Thread: What’s the best waterproof product for lowa boots

Ok. So I’m sick of the lowa spray then the leather cream, so expensive if you do this after every outing in the wet.


Keen to know what’s a better product to use if there is one? Cheers

The sun

Sorry @dale couldn't help myself. But I'm sure someone will come along. I wonder about good old fashioned dubin?

Salomon boots,great product.no oil or cream needed and dry super quick,also light even when wet.

I use Hanwags (spelling) it's what was recommended to me by another person who has Lowa boots I personally don't have Lowas and assume the boots are no longer covered by warranty if your happy to use any product in them.

I've jsust finished my Lowa cream and have started using Hubberds product. I'll use my boots this weekend so will have an idea after that.

+1 for Huberts on all my boots.

Get it from Footwear and Apparel in Upper Hutt, Whakitiki St

Keen to here how you get on

Yip me too on the Huberds shoe grease, wear my boots daily in the job, scrub barring, wind throw runs and general track work. my boots have yet to crack or anything, and they spend plenty of time walking in the wet and i am yet to get wet feet apart from river crossings....dry feet happy worker.
All my boots are suede type leather(Meindl air stream, Andrews chainsaw) so they suck up the oil well not sure how this stuff would go with the shinier leather type of boots.
Good luck.

Huberds grease mate.Been using it on lowas for few years,brilliant.

Another for Heberds shoe grease.

I will try and find out about a product used extensively in Europe winters called "Snow Seal"
I imagine it be good as a water repellent too

I run a basic bees wax on mine and find it works mint

@Sarvo snow seal has been sold in NZ for over 20years. Used it for quite a while. Pretty good, but that was before Goretex lined boots were common.
I used a product called Effax Balsam on my Meindls, but I reckon it reduced the breathability of the boots.

I have got onto this stuff from the local farmstore, I reckon it's a bit of alright

Skellerup Earthtec Boot Wax
