Brush-on waterproofing for nubuck and suede.

Nubuck & Suede provides maximum waterproofing with minimal change to appearance of nubuck suede and split leathers. This brush-on treatment will significantly reduce water and salt stain damage to footwear and prevent dirt from adhering to leather surface. It contains tanning agents that extend the life of the leather and enhance its resistance to wet abrasion. May darken light colored leathers.

I searched high and low for a good waterproofer for my nubuck clogs--tried several kinds including Dansko's spray-on type. None did much good so I finally tried Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Waterproofing. It is excellent--not difficult to apply and water beads up and rolls off my shoes now. As were other reviewers I was concerned about dampening the nubuck before applying the Nikwax but I shouldn't have worried. The shoes look nice if a tiny bit darker--not noticable enough to dissuade me from using Nikwax in the future. This is a superior product and worth every penny.

This product works well and is easy to apply. Make sure you wet the boots first to aid absorption.

I always use it to maintain my waterproof boots especially in the wet winter. I believe they extend the life of my boots. Thanks to ALTREC. Their delivery is so efficient.

My boots are eight years old... got them when I first started boarding. I haven't washed them nearly as often as I would've liked to with the fear of drying the leather out but luckily they were built so well that they have held up to much abuse. Instead of buying a new pair I decided to try this product first since I liked my boots so much. This not only did it's job to waterproof (extremely well I might add) it restored the suppleness of the nubuck and made it look like new. I also used the Nikwax wash to clean out the GoreTex lining of the boot but that's a different review. As I use Nikwax products more and more I am starting to think that they are worth the price (they are a bit pricey... but they work the best for waterproof clothing.)

The product is easy to apply is not messy like vaseline-type waterproofers and works. It did not discolor or flatten the nubuck of my new Montrail Solitude boots. After letting it dry I poured water on the boots and it beaded up and rolled off. The container is easy to carry and appears to be leak-proof.
