Recommended for Gore-TexA(R) and eVentA(R), Sympatex A(R) and all other waterproof Nubuck and Suede footwear Why breathability depends upon water repellency... Breathable waterproof footwear is most likely to get sweaty and wet inside when used in damp or wet conditions. If the outer nubuck or suede absorbs water, the breathability of the footwear will be reduced. Therefore, the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) of your footwear must be maintained to ensure comfort. It will eventually wear off and need to be renewed with Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof(TM). Waterproof footwear needs to be breathablea | When you&&';;re active and wearing footwear, your socks draw moisture away from your feet, keeping them dry. However, if your footwear absorbs water and 'wets out&&';; its breathability will be reduced. Moisture vapor will not be able to escape through the material, so your feet will feel clammy and wet. Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof(TM) adds Durable Water Repellency (DWR), which prevents water absorption, while maintaining breathability, keeping your feet dry and comfortable. Use Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof(TM) when your footwear soaks up water... Your footwear could be soaking up water just because it is dirty. First, try cleaning it with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel(TM), and if it is fairly new, or recently re-waterproofed, the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) will be revitalized just from cleaning. But, once the footwear has been thoroughly worn you will need to add DWR, using Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof(TM), after cleaning first with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel(TM). Cleaning properly can be as important as waterproofinga | Using the right cleaning product is as important as using the right waterproofing product. Conventional detergents leave behind a thin water-absorbent film on materials, which masks their Durable Water Repellency (DWR). Therefore, always clean your waterproof footwear with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel(TM). Remember that dirt itself works against DWR, so regular cleaning will enhance performance.
