At R.M.Williams we select only the best leathers for our boots. If the quality required is not available, we will not make the boots until it is. Our commitment to sourcing the finest leather from around the world and placing it in the hands of the country’s finest craftspeople ensures a product that will go the distance.
Whether you’re searching for the right leather to invest in for your next pair of boots, or wanting to understand your favourite pair a little better, our Leather Guide will outline the key qualities of each type.
Burnishing is an intricate, artisanal process in which coloured dye is applied to crust leather by hand. The result is a natural patina that develops over time, with each boot having a unique colouring.
Care: clean lightly with a damp cloth. Polish and protect with R.M.Williams Natural Stockman Polish. Do not use any cleaner or conditioner.

Kangaroo leather is the strongest for its weight in the world and polishes up well for a stylish boot. This, combined with its unique markings, makes it a favourite for fine craftwork.
*At R.M.Williams, providing you with high quality leather products is a top priority and so is minimising our impact on the environment. By accepting kangaroo leather that has minor imperfections caused by scratches or abrasions that occur in the animal’s natural habitat, we’re using significantly fewer skins and markedly reducing the amount of wastage incurred during processing.
Care: wipe over with a damp cloth or clean with leather cleaner. Apply leather conditioner and R.M.Williams Stockman Polish.
Note: tanbark kangaroo leather is an aniline finish so do not apply leather conditioner to this colour. See below for more details.
Kangaroo tanbark leather is a little more prone to water marks and stains than other kangaroo leather colours.
Care: clean with damp cloth. Apply R.M.Williams Natural Stockman’s Polish for natural shine and protection. Do not use any cleaner or conditioner as it will alter the appearance of the leather.
