I'm a bit late to the party with this review, but better late than never.
I'm a total believer in using waterproofing sprays to keep my shoes in top condition, especially when it comes to suede and leather. Leather, in particular, needs some TLC. Over the years, I've tried my fair share of sprays, but most of them have been pretty underwhelming. They're usually super pungent, don't last long, and require constant reapplication to feel comfortable. The older the shoes, the more often you need to reapply the spray. That's why I was excited to stumble upon a game-changer at Sportmaster. Apparently, it's got rave reviews for being completely scent-free. I picked it up last autumn on a whim, and I'm so glad I did. It's honestly one of the most effective sprays I've ever used.

MAYBE I'M JUST LUCKY
I first tried Reloa Spray on Ozon. I was expecting magic, so I brought it home and immediately applied it to my winter boots.
I have Ecco boots made of suede. At the time, they were pretty worn out and looked quite dull - suede can be like that. I wiped them clean with a cloth, let them dry, and then sprayed them with the Reloa Spray. The spray comes out in little droplets and instantly makes the boots feel wet, but within a few minutes, they dry up. I was impressed with the effect - my boots looked shiny and new again, just like when I first bought them. I was hooked from the start. Next, I wanted to see how it would perform in the rain. I went for a walk in the downpour and was amazed to see how water just rolled right off the surface in tiny droplets, without soaking the suede. Then it snowed, and the droplets looked just like the ones from melted snow on my boots - not a single hint of waterlogging!
Reloa Spray for ShoesAnd the best part? Even the chemicals don't absorb into the surface, so you don't get those awful white stains. I was even more thrilled than before. What's more, the treatment lasts for almost a month, so you don't need to reapply it before every outing. Dirt doesn't stick around, and if it does, it's easy to brush off with a dry cloth - no need to wash them.
Reloa Spray for ShoesNaturally, if you do wash your shoes, you'll need to reapply the treatment. But that's a small price to pay! I'll show you how it looks in practice. These are my demis seasonal boots - they're old and tend to get pretty waterlogged, but with the Reloa Spray, they're a different story altogether.
Water-repellent treatment Reloa Spray for shoesThis isn't leather, it's nubuck, so it needs some TLC (and I still need to get some nubuck dye). I washed and dried them, and here's what the surface looks like. Water-repellent treatment Reloa Spray for shoesI sprayed it on, and you can see how it's soaking in – the treatment isn't just on the surface, it's penetrating deep.
Water-repellent treatment Reloa Spray for shoesAnd within a few minutes, it was all dry.
Water-repellent treatment Reloa Spray for shoes And yes, there's no lingering smell at all – I could easily apply it in a room without needing to ventilate the whole house.Of course, you shouldn't walk on puddles, and you won't turn your rubber boots into shoes, but you'll forget about soggy feet on rainy days. And if you apply the treatment to a nubuck that's been oiled, it'll become even shinier and more vibrant, but a regular nubuck will just look well-maintained)
Water-Repellent Spray for Shoes ReloaI've been using this spray for over six months now, and I couldn't be happier. Since you only need to apply it occasionally, the cost is relatively low. A huge plus is that it not only repels water but also dirt and chemicals. For me, living in the Volga region, this is a lifesaver because we get a lot of dirt and chemicals from November to April, which is basically half the year. So, without this spray, I'd be in trouble. And I can confidently say that this spray is one of the most effective ones I've tried.

I'm really impressed with this water-repellent spray, and I'll only be buying it from now on. It doesn't have any strong odor, lasts a long time, and really effectively repels water and dirt. My shoes look great and stay looking great. I also noticed that this manufacturer has a product for treating outerwear - it's to prevent water from seeping in, and I have a jacket that was treated with this spray, but it seems to have worn off over time, so I'm planning to buy the product and treat my jacket again. In short, I'm very satisfied with this manufacturer - it's been a game-changer for me this season.
I highly recommend it!
Thanks for your attention and happy shopping!
