I sprayed them with two coats of waterproofing spray (the type you buy in the shoe store). Will it be safe to wear them in the rain now or should I still try to avoid getting them wet?

Please help!? http://www.leatherboatshoes.com/waterproof-please-help.htm http://www.leatherboatshoes.com/waterproof-please-help.htm#comments Sun, 26 Dec 2010 07:45:21 +0000 admin http://leatherboatshoes.com/waterproof-please-help.htm Is faux leather waterproof? I want shoes to keep my feet dry on rainy days that I can wear any other day of the year… so I hope I can buy faux leather boots and wear them in the rain without them getting destroyed… is this possible? Or do I need to buy the waterproofing stuff?
      Thanks in advance :)

One example is: “Canvak, perfect for heavy duty cotton canvas. It is a petroleum based water repellency treatment”. On a molecular level explain why it is correct or incorrect to state that “Canvak repels water.”

I know shoe polish could shine it up, but I don’t know if that would be a good thing to put on a belt.

      Would it come off on my clothing?

      Would it be able to keep the leather dye from coming off onto my clothing?

      Should I just use a wax meant for waterproofing leather shoes?

I’m going to be walking around in the rain a lot, maybe through puddles. But I don’t want to ruin how they look either. They’re black leather.

      Also, I can’t wait for them to dry — I need to be able to wear them days in a row, even if it’s raining…

      Do you have experience waterproofing leather shoes? Please tell me all you can!!
      Especially important– I really to know how well waterproofing will actually work. My grandma said that when she used to try to waterproof them, they always ended up getting wet and you had to let them dry before you could wear them again… but that was back in the day, so maybe things have changed.

      what happens if they get wet? how do they get ruined? and will my feet be able to breathe if I apply the waterproofing spray?

      the bottle of the spray says it can be used on any type of shoes/ material in general as long as its not vinyl or patent leather.
      so is it ok to use this on uggs?? and the bottle doesnt say how often i should use it. it just says "reuse when protection wears off over time" and i dont know how long they mean. please help!
