Testimonials

Great on my horse harnesses and we all love URAD at the fire station for our boots. Urad is the best leather treatment ever. Thanks

This last week my wife and I attended the Omaha Home Show. We had walked around for almost three hours when we happened upon the Urad display. I had on my comfortable Rockport walking shoes that were looking a bit run down. After no more than 3 minutes, the Urad representative had my old Rockports looking great. He then turned to my wife's shoes and she was as impressed as I was. Needless to say we made a purchase. Once we got home we tried it out on our navy blue leather recliner that is almost 20 years old. It covered many of the scratches and wear marks in no time at all. I am a firm believer. I can't wait to send some to my son at the United States Naval Academy. I know it will help out his boots and shoes. Thanks for a wonderful product. I will purchase again! Best regards, John S.

I purchased Urad with the intention to use it on my horse equipment because I was so impressed by the way it made my boots look. I didn't get a chance to because my husband was so surprised by how great it worked he used it on his motorcycle seat and bags, our dress shoes, his work boots, belts, and anything else that he could find that was made of leather. We are sold!!!

You may be interested to know that Urad is very much favoured by the side-saddle fraternity in Great Britain. Our saddles are, in the main, very old and as you can imagine it is very difficult to keep the leather supple and in good condition. I have restored 4 very sorry looking saddles to near show condition using Urad Shoe and Leather Cleaner. For regular maintenance it is so much easier and less messy than leather oil. Incidentally, my side-saddles date one from the 1890s, two from the 1920s and one was made in 1909!

I bought the 7oz URAD cream from you at a horse show last year. Sure enough it seems to work perfectly on all types of leather. Frankly I don't understand how it seems to match all colors and hold up well on my boots. Anyway I need more...!

A few years ago I went to the Home & Flower show here in Cleveland, Ohio. I was continually getting frustrated at getting the salt stains from winter off my shoes. I tried soaking them with warm wet rags and then polishing them but the stains kept reappearing. The leather sprays from the shoe store seemed useless. The pair I was wearing were stained at the time, I was thinking about getting a new pair because I could not get the salt stains to stop coming back. The man at the URAD booth looked at me as I was walking by and asked if he could shine my shoes. I said ok because my shoes looked like crap anyway. I was blown away at how they instantly looked like brand new shoes. I bought a jar on the spot. I have been using this same jar ever since and have not had one problem with salt stains since that day. I will not wear a new pair of shoes out the door before applying URAD. This stuff is awesome!!! By the way, I still wear those same boots from that day at the Home & Flower show, they still look like new!

I bought a jar of Urad cream at the National Finals Rodeo after the gentalman used it on my boots. My husband refurbishes old saddles & ran off with the can as soon as we got home from Las Vegas. Those old, abused saddles come out so beautiful that even our saddlemaker friend was impressed! I've just reordered an extra jar for him & am trying the Aquila as my new saddle has a suede seat & fenders!

I have never had a product clean my saddle like Aquila!! The silver laced rawhide trim is white again. They now look next to new. I wouldn't have bought a jar of URAD thinking it was way too expensive and wouldn't go far enough but it only takes a tiny bit and is well worth every penny. I have been telling all of my barrel racing friends.

I feel obligated to tell you how pleased with URAD. It certainly is a pleasure to buy a product that exceeds expectations.

Dear URAD: A year ago I bought your leather conditioner after seeing it demonstrated at a Home and Garden Show in Denver. Since we have moved 10 times in 15 years movers have tried to protect our furniture, and it has not always been sucessful. Adding to that we formerely had 3 young cats, who we discovered were running over our leather couches when we were at work. Your products restored to almost new the scratches. Now I use them twice a year to keep the leather supple in a very dry climate. Thank you for delivering on your advertising claims at a time when many products simply do not.

I purchased URAD leather creme at a Toronto Boatshow two years ago, I'm still using the same container of creme and it is working wonderfully. I just brought it into work with and did several pairs of shoes for other employees, they can't believe how it brings their old scuffed up shoes back to life! I recommend it to anyone. Darrin Thorne

I have enjoyed your product so much I would like to sell it!

Leather Mate by Urad is a product I simply will not ever be without. Last weekend we cleaned our saddles, bridles and riding boots with it. I used an old toothbrush in the cracks and crevices on the saddle. They looked so great on the horses. Amazing product! And it was so fast and easy. (Webmaster Note : Leather Mate is another "brand" name for URAD leather cream.)

