Nikwax..,
I needed to waterproof the dark brown suede shoes that I just purchased. After searching online for just the right product, I purchased Nikwax Footwear Care Kit for Nubuck and Suede which contains:
~ Nubuck & Suede Proof – a water-based, sponge-on product that waterproofs, maintains support & breathability for suede & nubuck items and
~ Footwear Cleaning Gel – a sponge-on cleaner for all outdoor and sports footwear (smooth leather, suede, nubuck and fabric)
Waterproofing my new shoes was an easy process. I pressed the sponge applicator to my shoe to release the liquid and spread it around with the same applicator. After my shoes dried, I brushed them with an old hairbrush to lift the nap. My shoes are just as soft as they were when I bought them, this product did not stiffen them. If I was waterproofing dirty shoes, I’d clean them first with the Nikwax cleaning gel, then waterproof them.

|worked well… at first,
I normally am a big fan of nikwax products, and the cleaner certainly did a great job of removing the stubborn salt stains that had accumulated on my nubuck shoes, but the waterproofer was a disappointment. It worked great at first, with the shoes repelling snow and stains well for the first few days, but they soon became susceptible again. I reapplied, but I had already used over half the bottle for the first application.

|Super Clean!!,
The cleaning gel worked wonders on my shoes! I have a pair of soft suede Eccos that I love and I was VERY apprehensive about using a cleaner. I was afraid it might leave spots or make the fabric less soft. After looking at many products and reading many reviews, I decided to try Nikwax’s Footwear Cleaning Gel. I am so happy – it has made my shoes look nearly brand new again! I have taken these shoes hiking on mountains and sloshed with them through the rain (which you are not supposed to do with suede shoes), and now they look as if I bought them a week ago. I am very happy with this product.
I have posted before and after photos in the review I just posted on REI (the review should be up in a few days). [...]
I have not used the water-proofer yet, so I will update my review when I have tried it out.
