History of Mink Oil
Mink oil, a natural byproduct of the fur industry, has its roots in the early 20th century. During this time, mink farmers stumbled upon a remarkable substance within mink fat that possessed distinctive qualities, perfectly suited for enhancing leather care products.
Mink oil boasts a significant concentration of oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid closely akin to the oils naturally present in human skin. This unique composition renders it an exceptional moisturizing and conditioning agent for leather. Its ability to penetrate deep into the fibers restores and safeguards the leather's innate oils.
Beyond its moisturizing prowess, mink oil also exhibits water-resistant properties, effectively shielding leather against moisture-related damage. Consequently, it has found particular favor in the realm of outdoor leather goods, such as boots, jackets, and bags.