I love your product!!! My saddles and other tack never looked better since the day they were new. I have gotten many of my riding friends to use your product too- They love it! My mom loves the product for her shoes and purses. I got fabulous results and knew I was doing something wonderful for my large tufted leather ottoman in the den and a leather covered dresser in the bedroom. These are two fine pieces of furniture and I trusted their care to your product without question.

I found out about this product throught the chromeheads web site.It was the discovery of the year.I placed my order and received a phone call from the owner (Dominique)He advised me on a different product that would be more suited to my needs.I wanted to try the product so I accepted his recomendation. I own a 1998 R1200 C Ivory with blue trim(leather)seat and hard bags(BMW stox)the seat was so bad,the only options was replace or re-upholster.So far I've use the Aquila cleaner/shampoo once along with a thine coat of URAD cream polish and "voila"its almost like new.The same proceedure was used on the bags and the same results appeared.Thanks Dominique for your help and suggestion it realy worked.I recomend this product to anyone who is concidering replacing or reupholstering ,Try it you'll like it Thanks ROLAND

I am an charge of locker room services at a large private golf and country club in the Greenville SC. area. We recently hosted a buy.com Pro /Am. Golf tournament and I was incharge of locker room services and shoe care. I had two helpers. There is no way that we could have kept up with the volume of shoe shines we had if it had not been for URAD products.They are simple and fast to apply. Not only were we able to keep up with the volume, about 100 pair a day/ we also got many compliments from the Pro Golfers like " Great Job","Best shoe shines on our tour" "These really look great" and" Most places we go they really pack on the polish and they look really bad but these look like they are new shoes again" Needless to say we ended up the week with some really nice tips because we used URAD products.

I think I've found the best: URAD. I have used Lexol for years. For the first year I also used lexol on my Cruiser's leather. However, now I use URAD. I'm even using URAD on my riding boots and BMW Cruiser leather jacket and pants. The stuff is awesome. Applied as directed it cleans, moisturizes, and imparts a shine that is better than new. It has even restored the areas of the seat that were starting to look worn. I'd put my seat and saddle bags, with 18,000 miles of wear, up against any new seat and bags on a showroom floor.
Yep, I'm sold! URAD is not cheap, but I believe it is the best stuff out there. Posted on BMW R1200 family of motorcycles product review forum at: http://www.chromeheads.org/discus/messages/9/948.html?1018928257

I recently restored an older and much loved Dooney & Bourke purse; it looks new! I also used URAD on a black Coach purse that had a few scuff marks on it. Just like the Dooney, it looks brand new. I couldn't be happier with the product. I love your product! I'm telling all my friends how wonderful it is.

URAD, Sensational! I honestly couldn't believe it. My shoes were brand new in about 3 minutes. I want to start selling the product its that amazing.

We love URAD. We had a saddle that was 45 years old and looked like hell and within a half hour it looked almost new. My husband has been one of your best testamonial person, he tell everyone about his boots and how nice they shine. Thank you!

For my birthday three years ago I requested a Coach purse in dark brown. I loved it so much I asked for a black one this Christmas. The brown one started to look worn even though I used the Coach leather cleaner on it. Next to the new purse it looked old and I so wanted it to look new again. I went to my shoe repair in town and he sold me your Urad Creme. I used it immediatley and could not believe my eyes. The old worn purse absolutely looks brand new. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to restore their leather purses, shoes, etc. It is truly an outstanding product. Dawn

For any of you baseball players out there, URAD is the absolute best treatment for your baseball glove. Whether your glove is new or old, URAD will keep it soft and looking like new. I use it on all my gloves and have loaned my URAD to other players on the team. One 7oz jar lasts for an entire season. The players all love it, because it's easy to use and carry in an equipment bag. No serious player should be without it.

This product is truly amazing. I cant beleve it is not more well known. It can make an old saddle look brand new.

(Taken from Minot Daily News) Exerts of Interview:...In addition to the custom boots, Service Shoe Shop also does shoe shines and repairs, refinishing leather jackets, luggage... The shop even happended upon a unique leather care product to help protect that custom design. The revitalizing product is called URAD. I haven't seen a product like this in my 49 years in business, and I've shined a lot of shoes in those years. The product is good for reviving old leather and all colors. In addition to shoes and boots, URAD is used on saddles, sports equipment, car interiors, luggage, and unvarnished wood. URAD is an all nutural product made with carnauba tree wax. No buffing is required and it is water repellent. (to contact Larry, go to dealers listing and search for Retailers in Minot,ND,USA)
