Waterproof Trainers
« 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.
Impossible done straight away, miracles can take a little longer.

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

Scotchgard works but needs reapplying often.

ECCO gortex black leather trainers for me....comfortable and good arch support and totally waterproof.
price higher/work harder!

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