Boot shopping is a necessity in the fall, particularly if you live in the north. In Southwestern Ontario we need winter boots that can deal with snow, slush and ice. We also need boots that will keep our feet warm and dry, and that isn’t always just about the boot. How you care for your boots plays a huge role in their effectiveness through a Canadian winter. Tana has a full line of products to keep your boots looking and smelling great, as well as ensuring they are keeping your feet dry.

I took my daughter shopping at a local Stance store for a pair of winter boots. After trying on a few different styles, she settled on a pair of Sorel boots. Being a Sorel fan myself, I knew that these boots would keep her feet warm, but I looked to the store representative to help us keep them waterproof.

Sarah recommended the Tana Universal All Protector to keep the boots protected from the elements. She said they could be cleaned just with soap and water. I asked her about the insoles that were on the Tana display, and she told me that they are great for Toms shoes or other shoes that people typically wear with bare feet. They keep the shoes from smelling and also add a little comfort when walking.

We left the store with the Sorel boots, the Universal protector spray and some Me to We bracelets that we couldn’t resist. We also left with the knowledge to keep those boots looking great for as long as she wears them. Here are the instructions for using the Tana Universal All Protector spray:
