Impregnates, preserves breathability, support and structure of nubuck and suede footwear.
Why breathability depends on water-repellency...
Breathable waterproof footwear is most likely to perspire and become damp inside when used in wet or damp conditions. If the outer nubuck or suede absorbs water, the breathability of the footwear will be reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain the footwear's resistance to water (DWR) to ensure comfort. Over time it wears away and needs to be restored with Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™.
Waterproof footwear must be breathable...
When you are active and wearing footwear, socks wick moisture away from your feet and keep them dry. However, if your footwear absorbs water and becomes "soaked", its breathability will be reduced. Damp vapours will not be able to escape through the material, so your feet will feel sticky and damp. Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™ gives footwear durable water-repellency (DWR) that prevents water absorption whilst maintaining breathability, so your feet stay dry and comfortable.
Use Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™ when your footwear becomes soaked with water...
Your footwear may become soaked with water simply because it is dirty. First try to clean it with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel™, and if it is relatively new or recently re-impregnated, the durable water-repellent layer (DWR) will be revived simply by cleaning. But once footwear has been worn extensively, you will need to add DWR using Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™, and this should be done after first cleaning with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel™.
Proper cleaning can be just as important as impregnation...
Using the correct cleaning product is just as important as using the correct impregnation product. Common cleaning products leave a thin water-absorbing film on materials that masks their water-repellency (DWR). Therefore, always clean your waterproof footwear with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel™. Remember that dirt itself works against DWR, so regular cleaning will enhance performance.
How Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™ protects...
Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™ is easy and quick to apply; either spray it or apply with a sponge to wet footwear. Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™ provides highly durable water-repellency (DWR) that develops as it air dries. It leaves a flexible water-repellent finish on individual nubuck and suede fibres. This allows moisture vapours to pass through, preserving breathability and keeping feet dry. Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™ has been specially designed and optimised for combined nubuck and suede footwear and will preserve the structure of the materials.
How to use
Apply Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof™ by hand...
- Remove dirt with a damp cloth and clean using Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel™.
- Shake well before use. Protect your work surface.
- Apply generously to wet footwear; spray from 5 cm away or apply with a sponge.
- Carefully remove excess drops or runs and allow to air dry naturally.
Note: Light or coloured nubuck or suede may darken after treatment. Test first on a hidden area.
Always allow footwear to air dry naturally...
- Allow footwear to dry at room temperature.
- Paper can be inserted into the toes to absorb excess moisture, which should be replaced once damp.
- Keep footwear away from fire and radiators; drying too quickly can cause leather to crack and glued soles to separate.

Why breathability depends on water-repellency...
Breathable waterproof footwear is most likely to perspire and become damp inside when used in wet or damp conditions. If the outer fabric or leather absorbs water, the breathability of the footwear will be reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain durable water-repellency (DWR) of the footwear to ensure comfort. With use, dirt, such as mud, accumulates on the outer surface of the footwear, which attracts water, masking the effect of any DWR surface treatment. Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel will remove dirt and revive DWR.

When you are active and wearing footwear, socks wick moisture away from your feet and keep them dry. However, if your footwear absorbs water and becomes "soaked", its breathability will be reduced. Damp vapours will not be able to escape through the material, so your feet will feel sticky and damp.
Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel will revive durable water-repellency (DWR), preventing water absorption, maintaining breathability and keeping your feet dry and comfortable.
Breathable waterproof footwear is designed for active people who move around outdoors...
Anyone who is active outdoors in wet or damp conditions will benefit from breathable waterproof footwear. Whether you are a mountaineer or walk a dog, or work outdoors as a farmer or surveyor, you will need good footwear.
When your waterproof footwear becomes soaked with water, use Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel...
Your waterproof footwear may become soaked with water simply because it is dirty. With use, dirt, such as mud, accumulates on the outer surface of the footwear, which attracts water. This masks the effect of any durable water-repellent (DWR) layer, leading to the footwear becoming "soaked" in wet or damp conditions.
Cleaning waterproof footwear with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel not only removes dirt, such as mud, but also revives DWR, causing water to bead up on the outer surface again.
Make sure you clean with the right product...
Common footwear cleaning products leave water-attracting (hydrophilic) residues that mask durable water-repellency (DWR) and cause footwear materials to absorb water and become "soaked" in wet or damp conditions. Therefore, they should be avoided when cleaning waterproof footwear.
Use Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel to thoroughly and safely clean waterproof footwear, revive DWR and breathability.
You do not need to re-impregnate your footwear against water every time you clean it...
Regular cleaning will enhance the performance of your footwear by removing water-attracting (hydrophilic) dirt and other contaminants picked up during outdoor use. Cleaning with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel will revive the durable water-repellency (DWR) of your footwear and cause water to bead up on the outer surface. When Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel alone does not revive the DWR of your footwear, it is time to restore impregnation using an appropriate Nikwax footwear impregnation product.
How Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel maintains the breathability of your waterproof footwear...
Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel is a highly effective cleaning product that has been specially designed and optimised for breathable waterproof footwear.
Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel is a safe product to use on breathable waterproof footwear because it does not leave water-attracting (hydrophilic) residues that cause fabric and leather to absorb water and become "soaked". Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel removes water-absorbing dirt and stains picked up during use; revives durable water-repellency (DWR) and causes water to bead up on the outer surface.
Regular cleaning with Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel will revive existing DWR protection and restore the breathability of your footwear, keeping your feet dry and comfortable.
