    Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review

    This ^ Once you throw some boot oil and LP on them, that dark spot won't be noticeable. Especially after you've worn them for a couple of months... FYI: My boots also came with a blemish (I posted pics a while back) so I feel your pain. After treating/wearing them, I really have to look hard...

    The best way to protect your boots would be a heavy duty LP like Montana Pitch Blend, or Obenauf's. Montana Pitch Blend will darken your boots (so will Obenauf's). I've been using MPB on my boots for 2+ years with no issues.

    Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review

    I wouldn't apply any colored polish to that scuff. I did that to a scuff when I first got my boots. Even though I used a lighter colored polish, it made the scuff significantly darker. I'd just dab a little boot oil on the affected area. Personally, I'd just ignore it. When I first got a...

    If you're willing to spend that much cash for some hiking boots, give Limmer & Sons a look. Otherwise check out Danner's US made boots. I have a pair of Mountain Light II boots. Love them.

    I used Crane's method on the leather portions of the boot. I didn't do anything to the canvas. I may try Filson's wax, Otter Wax, or Fjallraven Greenland Wax sometime in the future...

    I bought a pair of Rowan's from STP last month for that price. Great boots! I also liked the fact that they weren't factory seconds.

    Per Dave Page (a cobbler in Seattle). Side note: If any of you need hiking boots resoled, Dave is your man. He does great work. Definitely worth shipping your boots to him. "You just can't work on the boots after it's on the leather," Page says of Sno-Seal. "Most hiking boots today are...

    Find a new cobbler where you're currently living (it should cost under $30), or put them on yourself. My half-soles have been on for two years without any issues.

    Did he say that Wolverines were superior? I didn't read that. He simply stated that he's been abusing his for years, and they haven't fallen apart. I've been wearing mine for 2+ years without any issues (I wear them around 5 days a week)...
