Perfect as a sealing & finishing coat for veg tanned leather projects
Do you have a dirty, dry, old saddle, some curled up tack, or a neglected pair of boots that you’re trying to bring back to life? Perhaps you want to restore an antique piece of furniture with an inlaid leather top? Maybe you bought a set of dusty, dried up motorcycle saddlebags at a garage sale. Whatever your restoration project, if it involves leather or wood, Skidmore’s can help.
Beeswax is our magic ingredient…it does wonderful things!
Beeswax, along with other natural oils and ingredients means our products are easy, safe and pleasant to use and give your leather and wood a natural glowing finish that’s easy to maintain.
Skidmore's is a small, family business that has operated out of Laramie, Wyoming since 1987. Our products are handmade in small batches in our “batch plant” adjacent to our home.
We hand label, package, and ship daily to customers all over the world. Our business philosophy is simple; make good products that work and are safe and pleasant to use, and take care of our customers.
Guarantee
Skidmore's products are made using the finest ingredients nature can provide, derived from trees, plants, and insects. Our main ingredient is pure beeswax, a rather magical substance, we feel! We formulate these ingredients in traditional ways, carefully overseeing every step of the process. We are proud of the way the resulting products perform and hold-up, and of the flexibility in application that they offer. We treat our employees and our customers the way we like to be treated – with honesty, fairness and appreciation. We’ve worked hard to make sure that when you buy Skidmore’s, you’re purchasing the very best wood and leather products in the marketplace. We hope you will be more than satisfied, but if you are not, just let us know. We welcome your satisfied comments, and will be happy to hear any suggestions for improvement.
I am happy to undertake repairs and restoration to just about anything from rocking horses to Rolls Royces just send me an email and I'll do my best to help. If you would like something special made for somebody important then give me a call. Bespoke work is always a pleasure.
Please note: Barefoot Leather is literally a one man and a dog business.
All the Barefoot leatherwork is made by artisan leatherworker, Ray Hatley, ably assisted by Border terrier 'Mrs Brown'. The only thing Mrs Brown doesn't do is answer the phone, so emails whenever possible please to: ray@barefootleather.co.uk
Please feel free to send feedback about your purchases.
It is always nice to know when I have got it right and very important to know if I need to improve something!
