Preserving footware
I know footwear is important in survival and does not last long in a wet muddy environments. What would be the best way to preserve leather and stitching on footwear. Would candle wax, bees wax, petroleum jelly or a combination be a good solution?

Also if in a situation without the above products would animal fat do the job or would this cause the item to smell or rot?
