come with a service gift. The product like the picture arrived

Like butter for leather

I used the Galen leather balm on my new undyed tote, my new undyed Medic bag and my undyed A5 slim book cover. It went on like butter - smooth and non sticky. I wanted both the natural look and protection. It did darken a little bit. Now I feel I can take these babies out into the world. It’s the only balm I would trust.

Excellent product

Very pleased with this balm protector. I used it first on my A5 zipped folio, crazy horse brown, and was very impressed by how beautiful and smooth looking the leather looked after treatment.

It is also very easy to apply on the leather surface. A must have to keep your leather looking great.

Good product

Works as advertised. I used to treat my brown crazy horse case. It helps maintain the leather soft and with a vibrant color. At first it will darken the color of the leather but after a da y it will go back to the original color with a soft touch. The smell for me was pleasant but it doesn’t stay after application. Shipping was fast too.

Easy to apply and doesn't smell

It feels really natural and not overly waxy. It applies really well and is easy to do (I apply by hand).

The leather does darken on application but returns to the original shade after a day or two.
