New Water-Based Footwear Care From Grangers

Gear news in association with
eVent Fabrics

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.

Oh, and as you might have guessed, they're totally compatible with Gore-Tex footwear and can be applied to wet or dry leather. In the shops now and you can tell the water-based stuff because it says 'water-based' on the smart, black bottle and isn't an aerosol...

More information on Grangers from their web site.

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.

Good on 'em I say...I may even try it out next time I run out of Nikwax. Though it's obvious that Nikwax have a very enthusiastic band of followers on here. The new Grangers' stuff can even be used on wet or dry booties as well, just like Nikwax.
