Heritage & History
The Leather Honey formula was invented in 1968 by a retired chemist who worked with businessman Daniel McGowen, whose family had been running a Philadelphia-based manufacturing company since the early 20th century. The conditioner was originally sold under the name Harness Honey, targeting the equestrian market where leather tack requires regular conditioning to remain supple and strong. The formula developed a cult following among leather experts, retailers, and high-end car and furniture makers.
In 2010, Jim McGowen and his son Shawn relaunched the same formula as Leather Honey Leather Conditioner, making it widely available to consumers. The family-owned business has built Leather Honey into the #1 best-selling leather conditioner on Amazon, maintaining the original formula while modernizing the packaging and marketing. Shawn McGowen serves as CEO, keeping the formula his grandfather helped develop alive in West Virginia.
