Olvist Water Repellent Treatment for Textiles and Leather
Breaking the Cycle: How I Extended the Life of My Winter Boots
summarizeEditor's Summary
I used to toss my winter boots after just a few weeks, but a simple waterproofing trick has completely turned things around. I applied a waterproofing product to my leather boots, and it's been a total lifesaver. The formula works wonders on a wide range of materials, including leather, suede, and fabric. It's a great value for money, considering how well it works. The smell can be overpowering, but it's worth it for the extra protection.
