I just picked up a "backup" set of golf shoes, Adidas Traxion 2, and unlike my other pair of adidas shoes these are waterproof. My question is is there anyway to help keep these waterproof such as a waterproof spray or cleaner that will help keep the life of the shoes. I have never had a pair of waterproof shoes so just looking for suggestions. Thanks

Depending upon the leather finish and the colour, something like Graingers G-Wax, NikWax or some other waterproofing agent can be used to good effect. Waterproof membranes aside, keeping waterproof leather properly proofed with a suitable wax will go a long way towards keeping the water out and the leather in the best condition for as long as possible.

A good quality boot or shoe dressing will also hugely extend the life of the leather without oversoftening it or affecting the finish.

Thanks for the reply I will take a look at those waxes. Has a two year warranty but hopefully they'll last alot longer.
