treatment for your kicks

Has anyone tried to put any waterproof treatment spray on their wakeskating shoes. I bought some at the end of last season to spray my jetski cover and snowpants. I had a little left over and thought I would coat my shoes. My hope is that they would repel water and maybe not stay damp so long.

or... maybe it will trap moisture in them keeping them forever damp! Smash

i tried it. I don't think i had enough to do anything. It just made my feet feel really weird at first.

I've thought about that before but I don't think it helps things that are saturated for long periods of time. But, let a brother know how it turns out.

jordan good point. that would suck. I think I'm going to give it a shot though. Jesse I'll let you know if it works miracles.

I skated some dvs milans for the winter with a water resistant leather and they never ever dried.
