shoe spray

Sneaker waterproofing mist

Shoe spray is a product applied to footwear for protection or freshening.

Protective sprays create a barrier against water, stains, or dirt: I hit my suede boots with shoe spray before the rainy season.

Deodorizing sprays neutralize odors inside shoes.

The term covers both types, with context clarifying which is meant.
