Leather Boots - Waterproofer.

[TKH]

I have HG boots with gortex liner. Trouble is when the outer gets wet the boots get VERY cold. Also, the reinforcement for gear lever is in the wrong place making for very sore tootsies on anything but a short ride. Also have cheapo Aldi boots. They're ok but leak badly on the zip. for some reason, although they are plastic not leather. 

For proofing leather I use loads of black polish (black boots) and melt it into the leather with a hairdryer. A good albeit temporary fix.
