gareth_oau 2 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Nikwax Gloveproof - wipe straight onto your gloves ($16) NikWax TX.Direct - wash jackets/pants in it, like detergent ($27) Toko Textile Wash - wash softshells in it ($10) You can buy them from Mountain Designs in Hay St City Link to post Share on other sites

hipsterandjane 0 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Grangers also makes some awesome products for (re) waterproofing. The best thing that you can do for waterproof breathable clothing is make sure that you maintain the original waterproofing. The key to this is making sure that you wash them in a "non detergent soap" - woolite is a commonly available one, even better are technical washes from nikwax or Grangers.
