"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I use Nubuck & Suede Proof on my approach shoes and hiking boots because it waterproofs without ruining the velvety texture. It brings back clean water beading, keeps the material breathable, and prevents that soggy, heavy feel suede gets after just a few wet miles. Super easy to apply and honestly a must-have if you use suede footwear outdoors.""We rely on Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof when our suede or nubuck footwear starts darkening with moisture instead of shedding it. These softer leathers offer incredible comfort and flexibility on the trail, but once they absorb water, breathability drops and the material gets heavy fast. Nubuck & Suede Proof restores durable water repellency without altering the unique texture that makes these boots and shoes so comfortable. This water-based treatment keeps fibers supple while allowing moisture vapor to escape, helping feet stay warmer, drier, and more comfortable on long days in wet or variable terrain."
