Danner Waterproofing Spray

Danner Waterproofing Spray for nubuck and suede

Keep your boots ready for changing weather with Danner Waterproofing Spray. This treatment is made for nubuck, suede and rough-out leather, materials that need a different care routine from smooth full-grain leather. It helps water bead off the outside while allowing the material to breathe. Danner says the spray does not darken the colour, making it a practical choice when you want to maintain the look of lighter or textured leather.

Where to use it

Use the spray on compatible nubuck, suede or rough-out leather footwear. It is also safe for textile sections made from nylon or Cordura, so a boot with mixed leather and fabric panels can be treated with the same product. For waterproof-lined boots, keeping the exterior from becoming saturated helps preserve comfort and breathability even when the lining itself remains waterproof.

Care routine

Brush away loose dirt before treatment and check the label and care instructions for your particular boots. Test on a discreet area first, then apply evenly following the directions on the bottle. Allow the footwear to dry fully before heading outdoors. Repeat as needed when water stops beading on the upper. This spray is intended for the outer material; it cannot repair a damaged waterproof membrane or replace cleaning. For smooth full-grain leather, choose a care product specifically suited to that leather instead.

• Best for: nubuck, suede and rough-out leather.
• Also suitable for: nylon and Cordura fabric panels.
• Finish: breathable water repellency without darkening the material, according to Danner.
