by Dubarry / ADPR 20 Sep 2007 22:25 AEST

With Christmas on its way, there is no better way to treat your loved one this year than to give them a present from the Dubarry Marine Footwear range. This range offers plenty of present ideas from footwear cleaning products to the perfect pair of boots.

For those seeking extra warmth during the chilly winter months, the Ultima yachting boot is a must. The Ultima’s water resistant leather is specially treated to dry quickly, yet softly enabling the boot to maintain its shape at all times. It features a high tech GORE-TEX® lining to ensure that feet stay moisture free, dry and comfortable, even in extreme conditions. Available in brown leather, the Ultima comes in sizes 3-11, 12, 13 (European sizes 35-48), and costs £170.

The Shamrock boot is the original from Dubarry. It was the first ever yachting boot in the world to feature the highly breathable GORE-TEX® lining, and remains the flagship of the Dubarry Marine Collection. Its injection-moulded sole ensures a non-slip performance in all conditions and provides increased shock absorbency, durability and underfoot comfort. It is these features that make Shamrock the footwear of choice for many leading yachtsmen and crews. It is available in brown leather and navy cordura in sizes 3-11,12,13 (European sizes 35-48), and is priced at £160.

If you are fortunate enough to already own a pair of Dubarry performance boots or shoes, Dubarry’s Total Footwear Care cleaning products are ideal stocking fillers, designed to keep boots looking as good as new all year round. This high performance care range comes in three separate products, each designed to protect, clean or condition. The Footwear Cleaner is suitable for use on all types of footwear. It is made up of a scrub cleaner, developed using latest skin care technology. Its light beaded material ensures the removal of dirt and other residues, leaving footwear in prime condition for the next stage of care. Dubarry Footwear Conditioner provides the next level, and is suitable for use on all smooth and soft grain leathers. It is water based, and its flurochemical properties ensure leather will return to its original look. It offers water repellence and high levels of oil and stain resistance for future wear. ‘Footwear Protector Spray’ completes the cleaning process. The spray is unique to Dubarry with a patent pending, and will work on all types of footwear. ‘Protector Spray’ is the world’s first water based flurochemical spray for footwear. The spray is extremely durable and restores a water repellent finish that offers high resistance to oil and stains. These products retail at £5.95 each.
