Traditional protection your boots will thank you for

Grafters Dubbin Grease is a classic leather care product that does exactly what generations of boot owners have relied on: waterproofs, softens and preserves. If you spend your days on wet ground, muddy sites or airsoft fields, it is the simplest way to make your footwear last.

One tin for every pair

The neutral formula suits all colour leathers, so there is no fussing over shade matching. Rub it into work boots, walking boots, tactical boots or leather gear and it gets to work nourishing the material and sealing out moisture.

Revives as it protects

Dubbin does more than waterproof. Its blend of waxes and oils nourishes dry, tired leather, keeping it soft and supple and bringing worn footwear back to life. Applied sparingly every few months, it keeps your boots performing season after season.

Use it right

Always clean and dry your footwear first, then work in a thin, even coat. Remember that dubbin is for smooth leather only, never suede or nubuck. Browse our full clothing and footwear range for more field-ready gear.

Frequently asked questions

What colour leather can I use this on?

This dubbin is neutral, so it is suitable for all colour leathers. There is no need to match the shade of your boots.

Can I use dubbin on suede or nubuck?

No. Like all dubbin, it should not be used on suede or nubuck, as the oils and wax will damage the delicate nap. Use it only on smooth leather.

How do I apply it?

Clean and dry your footwear first, then rub a small amount evenly into the leather with a cloth. Warming the leather slightly helps the wax soak in. Less is more.

How often should I re-apply?

As a general guide, apply a thin layer every three to six months, or more often if your boots see heavy wet and muddy use.

Will it waterproof my boots?

Yes. Dubbin forms a protective, slightly greasy film that seals out water and helps keep your feet dry, while also conditioning the leather.
