Question about boot care. - Snowboarding Forum

Nito · 02-18-2008, 11:40 PM

Hi All,

I just got a new (leftover) pair of black Burton Sabbath with the alligator skin print. This is the first pair of showy boots I've ever owned and want to know what is the best way to keep them looking good. BTW, I've got the following product for maintaining my hiking boots: 1)bees wax for water proofing and 2)saddle soap with conditioner for cleaning.

Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated - Nito

I guess their is no problem with using wax to water proof the boot.

Thanks again - Nito

If you've had all day sessions, pull out the liner to let it dry. Otherwise, just toss a couple silica gel packs into your boots, lace them up to help them keep their shape, and you should be fine.
