Can this be used on the suede leather bottom of my Jansport Right Pack Backpack?

I wouldn't. I can't find it now but I think remember reading that this formula is intended for synthetics. I'd use waterproofing spray for suede/nubuck shoes on suede.

There is not a lining underside of leather " suede" against your hands. Hope this helps.

Yes, the waterproofing effect works as well on clean, smooth surface leather items. However, if the smoothness comes from a wax coating, the effect and its permanency is much diminished. As for "nu-buck" (sanded outside leather, suede-like in appearance), the stuff is also effective, but be aware of the significant darkening it produces, proportional to the density of application. Try it on a less visible portion of your material (perhaps the edge of the tongue) to gauge whether the color change is acceptable. Good luck.

Christine, I use it on suede as well. For example, I soaked a pair of suede shoes in the rain. Used Bicks 5 on them and brought them back to life [like new]. The shoes were darkened a bit at first, but later returned to their original color. I love this stuff. Threw my Lexol leather treatment away when I found this.

According to the label, it can be used on Suede and Nubuck, but NOT on smooth leather. So I would use it on your Minnetonka boots only if they are suede or nubuck leather.

It says on the can that it is okay for leather and swede but I used it on a fake suede and it worked beautifully. No change in color or texture.

In my experience, rubber cement works well on leather (over the years I have used it to make many lasting repairs). Coat both sides of the leather to be joined, let it dry, then carefully position and press the pieces together. Obviously this won't work in every situation, but it is worth a try. (FYI, when making laced leather products like wallets, the lacing is lengthened by cutting a 1/8" 45 degree slice off the top side of one piece and off the bottom side of the other (to keep the shiny top-side continuous) and then rubber-cementing them together in the manner described above.)

Yes but it may darken the leather on new boots. Try a spot on the tongue you can't see and let it dry. Can't use on suede or fur. Has to be smooth leather. Great product for leather.

I believe so. The bottle states that it can be used for exotic leathers and ostrich leather falls in that category. But, to be sure, test it on an indiscrete area first.

I would say yes if they are not suede, apparently suede and nubuck are very sensitive. I have used it on penny loafers and 3 other pairs of men's shoes without issue. I love the shine!

I would be hesitant to use it on leather. Since water can cause leather to shrink.

This product is more for getting stains out of "S" fabrics like suede and microfiber (dry-clean only stuff). I don't think it would do much good with rubber cement on a nylon or cloth backpack, but I don't know for sure.

Sorry, I have not used it on SW suede boots, but I have used it on a pair of suede ankle boots. Worked great to waterproof and didn't mess up the suede. Hope this is helpful.

I would NOT use this for leather apparel like jackets, bags, or shoes. Get Leather Honey (or Honey Leather) instead. This feels kinda slippery after application

I've used it on leather and even suede. It works very nicely. Sorry it took me forever to answer you.:)

I have only used this product for vinyl chairs/seats. I don't think that I, would use it for something as delicate as suede shoes though. It works great for vinyl upholstery like I said.

Yes. I buy it to use on all my suede boots. That's why I buy it. I have used it on many pairs. It might look a little wet, but will dry normal. Do not spay too close to the boots.
