honestly once it comes off i have not found that there is anything to really fix it, but you can buy silicone sprays like for camping gear but you have to re-spray every time you wash your gear. the best is to wash your items least amount as you can ya i know that's hard. i use the spray on my pants and jacket...boots i don't know that it would absorb it depends on what they are made of.

I have used a product called Revivex with success. It is what Klim recommends to use.

Just never you mind!

revivex works. just make sure your gear is clean and dry before you spray it...

Holy crap. My buddies and I say that all the time!

Where do you pick up this substance? I'd rather give it a whirl than spend a grand on a new outfit dealio. That's damn near two trips worth!

Klim gear is guaranteed to keep you dry! If it leaks, they'll replace it....period!

any Klim dealer can get Revivex....just saying

Not using Klim gear if that was the implication. Running HMK and this is my first and last time buying their junk. Their boots are garbage too. Went to Motorfist for this season and a world of difference.

For goretex stuff I have used revivex cleaner and wash in stuff. I've never used the spray though. Seemed to work for a while.

Recreationsupply.ca is where I got the reviveX

A can of scotch guard will get you to your next set, depending on how often you use your gear
