Title: Waterproof Trainers
Post by: jay moley on March 05, 2025, 07:28:11 pm

Now the weather has turned I need some waterproof trainers instead of welly type boots.

Looking online there are plenty of gore tex trainers but reviews are mixed on whether they are actually waterproof.

Any recommendations?

Cheers

Gore tex Merrells are pretty good waterproof wise.

Spray any trainers with Fablon waterproofing spray, used on tents for waterproofing.

Scotchgard works but needs reapplying often.

Bought Grangers Repel Plus on Amazon and sprayed it on my plastic toe cap trainers to see how good it is.
