NikwaxNubuck & Suede Proof, 125ml, Spray-On Waterproofing Restores DWR Water Repellency in Textured Leather Footwear, Shoe & Boot Care and Rain Protection

I have a pair of Merrell hiking shoes that I've been using pretty hard for a few years. They're still going strong, but I noticed during a hike that my socks were getting wet in a light rain, so I figured it was time to deep clean and re-waterproof, so after a bit of research, I bought this.Following the directions the evening the package arrived, I removed the laces, pulled out the insoles, and cleaned everything thoroughly with just water. When the shoes were still damp, I took them outside and sprayed them liberally with this stuff.Normally I would have let them air dry at a normal room temp (maybe in the garage or something). But I was actually heading out for a camping trip the next morning, so a bit crunched for time. I put them on top of my air conditioner compressor in the back yard. It was a very hot day, so that thing was blowing air probably upwards of 100°F. The shoes were bone dry within a couple of hours.All the same, the waterproofing seems to have worked great. No issues after re-lacing, everything felt normal. Honestly the waterproof-ness didn't get put to the test until months later, when I accidentally got too adventurous when fishing at a lake, and stepped into a marshy bog. The shoe went totally underwater, not quite up to the top where water could have gotten down into it. Maybe just a few drops got in, and my sock was dry within 20 minutes.

works for Uggs

I did a little test on the heall and it seems to be working out pretty good. I first used a clean new brush and brushed the grain in One direction. sprayed it from about a foot away outside with heard spritzes so that it was even all the way around then I brushed the shoes the opposite direction Spritz them all with hard spritzes about a foot away evenly all the way around with fine mist and let them sit outside for about 30 minutes before I brought them in then I put them in my garage overnight. No spots, the trick is even pressure on the sprayer and not dribbling it so that some spots come out thicker than others the distance is to remain consistent. You can't expect products to do the work for you an aerosol would be easier, the chemical seems to be good enough.

Muy buen producto, no pasa el agua

This baby works like a charmmm ✨I followed the directions and wet my Ugg boots and then applied the spray. I was in a bunch of snow and went skiing and there was not any water stains on my uggs! The spray is very effective and easy to use. Great value for money & I only used around 3 pea sized amounts, so the bottle will last for a really long time.

Shake it well, spray it on clean nubuck or suede, rub it in and let it dry completely. It will protect you suede and nubuck from water damage.

I definitely notice the water lingering and at times. absorbing on my suede shoes as apposed to beading up and rolling off (what I expected from waterproof spray..). However, it is more effective than not using anything and I don’t notice any watermarks on my suede after the drops have dried. So, protection from very LIGHT water exposure.

I bought a pair of ugg shoe/boots hybrids for winter this year, I wanted to water proof them and also hopefully keep them from getting salt stained. This stuff worked great on the suede parts but not on the shoe material stuff across the toe and tongue. This is my fault, I didn't fully read the product description before buying and it clearly states its for suede only and there's a different product that works for both material types. So again great product, works on suede. Don't use for regular shoe material though lol
