About This Product

Rain, salt air, red dust — the stuff you love about this country is the same stuff that destroys your gear. Your boots crack. Your jackets fade. Your canvas dries out and lets the weather in. Not anymore. Latitude 36 Beeswax Waterproofing Balm is handcrafted on Kangaroo Island using pure beeswax straight from our own hives. Rubbed into leather, canvas, or timber, it creates a natural water-resistant barrier that repels moisture while letting the material breathe. No silicone. No petroleum. No synthetic coatings that peel and flake after a few weeks. This is old-world protection for modern adventures. The same formula bushmen and sailors relied on for generations — before everything went plastic. Our balm penetrates deep into fibres and pores, conditioning as it protects. Leather stays supple. Canvas stays strong. Timber weathers with character instead of rot. Use it on work boots, oilskin jackets, canvas swags, leather belts, tool handles, wooden boat rails — anything that faces the Australian elements and needs to last. One tin goes a long way. The smell alone will remind you why natural is better. Farm-made, not factory-made. From our bees to your boots. Just honest beeswax doing what it's done for centuries — protecting the things that matter. Work a thin layer into clean, dry material with your hands or a cloth. The warmth of your fingers softens the balm and lets it soak deep into the grain. One application lasts for months, even in the harshest conditions. Reapply when water stops beading on the surface. Works on boots, jackets, bags, hats, belts, tool rolls, outdoor furniture — anything that cops a beating and deserves better than neglect. Latitude36 Beeswax Waterproofing Balm. Natural protection. Kangaroo Island made.
