    Waterproofing Canvas Shoes and Boots

    I researched this method to waterproof shoes and boots, but I see no reason this couldn't work on any fabric/canvas gear. I think this makes things more water resistant than proof, but whatever works is what I say. In this example, let's use shoes. Get yourself some beeswax. You can find it...

    keep yer feet warm this winter. boot mod.

    if your boots dont keep your feet warm enough this idea seems like it would work. the idea is to take one of those windshield sun shades and cut some pieces out the same size as your boot insoles. put them in the bottom of your shoes and youre done.

    Shining up boots?

    So I've got a nice pair of timberlands, red leather. I want to polish them up, not so much for the shine but to protect the leather and keep them waterproof. What's the best option?

    I've been searching for a good pair of leather boots my whole life now, especially after I hit the road. And as a girl, the search is almost futile.
