the reason why they suggest doing the water protection spray is because of the length of time it takes for the spray to dry. which is roughly 12-24 hours, also when the boot is wet the leather pores are opena dn better able to absorb the waterproofing spray. LOWA has a video on their website on boot care and maintenance. it's in german but if you throw on Closed Captions (there is a handy CC button near the settings option in the video) it explains it very well. I'll post the link to their video below ua-cam.com/video/pTWSQWQqlRI/v-deo.html

Hi. Should I use Nickwax fabric and leather or Nickwax nubuck and suede waterproof?
Thanks
One of the four that gave this a thumbs down must have been the girlfriend.
Would this process be the same for the LOWA Zephyr HI GTX TF boots?
Yes
No!!
Didn’t think that boot was all leather like the boots in this video
Why waterproof before the conditioner?
