Important Matters of Waterproof Rainboots Are Introduced

  • This can affect the overall color of the Waterproof rainboots so either spot test first, or go into this knowing and being ok with it potentially darkening the leather. These boots were never waterproofed and they were a rough texture, not smooth, so I assume that also played a factor into the darkening of the leather.

    Smooth leather boots are easier and work better with this process. But it will work for rough leather boots too. Just be prepared for the leather to potentially darken.

    This will take a little time.

    You will need to be careful to get your entire boot! No one wants a missed not-waterproofed spot.

    There are many options out there, from store-bought creams, waxed and even sprays. This DIY method is inexpensive and worked SUPER well, but is potentially a little more work than buying a store-bought cream. However, the waterproofing is holding up really well, so I think we will continue to use this method in the future.

    Be prepared to use items you don't mind throwing away unless you like cleaning wax out of things.

    Do this in a place safe to work with heat and wax and protect any surfaces you are using and close to from both heat and wax.
