New Water-Based Footwear Care From Grangers

By Jon

Grangers has just released a new range of water-based footwear care products that are approved for use on Gore-Tex.

The range follows on from their top-selling aerosol versions and comprises a footwear Cleaner, Proofer and Conditioner. The Conditioner can now be applied to nubuck and suede as well as smooth leather and all three come with an integral sponge fitting for easy application.

I wonder if the comments various dudes have made on this forum about disliking the Grangers' solvent-y smelling aerosol products have sparked this off? I know that they read it as they have butted in to defend their products at times.
