Why Caring for your Ski Boots Matters
Ski boots are specially engineered for performance, comfort, and durability. But the reality of winter sports means mixing sweat and snow, which is not ideal for materials or odor prevention. And honestly, winter boots can be quite an investment, so we'd better keep them in play for longer. Proper boot care extends their lifespan, maintains hygiene, preserves material integrity, and keeps them ready for the next challenge. Our DFNS Refresher spray is designed to:
- Target odor-causing molecules
- Refresh and revive boot materials without washing
- Prevent bacterial buildup from moisture
How to Refresh Your Ski Boots: Step-by-Step
1. CLEAN Undo the buckles and straps from your ski boots. Remove the liners and/or insoles and let them dry. Put them back inside once they're dry and keep the boot as open as possible for better access and deeper refreshing.
2. SPRAY Spray the inside for 3 seconds.
3. DRY Air-dry for 30 minutes out of direct sunlight. If you want it extra fresh, give it 24 hours.
4. GO Yes, it’s really that easy.
Pro Tips for Winter Boot Maintenance
Now you know how to keep your ski boots at their best. Here's when and where to focus your care routine for maximum results.
Signs Your Ski Boots Need Attention
Ideally, you should be refreshing your winter boots after each day on the slopes. But if you don't find that necessary, let your boots tell you when they need care. You might want to check for:
- Noticeable odors that linger after use and loss of that fresh smell you expect from clean gear
- Damp feel inside the liners and/or insoles from accumulated moisture.
Where to Store Your Ski Boots
Find somewhere dry and cool to keep your boots. The perfect storage spot has a stable temperature year-round and stays away from direct heat sources that can damage materials (like radiators). For the cherry on top, keep them inside a ski boot bag for added protection while they rest.
