Protection Nano Water

Nano-coated upper material

Rieker Nano Water-Protect technology is a special coating of the upper material with fine nano particles that form a firm bond with the shoe upper. This function changes the surface structure and creates a water- and dirt-repellent layer.

Care instructions

The nano-coated upper material is generally robust and hard-wearing. With the right care, it can keep its water- and dirt-repellent properties for the life of the shoe. However, much will depend on age, use and care, and the material properties can wear out over time, which will impair the protective properties. 

We therefore recommend:
→ Dry shoes gently, do not place them near a heat source (e.g. heater, oven), as high temperature fluctuations can cause the material to become brittle.
→ Take breaks from wearing the shoes so that the material has enough time to dry again.
→ When impregnating with another product, make sure that the product is suitable for coating with nano particles.
